After microblading, the eyebrow area must be kept dry and clean. It’s crucial to avoid any exposure to dust, bacteria, or impurities, which could lead to inflammation or infection.

If you have your eyebrows microbladed at Gangwhoo, our technicians will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions. Here are some important guidelines to follow when cleaning your brows:

• – Use a clean, soft towel to wash your face, being careful to avoid the eyebrow area. Do not let water come into contact with your brows during the initial healing phase.

• – Avoid using facial cleansers until the scabs have completely flaked off. If facial wash foam gets on the brows, it may cause stinging, pain, color fading, or even infection in more serious cases.

• – If you feel slight discomfort or soreness (which varies by individual), you may use pain relief medication — but only under a doctor’s instruction and at the correct dosage.

• – You may apply a cold compress to reduce swelling and ease discomfort, but take care not to let ice or water touch the brow area directly.

• – To clean your brows, gently dab the area with a cotton swab dipped in boiled and cooled water. Only use one or two swabs at a time and do not rub or scrub the skin.

• – Applying healing ointment is an essential step in the aftercare routine following eyebrow microblading. Depending on your skin type and individual condition, a technician will recommend the most suitable ointment. In most cases, products containing tetracycline are commonly advised.
• – How to Apply Ointment Properly:
• – Wash your hands thoroughly with hand soap or sanitizer. Dry your hands and make sure to use a clean cotton swab (it should be unused and kept in a sterile container).
• – Prepare a small bowl of warm boiled water, and gently dab it on the eyebrows using a cotton pad or swab. Wipe in the direction from the head of the brow to the tail.
• – Repeat this 3–4 times to help remove any dust or buildup on the surface.
• – Take a small amount of ointment on your finger or a clean cotton swab and apply a thin, even layer over the entire brow area.
• – Apply twice daily, once in the morning and once at night, until the brows have fully scabbed and flaked off.

• – Wash your hands thoroughly with hand soap or sanitizer. Dry your hands and prepare a clean cotton swab (make sure it is unused and stored properly in a clean container).
• – Pour some warm boiled water into a small bowl and gently dab the eyebrows using a cotton swab, wiping in the direction from the head to the tail of the brows.
• – Repeat 3–4 times to effectively remove any dust or residue on the brows.
• – Take a small amount of ointment onto your fingertip or a clean cotton swab and apply a thin, even layer across the entire brow area.
• – Apply the ointment twice daily — once in the morning and once in the evening — until the scabs have naturally flaked off.
