I. Introduction: The Golden Key to Long-Lasting Ombre Brows

Ombre Brows, also known as Powder Brows, is a modern beauty technique that creates a soft, natural gradient effect, mimicking a perfectly filled-in makeup look. It is the top choice for those seeking defined yet sophisticated eyebrows.

However, to achieve perfect results and maintain long-lasting color retention, the Pre-Care and Post-Care process is crucial. At The Brow Clinic, we not only provide top-tier Ombre Brow services but also equip you with our exclusive care secrets.

Pre vs Post Care Ombre Brow: The Exclusive Secrets for Perfect Brows at The Brow Clinic

II. Pre-Care: Optimal Preparation for Pigment Retention

Pre-Care ensures the skin in the brow area is in its best condition, which helps the pigment settle evenly, heals true to color, and ensures a smoother procedure.

Timeframe	Action Required	Reason
30 Days Prior	Avoid Botox/Fillers in the forehead and eye area.	Ensures the skin position is stable and won't alter the brow shape after tattooing.
14 Days Prior	Stop using Retinoids, AHA/BHA, chemical exfoliants around the brow area. Avoid sun exposure/tanning.	Minimizes skin sensitivity and irritation, and prevents skin thinning.
48 Hours Prior	DO NOT take blood thinners like Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Vitamin E, Fish Oil (Consult your doctor first).	Reduces bleeding and swelling during the procedure, improving pigment retention.
24 Hours Prior	Avoid alcohol, stimulants, and caffeine. Avoid intense exercise that causes heavy sweating.	Stimulants and alcohol can thin the blood. Sweating can make the skin more sensitive.
Appointment Day	Arrive relaxed with clean skin.	Helps the technician work easily and ensures a comfortable experience for you.

Tip from The Brow Clinic: Please inform us about any medications or health conditions you may have. Health is a determining factor for the final result.

III. Post-Care: Protecting Your Investment

The healing process (typically 7-14 days) is a critical stage that determines the success of your Ombre Brows. Strictly follow the Post-Care instructions to ensure the color develops beautifully, naturally, and lasts long.

Stage	Action Required	Actions to Avoid
Day 1	Gently blot the brows with a damp cotton pad and apply a thin layer of the provided aftercare balm (The Brow Clinic will supply this). Repeat 3-4 times.	DO NOT get the brows directly wet.
Days 2 - 10	Wash your face gently (avoiding hot water and soap directly on the brows). Apply a thin layer of balm 1-2 times/day.	DO NOT SCRATCH, PICK, or peel the scabs. AVOID strenuous exercise, saunas, and swimming. Avoid direct sunlight.
After 10 Days	Wait for the scabs to flake off naturally and completely. The color may appear slightly patchy or light, which is NORMAL.	DO NOT apply makeup or skincare products containing acids/Retinoids directly on the brows until fully healed.
4-6 Weeks After	Return for the first touch-up session (if necessary).	Skipping the touch-up (if required) may compromise the longevity and perfection of your Ombre Brows.

Important Note: Mild flaking, itching, and an initially darker color are completely NORMAL. Do not worry; the color will soften and stabilize after the peeling process.
