Permanent makeup: main contraindications to tattooing

Every woman dreams of looking well-groomed anywhere and at any time. Therefore, she spends a lot of time on facial care. At home, these are masks, scrubs, applying moisturizers and decorative cosmetics.

In recent years, the beauty industry has paid close attention to eyebrows. Now a clear shape and expressive color are a sign of well-groomed and style. To tidy up your eyebrows at home, use paints, powders, and gels. In turn, beauty salons are ready to offer professional assistance. One of the services is the application of permanent makeup.

Permanent eyebrow makeup

When should you not tattoo your eyebrows?

Eyebrow tattooing is a long-term correction of the appearance of the eyebrow arch, achieved by introducing a coloring pigment under the skin. The effect lasts from 2 to 7 years. Since the procedure involves violating the integrity of the upper layers of the skin, it has a number of absolute and relative contraindications.

Contraindications:

AbsoluteRelative
  • chronic diseases of the hematopoietic system;
  • autoimmune disorders;
  • problems associated with disruption of the endocrine system;
  • oncology;
  • exacerbation of current diseases;
  • liver and kidney pathologies;
  • HIV and AIDS.
  • pregnancy, lactation period.
  • menstruation;
  • high/low blood pressure;
  • undergoing a course of drug treatment;
  • rehabilitation after serious illnesses and surgical interventions;
  • the presence of benign tumors;
  • alcohol or drug intoxication.
  • poor health, regardless of the cause of its occurrence.

Eyebrow tattooing, the contraindications to which are relative, can be performed after they have been eliminated. However, there are people whose pigment does not take root, despite the absence of restrictions on the procedure.

There is still no clear explanation for this phenomenon, but doctors are inclined to believe that the cause of an unsatisfactory result may be a violation of metabolic processes in the layers of the epidermis. Such deviations have no external signs and are difficult to identify.

The post-effect of taking hormonal drugs or weakened immunity due to infectious diseases can affect the course of the procedure. If even after repeated correction the body rejects the pigment, but the client does not have any contraindications, he should consult a doctor.

The main thing is to contact a good specialist. If the master is truly experienced, he will spend even more time on preparation than on the procedure itself. This will help you carefully choose the appropriate option.

To be honest, I have rarely met good shooters, and this option will not always be appropriate.
I would advise leaning toward filling the interlash space. Remember that permanent makeup will begin to deteriorate after a while and become less clear, so you will have to go for correction. Permanent eye makeup has been around for a long time, but its popularity is not fading. This is not surprising, because this procedure makes life easier.

After it, a woman looks beautiful in any situation, she does not need to worry that mascara will run or the eyeliner will fray. The main thing is to carefully choose a specialist, be interested in his experience, and pay attention to the sterility of the procedure.

Contraindications to permanent eyebrow makeup

Permanent eyebrow makeup has a significant disadvantage - many contraindications for its implementation. Its peculiarity is that makeup is applied not for a short period of time, but for a long time - up to 2-3 years.

The procedure involves introducing paint under the skin into the upper layers to create a durable, indelible pattern. There are advantages of tattooing - the ability to make the color brighter, there is no need to tint the skin in the future. You can simulate the presence of thick hair.

Indications for this procedure include sparse eyebrows, too light hair, fine lines, asymmetry, and lack of hair in some places. Using a permanent, you can make any shape and visually add thickness.

In some cases, such manipulation poses a health risk, especially for people with chronic diseases. You cannot perform manipulation if you have a blood clotting disorder, diabetes, viral diseases, nervous system disorders, or skin diseases.

Relative restrictions include pregnancy or lactation, and a tendency to develop acne. Manipulation should not be carried out if there is high blood pressure, injuries to the skin, or intoxication. Manipulation is not carried out until adulthood.

There may be side effects after the procedure is completed. This is swelling that goes away on its own with proper care. In addition, the skin can take a long time to heal if it is not properly cared for. The duration of the result depends on the characteristics of the body, metabolism, and care. After tattooing, some restrictions apply.

