Before Care
If you have had any type of eye surgery, including cataract, Lasik, and/or blepharoplasty, you must consult your physician and get clearance. Most physicians require 3-9 months before you can have your eyeliner done. This is because there is slight pressure and stretching on and around the eye during the procedure.
Please do not wear mascara or any eye makeup to an eyeliner procedure.
All eyelash extensions must be removed prior to the procedure.
Discontinue Latisse and any other lash growth serum for a minimum of 4 weeks prior.
Any eyelash or eyebrow tinting or eyelash curling should be done no sooner than 48 hours before and two weeks after the procedure.
If you wear contacts, please do not wear them to your appointment and refrain from wearing them for a minimum of 24 hours after the procedure is finished.
Do not take Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E or Advil/Ibuprofen, Fish Oil 48 hours before the procedure.
DO NOT drink alcohol or caffeine 48 hours prior to appointment.
Discontinue Retin-A, Chemical and Laser Peels, Microdermabrasions, Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA), and any chemical exfoliant or "brightening" skincare at least 6 weeks prior (Once your eyeliner has fully healed, you must cover your tattoo area with VASELINE prior to the use of these products to prevent premature fading).
Please note, you will be more sensitive during your menstrual cycle.
After Care
Dry healing is recommended. If the area is too dry or itchy, apply a small amount of balm provided with a cotton swab.
Eyes will be swollen and perhaps a bit ‘crusty’ upon waking. The swelling will reduce after being in an upright position and from blinking and increased circulation to the area. Ice packs protected with a cloth may be applied as necessary to reduce swelling. Sleeping slightly elevated helps alleviate swelling sometimes seen in the morning after facial procedures. Avoid heavy lifting, physical exertion, and crying.
Some itching is normal. DO NOT PICK, PEEL, OR SCRATCH the treated area or your color may heal unevenly, and you risk scarring and infection.
No makeup for 7 days. Mascara should be brand new. No lash curlers for 10 days.
Do not expose your healing skin to direct shower spray, skin creams, ointments, or lotions other than what you have been instructed to use for 7 days following your procedure.
Do not expose your healing skin to direct sun, tanning beds, hot tubs (tub bath if body area treated), saunas, salt water, chlorinated pools, or extremely hot water for 2 weeks following your procedure.
How many treatments are required?
The majority of our clients require 2 treatments to have their lash line perfected. Touch-up appointments can be made 4 weeks after your first visit.
Am I a good candidate for Lash Line Enhancement?
You will love the Lash Line Enhancement if you like a natural look. This might not feel enough to someone who likes to wear a lot of eye liner. The lash line is subtle and beautiful, it enhances the color of your eyes, defines them, and makes the eye lashes look fuller.
