Nano Brows Healing Process

& 

Aftercare Instructions

Trust the Process

It’s completely normal to feel like your brows look too dark, bold, or defined in the first few days after your appointment

— Everyone feels this way!

Remember: Your brows will soften, fade, and settle beautifully as they heal.
The healing journey takes time, and each stage is part of achieving your final, natural result.

💛 Please note: The healing chart provided is a general guide — not everyone will experience or notice each stage in the same way.

Every skin type and healing process is unique, and variations are completely normal.

  • Day 1

    Kind of red, but I like them!

    Day 1 of the nano brow healing process — freshly done brows appear slightly red but defined, showing immediate post-treatment results by Alexandra Ink.

  • Day 2-5

    They look way too dark and thick!

    Days 2 to 5 of the nano brow healing process — brows appear darker and thicker than expected as pigment temporarily oxidizes, a normal stage shown by Alexandra Ink.

  • Day 5-10

    They are the wrong shape & flaking off.
    But I won’t pick.

    Days 5 to 10 of the nano brow healing process — brows begin to flake and peel as the skin heals, often looking uneven or patchy; a normal phase illustrated by Alexandra Ink.

  • Day 10-15

    Ummm.. My brows are gone!

    Days 10 to 15 of the nano brow healing process — brows appear faded or almost gone as the skin regenerates, a temporary stage before pigment resurfaces, shown by Alexandra Ink.

  • Day 15-30

    They’re back!
    Just a bit uneven and patchy.

    Days 15 to 30 of the nano brow healing process — brows begin to reappear as pigment settles and softens, showing a more natural and even look during healing by Alexandra Ink.

Aftercare Instructions

  • ★ Days 1–2: Gently Cleanse

    Every 2–3 hours for the first 48 hours:

    - Dab your brows gently with a clean cotton pad or cleansing pad and water to avoid infection.
    - Do not rub or apply pressure.

  • ★ Days 1–7: Moisturize Lightly

    Before bedtime each night:

    - Apply a tiny, rice-sized amount of the recommended ointment to each brow using a clean cotton swab.
    - Avoid over-applying — your skin needs to breathe to heal properly.

  • ★ Days 1–14: Keep Brows Clean & Dry

    - Do not apply soap, makeup, creams, or skincare products to the brow area.
    - Avoid sweating, swimming, and direct sun exposure.
    - Avoid picking or scratching any scabs, as this can affect pigment retention and healing.
    - Keep your brows clean and dry at all times.

Healing Expectations

Over the next few weeks, your brows will go through several stages:

  • The colour will appear darker at first, then lighten and fade as the skin heals.

  • Some flaking or patchiness is normal — this is part of the skin’s natural regeneration process.

  • As your brows fully heal, the pigment will gradually lighten and soften into its true tone and shape.

Please book your touch-up around 2 months after your initial service.

This perfecting session is imperative as it reinforces, and allows for any adjustments needed to achieve the finished look.