Permanent eyebrow makeup during pregnancy

PM and pregnancy

Many clients in the “position” who regularly carry out the permanent procedure, while pregnant, ask doctors a question: is it possible for pregnant women to have permanent eyebrow makeup? Experts have ambivalent views on the procedure of permanent makeup during pregnancy. The reason for this is not the presence of contraindications, but the individual reaction of a woman’s body during pregnancy.

Cosmetologists explain their concerns about performing permanent makeup during this period with the following reasons:

  • Painful effect. To achieve the desired result you will have to be patient. The procedure is quite painful. Everyone's pain threshold is different, and painkillers do not always have the desired effect. Therefore, for overly sensitive clients, a visit to a cosmetologist can have negative consequences in the form of miscarriage, bleeding and even premature birth;
  • Allergy. Even natural dyes cannot be completely excluded from the status of allergens, because individual intolerance to the dye may occur;
  • A categorical ban on carrying out the procedure by an unqualified cosmetologist in inappropriate conditions. The risk of infection in this case and, as a consequence, the occurrence of an inflammatory process is too high.

Permanent eyebrow makeup during breastfeeding (gb)

PM and GW

The period of breastfeeding, as well as the period of pregnancy, according to experts, is a relative contraindication to permanent makeup. Why cosmetologists are careful in this case:

  • No one has conducted research on the effect of coloring pigments on the baby’s body, so we cannot say that it is safe for the child;
  • The hormonal background of the mother during breastfeeding undergoes significant changes. As a result, the threshold of sensitivity to pain changes, which can cause severe discomfort with subsequent cessation of lactation. In addition, changes in hormonal levels can affect the effect of the pigment, which can quickly disintegrate or give the eyebrows an unintended tint.

Permanent eyebrow makeup during menstruation

PM and menstruation

It turns out that “critical” days during the permanent makeup procedure can also affect the result of coloring and have some dangerous consequences for the client’s health. Things to remember:

  • Particularly painful periods can worsen the already poor state of health at the time of the procedure. Prolonged pain syndrome with the effect of its intensification can lead to fainting, so experts recommend rescheduling your visit to a cosmetologist;
  • The period of menstruation is characterized by a decrease in leukocytes in the blood. They are needed in large quantities for minor skin damage at the time of the procedure. Otherwise, this threatens the occurrence of inflammatory processes on the skin and a long healing period;
  • “Critical” days may be accompanied by swelling, which also occurs on the face. The result of the procedure in this condition may be makeup defects in the form of asymmetrical lines and uneven coloring;
  • The likelihood of allergic reactions during this period also increases;
  • During menstruation, blood clotting decreases; with punctures and cuts, its manifestation is much more intense than on ordinary days. There is a possibility of blood mixing with the pigment, which will lead to a decrease in color saturation and poor adhesion to the skin.

How much does permanent makeup cost?

Today, the permanent makeup procedure is becoming increasingly popular among women, so there are a large number of people willing to provide this service. On the Internet you can see hundreds of proposals on this topic, but there are only a few worthy masters! In no case should permanent makeup be equal in cost to services such as eyelash extensions, nails, or hair coloring. A good artist will not do tattoos cheaply.

Absolute contraindications

Eyebrow tattooing is not possible for everyone. This procedure is associated with a violation of the integrity of the skin; for this reason, experts identify a number of conditions when its implementation may be prohibited.

There are absolute and relative contraindications to tattooing; if the latter (after the acute period, with the doctor’s permission), allow the procedure to be carried out, then the former prohibit it forever.

Let's consider absolute contraindications to permanent makeup.

Diabetes

Eyelid tattooing is prohibited if a person has diabetes. With this pathology the following is observed:

  • disruption of normal metabolism;
  • a small network of blood vessels and nerves is damaged;
  • any cuts take quite a long time to heal;
  • the duration of the recovery period increases;
  • the risks of infection increase;
  • the pigment disappears from the body much faster than in a healthy person.

Permanent makeup is allowed only if there is a normal blood sugar level, but only after receiving permission from the attending physician.

