Brow Preparation

 

 

2 WEEKS BEFORE

  • Avoid tanning and tanning beds, skin that has experienced excessive sun exposure is in a state of recovery and therefore cannot be tattooed!

  • Stop applying retinoids in the area to be tattooed, as it temporarily thins the skin.

  • Stop tweezing/waxing your brows. We will need to see your natural hair growth and waxing can result in the skin being too sensitive for any semi permanent tattoo work.

  • Avoid forehead botox two weeks before & after brow tattoo appointment


1 WEEK BEFORE

  • Stop taking fish oils or omega supplements, vitamin C, magnesium supplements or any other supplements that can thin the blood


24 HOURS BEFORE

  • Do not consume any alcohol 24 hours before the appointment

  • Do not consume any caffeine 24 hours before the appointment. This includes coffee, tea, chocolate, coca-cola, and even ‘decaf’ coffee.

  • Avoid anti-inflammatories or any other medication that thins the blood, this is including but not limited to Aspirin, Advil or Ibuprofen (Tylenol is okay!)
