Permanent Makeup Aftercare Guide

Healing, Retention & Results | The Haute Loft Experience

At The Haute Loft, permanent makeup is a process—not just an appointment.

Your results develop during healing, which makes aftercare essential for color retention, skin health, and final outcome.

What to Expect During Healing

Healing typically includes:

  • Slight redness or sensitivity

  • Light flaking or dryness

  • Gradual softening of pigment

This is normal and part of the process.

Keep the Area Clean & Dry

For the first few days:

  • Avoid excessive moisture

  • Gently cleanse as instructed

  • Do not soak the area

Clean, dry healing = better pigment retention.

Avoid Touching or Picking

Do not:

  • Pick, scratch, or peel

  • Force flaking skin off

This can cause uneven healing and pigment loss.

Avoid Sweat, Sun & Heat

During healing:

  • No workouts or sweating

  • Avoid sun exposure

  • No saunas or steam

These can interfere with pigment settling.

Skip Makeup on the Area

Avoid applying makeup directly over the treated area until fully healed.

This prevents:

  • Infection

  • Irritation

  • Disruption of healing

Follow Your Healing Timeline

Full healing can take:

  • 7–14 days (surface healing)

  • Up to 4–6 weeks (complete settling)

A touch-up may be needed to perfect your results.
