How long should I wait to apply makeup after eyebrow tattooing?
With the rapid development of cosmetic plastic surgery technology nowadays, micro-plastic surgeries such as eyebrow tattooing and eyelash tattooing have become popular among many women. Especially for those with sparse or unattractive eyebrows, semi-permanent eyebrow tattooing can be a great choice to enhance the appearance and charm of the eyebrows. After the eyebrow tattooing surgery, it usually takes around 1-2 weeks for the scabs to fall off. Light makeup can be applied after the scabs fall off, but it is recommended not to wear makeup before the color touch-up.

1. If the wound is severe, you can take anti-inflammatory drugs or apply aloe vera gel externally to prevent infection, three times a day.
2. After eyebrow tattooing, you can apply cold compresses to the red and swollen area to speed up the swelling reduction. When applying cold compresses, place the ice cubes in a plastic bag wrapped in a sterilized towel and apply for 20-30 minutes. Avoid placing the ice bag or ice cubes directly on the wound to prevent infection.
3. Apply ice compresses to the tattooed area for 3-4 days after surgery to facilitate swelling reduction. You can wash your face after four days, but avoid excessive rubbing of the tattooed area. Avoid getting the tattooed area wet for a week after surgery.
4. Avoid any strenuous exercise for four days after eyebrow tattooing. After four days, you can gradually increase physical activity. After ten days, you can slightly increase the amount of exercise, but avoid intense physical contact for at least three weeks.
Although eyebrow tattooing can enhance the appearance, post-surgical care can be troublesome. Therefore, it is important for those seeking beauty to follow the care instructions carefully until complete recovery.
