PMU pre-care instructions

PMU PRE-CARE INSTRUCTIONS:

If you have any queries about the below, please let us know ASAP.

• It is recommended to eat something before your appointment to make sure your blood sugar levels stay stable during the procedure.

• Please do not wear any makeup (at least on and around your eyebrow area).

• Avoid alcohol for 24 hrs before your appointment. Alcohol can thin the blood, which can cause the skin to be hypersensitive and bleed easily.

• If you’re a coffee drinker, have your morning coffee weak and do not exceed that. It can make you jittery and cause hypersensitivity also.

• Avoid blood thinning medications for 72 hrs before your appointment. This includes ibuprofen, aspirin and fish oil tablets. Please consult your doctor if this is an issue.

• Make sure your face is not sunburnt

• If considering Botox, it is best to have your brow tattooing done first. If having Botox before your treatment, please do this at least 2 weeks before your appointment

• If you have been taking acne medications such as Accutane or Retin-A within the last year you have an altered skin condition that will not heal well after the procedure. It’s very important that you wait a year before tattooing the skin. Retinol and Vitamin A are very similar and should be discontinued to use a month prior to the procedure.
