✨ HIFU Aftercare Instructions

• If you have erythema (redness) and heat after treatment, you can apply cold compresses at home.

• Use a gentle cleanser, moisturizer and sunscreen of SPF 40+ daily. Wear sunscreen every day, year-round!

• Avoid intense exercise for 48 hours post-treatment, as this will increase redness and inflammation of the skin, potentially delaying the healing process.

• Avoid exfoliation and products with active ingredients for 1 week after treatment.

• Tenderness/numbness along the jawline can last up to 1 week.

• You may take plain Tylenol for pain relief after the treatment.

✨ Micropigmentation Aftercare Instructions

 

Please read carefully to ensure optimal results and safe healing.

​

☀️ Pro Tip:

Once your skin is completely healed, always apply SPF 30–50 when sun exposure. Sun exposure will cause the pigment to fade more quickly.

​

🗓 Immediate Aftercare Timeline

Day 1 – Day of Treatment

  • Before bed, gently cleanse the treated area using a barely damp Q-tip or cotton round (do not soak).

  • For lip procedures, apply the aftercare ointment you provided immediately after cleansing and reapply frequently throughout the day to maintain moisture.

Days 2–3

  • Gently cleanse the area morning and evening with the provided cleanser and a damp Q-tip or cotton round.

  • Do not scrub or rub. Pat gently and keep your hands clean when touching the area.

  • For lips, continue applying your aftercare ointment as often as needed.

Days 4–14

  • If the area feels dry or tight, apply a very thin layer of the aftercare cream after washing with a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser.
    ▸ The area should not appear greasy or shiny—if it does, you’ve applied too much.

  • Lips may continue with regular ointment use as needed.

​

❗ In Case of Infection:

If you notice signs of infection (increased redness, swelling, pus, etc.), seek medical attention immediately.

​

🚫 Avoid the Following for 10 Days After Your Procedure:

  • Sweating, working out, or playing sports

  • Swimming or soaking in hot tubs, saunas, or Jacuzzis

  • Sun tanning or salon tanning

  • Laser treatments, chemical peels, or products with Retin-A or Glycolic Acid

  • Picking, scratching, or peeling the treated area (this will affect pigment retention and may cause scarring)

  • Heavy-duty cleaning (e.g., garages, basements) due to airborne dust/debris

  • Spicy foods, smoking, or alcohol in excess

  • Driving open-air vehicles like convertibles, boats, bikes, or motorcycles

  • Touching the area unnecessarily

  • Applying unapproved creams or ointments
    ▸ Do not use antibiotic ointments, gels, or vitamin creams—they can pull pigment from the skin.

​

🚿 Showering Instructions

  • Limit showers to 5 minutes to minimize steam exposure.

  • Keep your face/procedure area out of direct water while showering.

  • Wash your hair at the end of the shower, and keep water away from the treated area.

  • For brows: cover the area with a dry cloth and use cleansing wipes or a washcloth to wash the face carefully.

 

🩹 What to Expect During the Healing Process

​

Days 1–4:

Pigment will appear very dark and bold. This is normal and temporary—pigment sits on top of your skin and will soften over time. Some swelling and pigment transfer on cotton swabs is also normal.

Days 5–7:

You may notice light flaking or dry skin that resembles dandruff. This is the top layer, naturally exfoliating and not pigment loss—don’t panic.

Days 8–12:

The pigment may appear to have faded entirely. This is a normal part of the healing cycle. Please trust the process.

Days 14–28:

Colour begins to resurface as the pigment settles into the skin. Some patchiness or uneven tones may be visible—this is expected.

 

💉 Touch-Up Timing

Your perfecting session should be booked no sooner than 5 weeks and no later than 10 weeks post-procedure.
Appointments after 10 weeks may incur an additional fee.