Somatic neurological psychological diseases

The presence of mental illnesses can cause movements that a person is unable to control. Such movements can lead to the cosmetologist ruining the design, touching the client’s eyes with a blade or tattoo machine, which can cause serious injury.

Low blood clotting

A low blood clotting rate occurs in diseases such as:

  • anemia;
  • hemophilia;
  • leukemia;
  • leukemia

All these pathologies can cause severe bleeding, which carries risks for the patient. In addition, the constantly released blood will contribute to the premature release of coloring pigment from under the skin, making manipulations carried out by a cosmetologist difficult.

Similar problems may arise when a client has problems with frequent increases in normal blood pressure readings.

Tendency to form keloid scars

The body's increased tendency to form scar tissue, keloids, can play a cruel joke. During permanent treatment, the master makes tiny incisions on the surface of the skin; if this pathology is present, then the growth of scar tissue will begin. This may cause a violation of the dye introduction technology.

If there are scars or scars in the eyebrow area, the specialist recommends abandoning tattooing, simply periodically masking them with decorative cosmetics.

Oncological diseases

Neoplasms of various kinds indicate an extreme degree of weakening of the immune system and internal infection.

The presence of moles, papillomas, warts, and other formations in the area of ​​future influence of a cosmetologist is a strict contraindication to permanent treatment.

HIV AIDS hepatitis

The presence of diseases such as HIV, AIDS, hepatitis is a clear prohibition for carrying out any invasive procedures. Tattooing with such pathologies creates a real danger for the artist to become infected.

In addition, the immunity of a person with such diseases is most often seriously weakened, which will create certain difficulties in the rehabilitation period.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

The period of pregnancy and breastfeeding is a time when any invasive procedures not authorized by a doctor should be prohibited.

The first trimester, especially when pregnancy has a difficult course, is a time when a woman should especially take care of herself. Therefore, any stress or traumatic procedures should be cancelled. The second trimester is safer for such procedures. however, unless there is an urgent need for tattooing, it is better not to do it.

A difficult pregnancy at any stage is a clear ban on any cosmetic procedures.

Why is tattooing prohibited during breastfeeding or pregnancy:

  • pain can cause stress in the expectant mother;
  • prolonged stress can tone the uterus, which can lead to premature birth and miscarriage;
  • constantly changing hormonal levels can affect the body’s sensitivity to coloring pigments and cause their complete or partial rejection;
  • the use of painkillers during pregnancy and lactation is prohibited, so the woman will have to endure pain, which will cause serious stress, the negative impact of which was mentioned above;
  • dyes that have penetrated into the mother’s body may also end up in breast milk, which will not benefit the baby’s fragile body.

Reviews

Reviews will help you decide on permanent eye makeup. Below are some people's opinions regarding this procedure:

IRINA, 31 YEARS OLD:

“I decided to get a tattoo, but I didn’t dare for a long time, because I had seen enough photos before and after the unsuccessful procedure and read reviews.
Therefore, I postponed going to the master, I was very afraid. But there were also positive responses, and their number was much greater. I realized that the main thing is to find a good specialist.

Almost 2 years have passed, and the tattoo looks perfect. I am active, constantly away, so I often need to quickly look perfect, which is no longer a problem. Even after a long trip I look great.”

DARIA, 27 YEARS OLD:

“For me, tattooing has become a real godsend.
I suffer from allergies to cosmetics, even expensive and hypoallergenic ones (as the manufacturer promises). As a result, itching and redness appear. Tinting the eyelashes did not give the desired effect. It was then that permanent eye makeup saved me - winged eyeliner with shading. I look flawless, as you can see in the before and after photos. This is the second time I’ve done it.”

LYUDMILA, 29 YEARS OLD:

“Previously, getting ready in the morning took a lot of time. But about two years ago I tattooed both my eyes and eyebrows. Now I wake up immediately looking beautiful.

The first time it was a little painful, but the correction was easier, with minor discomfort. Another plus is that you don’t have to buy cosmetics.

I did permanent eye makeup for the lower and upper eyelids with shading, and I look great both in life and in photos.”

