combo brows

Unlike traditional microblading, which creates hair-like strokes, Combo Brows include additional shading to provide more depth and dimension.

Ideal candidates are those looking for fuller brows, have thinning or sparse eyebrows, or want a more defined brow shape.

Immediate Aftercare (First 24-48 Hours)

1. Gentle Cleansing:
   • Gently clean the brow area with a mild, fragrance-free cleanser to remove lymph fluid or blood. Avoid using aggressive movements.
2. Avoid Water and Steam:
   • Keep the brows dry and avoid direct water contact, steam from showers, saunas, or steam cooking.
3. No Touching:
   • Avoid touching the brows unnecessarily to prevent infection and irritation.

First Week

4. Apply Healing Ointment:
   • Apply a recommended healing ointment or balm to the brows. This is typically done 2-3 times a day with a clean cotton swab.
5. Avoid Makeup and Skincare Products:
   • Do not apply makeup, creams, or serums on or around the brow area to prevent infection and color distortion.
6. Stay Out of the Sun:
   • Avoid direct sun exposure. If you must go outside, wear a hat to protect your brows from UV rays.
7. No Swimming or Soaking:
   • Avoid swimming pools, hot tubs, and soaking in the bath to prevent the brows from getting wet.

Second Week and Beyond

8. Avoid Exfoliation and Anti-Aging Products:
   • Do not use exfoliating products (like scrubs or acids) or anti-aging products (like retinol) near the brows, as they can fade the pigment.
9. Limit Physical Activity:
   • Reduce heavy physical activity to prevent excess sweating, especially in the first two weeks.
10. Sleep Carefully:
    • Try to sleep on your back to avoid pressure on your brows.

General Tips

11. Avoid Certain Activities:
    • Refrain from activities that might lead to excessive sweating, like intense workouts, for at least a week.
12. No Picking or Scratching:
    • Avoid picking or scratching the brows as they heal. Scabbing is normal, but picking can remove the pigment and damage the skin.
13. Monitor for Signs of Infection:
    • Keep an eye out for signs of infection, like excessive redness, swelling, or pus, and consult a professional if these occur.
14. Be Patient with Healing:
    • The healing process can vary. Expect some fading and color change during the first month as the skin heals and the true color emerges.
15. Follow-Up Appointment:
    • Attend a follow-up appointment, if scheduled, for any necessary touch-ups.
