How to care for your result
Proper aftercare protects your investment and ensures the best healed result. Full written instructions are provided after every appointment.
Days 1–3

- Keep the area dry, no water, sweat, or steam for 10 days.
- Do not apply makeup to the treated area.
- Expect mild redness, tenderness, and initial darkening, this is normal.
Days 4–14
Healing phase
- Color will appear darker and may begin to flake or peel, do not pick.
- Apply the provided aftercare ointment as instructed, very thin layer only.
- Avoid sun exposure, swimming, saunas, and intense workouts.
- Do not apply any skincare products to the area (retinol, acids, etc.).
Weeks 3–6
True color appears
