Mistakes to Avoid Before Your PMU Appointment 🚫
Want the best healed results? Make sure to avoid these common mistakes before your permanent makeup session:
• Drinking alcohol the night before
• Taking blood thinners (aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, etc.) 48 hours prior
• Consuming caffeine the day of your appointment
• Getting Botox or fillers within 2 weeks of your procedure
• Excess sun exposure or sunburn on the treatment area
• Using retinol, AHA/BHA, or exfoliants near the area 7 days before
• Coming in with irritated or broken skin
• Scheduling your appointment right before a big event (healing takes time!)
Your skin condition directly affects your healed results. Proper preparation helps ensure better pigment retention, smoother healing, and overall better results.
