MICROBLADING & PMU AFTERCARE
What to expect:
Your new PMU (Permanent Makeup) will look darker immediately after your treatment, over the next 2 weeks the colour will soften and fade by up to 50%. Some redness, soreness and swelling is completely normal – this usually subsides within a day or two. The area will get darker in the days following your appointment, and the Permanent Makeup will scab over and go dry. Eventually the scabs will begin to fall off (DO NOT pick or pull) and at this stage the area will look patchy, this is completely normal. You must wait 4 weeks until the area is fully healed to see your results, at this point you will come in for another session to perfect the PMU and make any adjustments should there be any.
In order to get beautiful healed results, it is imperative that you follow the aftercare advice given. Failing to do so could result in poor retention, infection and even scarring.