Relative restrictions

In these cases, it is not recommended to apply this type of makeup for some time. This restriction applies if there are viral colds that undermine human health.

Eyebrows should be dyed when there are no acne or purulent rashes on the skin. Permanent makeup can be done during the period of complete recovery, otherwise it will be harmful to the skin and may further aggravate the situation.

If the patient has previously been diagnosed with a malignant tumor, eyebrows can be tinted only after a full consultation with a doctor, who must give his consent in writing.

People with blood pressure problems should approach the procedure with special caution. First of all, this limitation applies to patients suffering from hypertension. The fact is that microblading or eyebrow tattooing can provoke a surge in pressure that is harmful to the body, so before the procedure you should bring your condition back to normal. It is recommended to take a drug that has a hypotensive effect.

Painting is not recommended during a course of medications that have a strong effect on the body (taking antibiotics, anticoagulants, corticosteroids). This procedure should be carried out no earlier than 14 days after the course of treatment is completed. It all depends on the dosage regimen and the characteristics of the drugs.

It is forbidden to apply makeup to a nursing mother and pregnant women - clinical trials in this area were carried out only on animals, but the ban applies to people. Thus, breastfeeding and pregnancy are the time during which any intervention in the human body can cause a negative reaction. Any manipulation is carried out only in cases of extreme necessity (for example, for medicinal purposes, when the benefits outweigh the potential harm). Since eyebrow tinting is not a priority procedure, it should be postponed until a safer period.

Other contraindications include being a minor, menstruation, and plastic surgery performed in the area of ​​the planned tattoo.

The procedure cannot be performed on minor patients unless they have pronounced cosmetic defects. If a person has previously undergone plastic surgery, before applying permanent makeup, some time must pass (at least six months) for all tissue cells to completely heal and the condition to stabilize.

During menstruation, the body of a girl and woman has increased sensitivity, which intensifies any pain syndrome. In addition, at this time there is a decrease in blood clotting, so such intervention should be postponed until the end of menstruation, it is best to move it to the middle of the cycle.

If there are papillomas, moles or warts on the skin, they should be removed before applying the product to these areas. People with herpes, allergic diseases, and autoimmune disorders should approach the procedure with special caution.

In order to protect yourself as much as possible from undesirable consequences, it is initially recommended to conduct a simple test of the tolerability of the drugs (pigments and agents) that will be applied during the procedure.

Despite the fact that today eyebrow tattooing is considered a safe and convenient procedure, it has limitations - serious diseases, rashes and allergic reactions come to the fore.

How is the correction done?

It is not always possible to achieve a positive result the first time. That is why experts advise going for correction. With its help you can achieve the following results:

  1. If there are unfilled places that became visible after rehabilitation, correction will allow them to be fixed.
  2. Sometimes patients are not satisfied with the resulting color, which can also be corrected.

Basically, for young girls, one session will be enough for a positive result, which cannot be said about adulthood.

Often older women need correction. It is carried out faster than the main session, which significantly reduces its cost. It is recommended to go for it a couple of months after the first tattoo.

How long does permanent eye makeup last? This is a common question. It all depends on the individual characteristics of the person. Basically, it is accurately preserved for 3-4 years. But in some cases the effect lasts longer.

Carrying out laser correction

Laser correction can improve the result. A special laser is used for this.

It helps to add brightness and make lines clearer. Basically, such a correction is recommended to be carried out about a month after the main session. The main thing is not to delay going to the specialist.

It is not necessary to change the shape during laser correction. Using a laser you can simply make the color brighter.

Alternative

The procedure may not always be carried out successfully, which is why the desired result may not be achieved. When the resulting eyebrows disappoint a girl, she can use the following tattoo removal techniques:

  1. Use of chemicals, laser. It is important to take into account the depth of the pigment.
  2. The use of a special solution called remover. It is administered in a manner similar to tattooing, using a remover. After this, a chemical reaction occurs inside, leading to the removal of pigment to the surface of the skin.
  3. Softening the shade using improvised methods: a special suspension, iodine, hydrogen peroxide. These methods are characterized by extremely low efficiency and the need for repeated exposure.

