Caring for a new permanent makeup (PMU) is primarily about maintaining enhanced hygiene in the initial days. It is essential to use antibacterial soap, avoid contact with dirty objects, refrain from swimming in lakes and pools, avoid touching the tattooed area with dirty hands, and protect it from mechanical damage. Do not scratch or peel off scabs. After three days, start applying a thin layer of healing cream to the tattooed area, up to three times a day.
Procedure
Caring for permanent makeup is crucial for ensuring optimal results and preventing complications. Here are some key tips for caring for the treated area:
Immediately after the procedure, avoid using makeup. Refrain from applying any makeup to the treated area to prevent infections and irritation. Avoid touching or scratching the treated area to prevent infections and damage. For the first 3 days, gently clean the tattooed area with clean water and antibacterial soap. Use clean, unused supplies for cleaning and wiping to avoid transferring bacteria.
Start applying the cream (Tattoo Ointment Calcium Panthotencium, Bepanthen Plus) only on the third day after the tattoo, applying it once, up to twice a day, using small amounts and rubbing it thoroughly into the skin to avoid leaving a greasy film. Avoid using oils or creams that may affect the result of the permanent makeup.
For the first 10 days after the tattoo, do not immerse the area in water (swimming pool, bath, natural water bodies, sauna); shower only. Do not expose the area to sunlight (or tanning beds) for one month. If necessary, use hats or other forms of protection, such as high-factor sunscreens.
Avoid sports and physical activities for the first 5 days after the tattoo. Prevent mechanical damage to the new tattoo and do not peel off scabs. If using Tattoo Goo cosmetics, follow the attached instructions for use.
By following these instructions, you can ensure that your permanent makeup looks great and the healing process is as smooth as possible.
