PRE CARE

Brow Tattoo Pre Care

• It is highly recommended that you follow Meggan Aesthetics Pre & Post Care instructions to ensure the best possible results and longevity of your tattoo. This information acts as a guideline only. Each client’s skin responds differently both in how long it takes to heal and the number of sessions needed for colour retention and desired results. It is important that you take good care of your brows while healing and beyond.

• Pre-care instructions must be followed to limit bleeding and skin sensitivities during the service. Excessive bleeding and sensitivity during the procedure will dilute and expel the pigment color and lead to poor results.

• The skin must be free of all irritations including blemishes, eczema, and psoriasis.

• Must be off Accutane medication for one year prior to getting a Cosmetic Tattoo.

• Stop taking Fish Oil, Vitamin C, Glucosamine, Evening Primrose Oil, Ginger, one week prior to your appointment as they thin the blood and prevent the pigment from implanting correctly, meaning your tattoo may heal patchy.

• Discontinue the use of any anti-aging, skin brightening or anti-acne skincare products. Particularly those that contain Alpha Hydroxy (AHA), Vitamin A, Retinol. Ideally, do not use these products for 30 days prior to your appointment. Once your tattoo has healed under the skin surface (approximately 6 weeks following your final session) you may resume your usual skin care routine.

• Do not schedule any facials, microdermabrasion, microneedling, peels or laser treatments for at least 4 weeks prior to your appointment.

• Do not have cosmetic injections on the forehead for at least four weeks prior to your appointment.

• Please avoid any type of blood thinning medication for a minimum of 72 hours prior to your procedure unless is unsafe to do so for your health. Please ask your doctor before stopping any prescription medications

• Do not work out on the day of the procedure.

• Avoid sun tanning or tanning beds for 2 weeks prior to procedure. If you show up to your appointment with a sunburn you will need to reschedule.

• Do not tweeze, thread, wax, or tint 1 week prior to the procedure.

• Scars from surgery or injury must be healed for at least one year prior to service.

• Do not drink alcohol 24 hours prior to your procedure

• Do not consume coffee or other caffeine products 24 hours prior.

• Please note that you will be more sensitive during your menstrual cycle.
