Book nano brows with Maya Chen

Aftercare

Healed results are a partnership: Maya does 50% in the chair, you do 50% at home. Here is the exact routine.

Day 1 — Blot + breathe

Gently blot brows with a damp cotton pad every few hours to prevent heavy scabbing. No water pressure on them yet. Sleep on your back if you can.

Days 2–3 — Wash + balm

Morning and night: cleanse with the foam from your kit using fingertips, pat dry, apply a rice-grain of balm per brow. Darker than final — normal.

Days 4–7 — Flake, don't pick

Light flaking starts. Do not pick, scratch or exfoliate — pulled flakes pull pigment. Keep workouts light and brows out of direct streams of water.

Days 8–14 — Settle

Colour looks like it vanished, then returns softer — the classic ghosting phase. Resume normal skincare around (not on) the brows. No pools, saunas or ocean yet.

Week 6–8 — Perfect

Healed result assessed at your perfection session, where we reinforce anything that faded. Then: SPF on the brows, forever.

The non-negotiables

  • No makeup, retinoids or acids on the brows for 14 days
  • No swimming, saunas, steam rooms or hot yoga for 14 days
  • No picking, peeling or scratching — ever during healing
  • SPF 30+ on healed brows daily to stop premature fading

Running low?

Healing balm, cleansing foam and full kits are in the shop — the same formulas from your appointment kit.
