Avoid touching the eyebrows and applying cosmetic soaps in the area. Just wash them with water.
Likewise, avoid applying make-up removers or other types of cleaners that are irritating during the first week. So preferably use neutral soaps.
Likewise, prevent sweat from falling on the eyebrows during the first four days. So, it is better not to carry out any physical activity.
One of the effects of this treatment is the appearance of a posterior scab, which must fall off by itself and never be intentionally removed.
Apply the creams or ointments recommended by the specialist for best results.
