please prep your skin for your appointment
Beautiful, long-lasting results start with properly prepared skin.
Nano brows are a precise, surface-level tattoo, and your skin condition directly affects how your brows heal and retain pigment.
For best results, your skin should be:
-
Calm (no irritation or sensitivity)
-
Intact (no peeling, flaking, or breakouts)
-
Hydrated (not dry or compromised)
1 week before your appointment
Avoid Active Skincare on the Brow Area:
-
Retinol / Retin-A / Tretinoin
-
Acne treatments (benzoyl peroxide)
-
Chemical exfoliants (AHA, BHA, glycolic, salicylic acids)
-
Strong anti-aging or resurfacing products
Avoid These Treatments:
-
Facials

Laser treatments
