BEFORE MICROBLADING
REQUIREMENTS BEFORE MICROBLADING PROCEDURE
Follow these instructions to maximize your results & avoid rescheduling when you show up.
Vaccines/Immunizations - please ensure your cosmetic tattoo appointment is scheduled a minimum of 14 days either BEFORE or AFTER to avoid any potential immune reactions.
No working out or any activity that will cause sweating the day of and for 7 days after the procedure.
No fish oil, aspirin, niacin, vitamin E or C, or ibuprofen (these are blood thinners) 48-72 hours prior unless otherwise directed by a physician.Tylenol is ok.
No waxing or tinting eyebrows 3 days before your appointment.
If you are on blood thinners I will not be able to do this procedure.
Procedure will NOT be performed if you are pregnant or nursing.
No botox or fillers 4 weeks prior or after procedure
No tanning or excessive sun one week prior. If you come to your appointment with a sunburn you will not be able to get microblading.
No Retin A, retinols for 7 days prior. The use of these and other anti-aging/acne creams, or serums containing acids after the brows have healed will fade brows prematurely
No Accutane for 1 year. NO exceptions.
No alcohol, coffee/tea or caffeine (even decaf), soda, or energy drinks 24 - 48 hrs. before procedure. Caffeine is a natural blood thinner causing you to bleed excessively during the procedure. It also makes your nerve endings more sensitive and prevents you from numbing.
No chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or resurfacing facial treatments 60 days before or after procedure (brows will peel quicker due to chemicals traveling under the skin).
Being on your menstrual cycle can cause hypersensitivity and the procedure can be more painful.
The procedure will NOT be performed if you have any lesions, irritation, or pimples. Moles are to be removed prior, and need to heal 1 month before microblading.
There is no guarantee how your skin will heal and take to the pigments. Every client has unique skin and some may take to the pigment better than others.
Other Contraindications: Any medical conditions that can affect your healing process and/or make your blood thinner will have to have a doctor's note before you can book and receive a microblading service.
Conditions such as diabetes, cancer, autoimmune disease, or hemophilia, also if you are undergoing chemotherapy, allergic to lidocaine, or on blood thinners or any other medications will require a doctor's note
