After Care Instructions

Swelling is normal after the procedure, this should not last over 12 hours after. 

CLEANSING THE FIRST TWO DAYS

For the first evening and following morning of your procedure, wipe the treated are with the provided antiseptic wipes. On the second day, the treated areas should be wiped down two times a day: Morning and evening – again only using the provided wipes. 

IMPORTANT

It is normal to be excited about your new color; however do not touch, pick, peel, tamper, scratch, rub, injure or remove the peeling in any way, you will damage the color and affect the retention. Let the skin naturally go through the healing and recovery process.  

A very thin layer of given ointment should be applied consistently throughout the day to the treatment area using a fresh Q-tip (do not use mineral oil or petroleum- based products such as Vaseline.) Applying too much ointment can lead to fading, and or the formation of clogged sebaceous glands (sebaceous bumps) or minor lymphatic fluid buildup - so a thin layer goes a long way. This will keep the area moist and accelerate the healing. Do not let the area dry out and crack, keep it moist at all times. Do not press or rub when applying ointment. 

FIRST 5 DAYS

• Do not touch, peel, tamper, rub, injure or remove the peeling in any way, if you do, you will experience a loss of color.
