For best results, please adhere to the after-care procedures. Pigmentation is still an invasive procedure; your skin needs a recreational phase after each session. 

NeoTempo Aesthetics sells its own specially developed after-care products, which we recommend.

(alternate products are included in the list below)

 

 

For the 10 days after your procedure, please adhere to the following instructions:

​

• avoid the use of oil-based products

• prevent the use of make-up or make-up remover on the tattooed area

• avoid soap and cleansers on the treated area for a minimum of 5 to 7 days, as they can be detrimental to the bonding process that must take place for the pigment to stabilise in the dermis

• avoid hot water for 5 to 7 days on the treated area (btw. a cold shower is quite healthy)

• avoid exposure to the sun (or solarium), and wear a hat or cap to protect your face from intense solarisation

• avoid picking once the skin starts flaking on the treated area

• do not put on eyelash-extensions or artificial eyelashes for a minimum of 3 weeks in case you had after an eyeliner session

• do not undergo a lip filling procedure 5 weeks prior or earlier than 5 weeks after the tattoo session  – in case you plan one let us know, so we can figure out the best appointment schedule – be aware that lip filling might affect the lipline or contour

• avoid contact with salt water or chlorinated water when swimming and exercising

• no waxing, threading or tweezing of treated areas before 21 days after the session.

​

To relieve itching sensation and help the healing process:

​

• apply healing cream (provided by us or available at your chemist); apply sparingly three to five times a day with a cotton pad to keep the area moisturised

• do not peel off scaling skin manually; allow the colour to flake away by itself

• do not use Vaseline or PawPaw-Ointment since this will cover/seal the area, and the skin is not able to “breathe.”

• in case of swelling or redness, you can apply cold compresses or ice packs