Each girl decides independently whether to get a permanent treatment, taking into account the characteristics of her own skin, the appearance of the brow ridges, and the need for this kind of treatment.

You can only trust your own face to a professional who has the appropriate level of qualifications and experience who receives clients in the salon.

When this type of manipulation is not suitable, you can turn your attention to alternative techniques for changing the contour and tone of the brow ridges.

Biotattoo

The color of the eyebrows can be changed without much difficulty using natural dyes based on henna and basma. This is a kind of coloring that allows you to obtain a variety of shades. They depend on how the plant was dried and how it was crushed.

Masters who practice biotattooing are armed with four basic tones from black to light brown. The required color scheme is selected based on the client’s color type. To get a natural result, the master mixes several substances together.

Using henna gives a lasting result that lasts up to a month; the paint is washed off from the skin surface a little earlier, which requires additional drawing of the hairs with a pencil.

An important feature of henna is that it not only colors the hair, but additionally strengthens its structure, gives the hair a well-groomed appearance and shine.

Biotattoo has no contraindications; it is approved for use by pregnant women and nursing mothers. However, like any other product that has a natural composition, it can provoke the development of allergic reactions.

To prevent dangerous consequences, you need to conduct a preliminary test. To do this, a small amount of powder is diluted as needed, then applied to the elbow and washed off after 20 minutes. Afterwards, it remains to track the occurrence of negative manifestations, in the form of irritation, redness, and peeling. If there are none, the product can be used to color the brow ridges.

Features of the use of natural dyes:

  • dilution according to instructions;
  • application in two or three layers;
  • allowing each layer to dry completely, after which the next one can be applied;
  • removal with wet discs moistened with water;
  • lubrication with natural oil.

Due to the fact that the dye does not penetrate deep into the skin, it is gradually washed out, completely disappearing from the hairs after 3-4 weeks. It disappears from the skin earlier, after about a week.

An important advantage of the technique is that it is easy to do with your own hands, at home, without the need for additional herbs in the salon.

Painting

This method is similar to biotattooing, only permanent synthetic dyes are used. Professional paint requires preliminary mixing of the base tone and oxidizing agent. It lasts up to three weeks on the hairs.

This technique is easy to do at home, however, to get the perfect result, it is better to contact a professional eyebrow artist.

Daily eyebrow makeup

In addition to techniques that provide a long-lasting effect, you can resort to creating makeup using modern cosmetic products.

You can use it to tint your eyebrows:

  • shadows;
  • pencils;
  • lipstick;
  • tint.

The only drawback of this method is the need to apply cosmetic products to the face every day.

How to behave before and after the procedure

Before getting eyebrow tattooing, you should not drink alcohol the day before, and it is not recommended to drink tea and coffee on the day of the procedure. For several days, analgesics, vitamins C, and aspirin are excluded. It is also prohibited to pluck eyebrows.

Depending on your skin type and body characteristics, eyebrow tattooing may take several days to heal. But if the procedure was performed by a professional, your face will look normal, so you can attend school or work without fear for your appearance.

Pigments used for permanent makeup

I work with proven European manufacturing companies that have passed international certification. Their products fully comply with European quality and safety standards.

For permanent makeup, pigments are used that differ slightly in properties from pigments for body tattoos. They are typically composed of natural inorganic or organic components, unlike tattoo pigments, which are almost entirely composed of organic, synthetic substances.

Moreover, the external factors to which the facial skin is exposed and its more abundant blood supply contribute to the rapid removal of finely dispersed pigment. The most unpleasant phenomenon in permanent makeup is the uneven discoloration of pigment in the skin. The artist can only approximately say how long you will have a good quality tattoo and suggest the timing of its renewal.

What not to do after eyebrow tattooing or permanent makeup

There are some restrictions after eyebrow tattooing. Since the skin is severely damaged, you should carefully care for the dermis after the procedure. Until the crust appears, you should not wash your face; you can only wipe your face with a damp cotton pad.

