Before You Book: What to Know First
Before booking your nano brow procedure, it’s important to take a moment to think through a few key factors to ensure this treatment aligns with your lifestyle, your skin, and your long‑term goals. Nano brows are a beautiful, low‑maintenance enhancement — but they’re still a cosmetic tattoo, and being fully prepared helps you get the best possible results.
No direct tanning 30 days before or after your procedure.
No retinols or anti-aging creams on the forehead area 30 days before and after your procedure. It WILL affect the results once restarted.
Avoid sweating for the first 10 days after the procedure.
No brow growth serums 30 days prior to your procedure and it is recommended that you not use these afterwards.
If you’ve ever had shingles on your face, this could cause a new breakout. Ask your physician if you should pre-medicate.
If you have eczema, psoriasis or dermatitis (constant flaking, itching or irritation) of the skin surrounding your eyebrows, you should wait for this to clear before proceeding with the procedure.
Please let me know if you are or have recently been treated for cancer or are taking immunosuppressant medications.
Avoid Caffeine and Alcohol: Refrain from consuming these for a least 24 hours before your appointment to reduce bleeding.
Stay Hydrated and Rested: Make sure you’re well hydrated and have a good night’s sleep so your skin is in the best shape.
Wear Your Daily Makeup: Arrive wearing your usual brow makeup so I can see how you like your brows styled day to day.
Check for Skin Issues: Ensure there are no rashes or blemishes around your eyebrow area before your appointment. Please notify if you do.
How to Prepare For Your Brow Appointment
Essential Brow Aftercare Guide
I take a very conservative approach in the initial procedure. I like to see how the pigment settles with your skin before we move on to the second step. Some patchiness during the healing is totally normal and everything will come together just like it should-soft, natural and beautifully you.
How to Care for Your New Brows
You can gently cleanse your brows with a makeup wipe or baby wipe to keep them fresh.
You might notice a little pigment on the wipe-this is totally normal and just excess pigment on the surface.
Apply a very thin layer of the provided cream with a Q-tip-once in the morning and once in the evening.
Avoid over applying the cream, since too much moisture can affect the healing process.
Avoid touching the area with your fingers to reduce the risk of infection.
For the first 2 weeks of healing (starting the night of your procedure)
Your Post Procedure Do’s and Don’ts
Sweating (from exercise or heat)
Saunas or steam rooms
Direct water streams on your brows-just turn your head to the side when showering. It’s okay if a little water gets on them; just try to gently pat your brows dry with a clean towel.
What to Avoid in the First 10 Days:
What to Avoid in the First 30 Days:
Retin-A or anti-aging creams around the eyebrow area (resuming these can cause brows to fade quicker)
Direct sunlight and tanning
How to Protect Your Brows and When to Resume Other Activities:
Use a good SPF when you go outside.
Wear a hat if you’re in direct sun.
You can apply makeup after one week.
Wait at least 2 weeks before getting Botox, fillers or a facial.
What does the healing process look like?
Day 1
Brows will appear bold, dark and more defined immediately after your procedure. Mild redness or swelling is normal.
The First Week
Color May deepen and the skin can feel tight, dry or slightly itchy during this stage.
Light flaking may develop. Brows can appear patchy as the skin begins naturally exfoliating. Avoid picking at any scabbing.
Weeks 2-3
Weeks 3-4
Color gradually begins returning to a softer, natural appearance.
Touch-Up Appointment at 8-10 Weeks
Every person’s healing experience is unique. Your touch up refines the color, shape and density after the skin has healed.