Until complete healing, you should not do makeup, use scrubs for washing, or peel. Contraindications to permanent makeup done recently are tanning and being in a sauna.

Side effects after the procedure may include allergic reactions in the form of itching and irritation. In addition, the color may appear unevenly due to the fact that the crust has been torn off and the body rejects the paint. Swelling and redness may occur. This reaction is natural and normally goes away within 48 hours. The appearance of peeling and crust formation at the site of damage is considered normal.

Some time before the procedure begins, you should stop drinking tea, coffee, and energy drinks. Do not sunbathe or do deep cleansing of the skin. After the manipulation, it is forbidden to visit baths, steam the skin, play sports, scratch and rub the cover, or tear off scabs.

Stages of the permanent makeup procedure

• Consultation; • Sketch drawing (from 10 to 30 minutes); • Application of anesthesia (15-20 minutes); • Micropigmentation procedure (introducing pigment under the skin, 1-1.5 hours); • Correction is an incomplete permanent makeup procedure, during which the result obtained during the main procedure is brought to perfection. Correction allows you to distribute the pigment more evenly, eliminate all color gaps, increase the brightness of the pigment (if desired), correct the shape and ensure a longer lasting effect of color preservation. Correction is carried out no earlier than 30 days after the main procedure (it is during this time that the damaged epidermis is completely restored). Carrying out correction at an earlier date contributes to additional trauma to the skin, which will only worsen the initial result.

The following recommendations must be followed before the procedure

•If you have an allergy, do an allergy test to determine pigment tolerance a few days before the procedure; • Stop sun and UV insolation, as well as the use of fatty nourishing creams for 7 days; • 48 hours before - when performing a procedure on the lips, start taking an antiviral drug (acyclovir 400 mg × 2 times a day, for 5 days); • 24 hours before: - do not take blood thinning drugs (aspirin-containing); - exclude stimulating drinks (tea, coffee, Coca-Cola, etc.), heavy, too salty foods, hot spices, so as not to retain fluid in the body. On the eve of the procedure, limit fluid intake to reduce swelling; -exclude alcoholic drinks; - if possible, avoid smoking (since nicotine reduces the effect of anesthesia). • The day before you need to have a good rest and sleep; • You can also easily “scrub” your facial skin the day before to remove excess stratum corneum, and avoid applying greasy nourishing creams.

Complete restoration of the skin after the permanent makeup procedure, pigment stabilization occurs within 30 days.

Bad time for the procedure

Eyebrow tattooing, contraindications to which, in most cases, are justified by health problems, is not recommended to be done in the summer.

There are several reasons for this recommendation:

  • high air temperature promotes active sweating, which complicates tissue healing after the procedure;
  • swimming in open water afterwards can cause infection;
  • dusty air, saturated with pollen from flowering plants, is a direct source of infection.

It is also not recommended to carry out the procedure in winter. Icy wind, snow and prickly rain cause peeling of the skin, which can reduce the efforts of the specialist to zero. The best time for tattooing is considered to be the beginning of autumn. Comfortable air temperature, a vitamin-rich body and a strong immune system are the guarantees of a good result.

Possible health consequences after eyebrow tattooing

Negative health consequences after eyebrow tattooing are possible in two cases:

  • ignorance or deliberate concealment of the presence of contraindications;
  • unprofessionalism of the tattoo artist.

Both options are fraught with the occurrence of allergic reactions, the risk of a herpes outbreak, infection with viral or infectious diseases, and problems with healing of the treated area.

This can only be avoided if you responsibly choose a specialist and place for the procedure and honestly answer all questions about your health before the session begins.

Eyebrow tattooing is not the easiest procedure, which has many contraindications, and it is better to do it in cosmetic or tattoo parlors from certified artists. When choosing, it is recommended to rely on the establishment’s rating, customer reviews and examples of completed work.

Anesthesia

Any self-respecting master is obliged to offer you anesthesia. If you are offered to do the procedure without anesthesia, it means that the specialist is simply saving on pain relief. In fact, anesthesia is not required everywhere in permanent makeup; for example, when tattooing eyebrows, many people do not feel anything, and the procedure is completely painless without anesthesia. But lips and eyes are much more sensitive. In my studio, I prefer to numb all areas of permanent makeup to reduce any pain to a minimum, because... The more relaxed a person is, the more comfortable the procedure will be for him. I use modern drugs and high-quality equipment with a gentle operating mode and you will feel almost nothing.

Prohibitions after the procedure

When wondering whether it is possible to play sports after eyebrow tattooing, one cannot help but consider other restrictions that must be strictly observed during this period of time.

If you do not comply with the restrictions set by the cosmetologist, there is a possibility of the following complications:

  • introduction of infection;
  • pigment leaching;
  • development of the inflammatory process.

The final result of permanent makeup depends not only on the professionalism and experience of the artist, but also on how fully the care measures are followed during the rehabilitation period.

Limitations on recovery time after tattooing:

  1. Rub the skin with your hands and dry with a towel. This can cause infection in the wound, partial disappearance of the dye, and its paleness.
  2. Wash or otherwise wet the tattoo site during the first 24 hours. Introducing the dye to a shallow depth can cause it to quickly disappear from the eyebrow area. It is better to postpone direct contact of eyebrows with water until the resulting crust dries.
  3. Use decorative and skincare products. They can delay the healing process of the skin. You should especially beware of products that contain AHA acids.
  4. Forcibly remove crusts from the surface of the brow ridges. If you remove the crust before it is ready to separate from the skin, you can disrupt tissue regeneration processes. This is fraught with bleeding, which will wash away part of the pigment and cause infection. The crusts should fall off on their own, this will be evidence of the normal course of the recovery process.
  5. Visit saunas, steam baths, swimming pools: if the crusts are exposed to heat or humidity for a long time, they may steam and fall off ahead of schedule.
  6. Visit the solarium, sunbathe in the open sunlight. Exposure to ultraviolet rays can change the shade of a tattoo, especially if it occurs in the first two weeks after its creation. For this reason, you should use sunscreen before going outside.
  7. Use lotions and creams containing alcohol to cleanse the skin. They can cause the shade of the injected dye to change color or become completely discolored. Such cosmetics significantly prolong the healing time of tissues. For this reason, cosmetologists recommend treating eyebrows first with Chlorhexidine or another antiseptic, then moisturizing with Vaseline, or using another healing composition.
  8. Shave the hairs and pluck them with tweezers. These manipulations are prohibited for the reason that they can cause damage to the skin.
  9. Play sports, go to the gym. It is better to refrain from such activities so that the constant sweat does not affect the premature washout of the tattoo.

Permanent eyebrow makeup is a serious procedure, which should be approached only after assessing all its advantages and disadvantages. Manipulations can be carried out only after completely making sure that there are no contraindications. After permanent treatment, it is important to properly care for your own skin, then the result of the tattoo will not disappoint, but, on the contrary, will delight you for a long time.

Eye care after the procedure (10 rules)

Of course, the result largely depends on the master himself, but it is also important to properly care for the affected area. And this is very easy to do, just remember the following rules:

  • For about 7 days you need to pay special attention to the eye area: clean it with Chlorhexidine (a cotton swab is moistened in it);
  • use hydrocortisone ointment, it will help remove swelling and redness;
  • use drops in the eyes that reduce redness and discomfort, if such symptoms are present (this could be, for example, Vidin);
  • use anti-inflammatory creams as a preventive measure;
  • do not wear makeup;
  • do not go to the bathhouse;
  • do not rub the affected area;
  • do not peel off any crusts that may appear;
  • spend less time in the sun;
  • use products with UV protection.

Initially, permanent eye makeup applied seems very intense, but don’t worry, it’s temporary.

A couple of days will pass, after which crusts will form on it, and then it is important not to remove them mechanically - that is, not to rip them off. It will take about a week for them to peel off on their own.

Such a short rehabilitation is worth going through, because in the end you will be able to look great always.
