During your 4-week touch-up we review healed results, adjust shape or pigment, and refine strokes as needed. Procedure is brief, with topical numbing used. Expect mild redness and minimal downtime; most clients return to normal activities the same day or next.

Yes — a four-week touch-up is standard to perfect color retention and symmetry after initial healing. It addresses areas that healed lighter or uneven, ensuring optimal long-term results. Skipping it can lead to uneven pigment and the need for larger future corrections.

Most touch-up appointments last 30–60 minutes depending on the treated area and necessary adjustments. Consultation and numbing are included, so plan for about an hour to ensure proper evaluation and careful refinement for best outcomes.

Changes are subtle and intentional — we enhance existing pigment, correct minor inconsistencies, and refine shape. Major redesigns are not performed during the four-week touch-up; schedule a separate consultation if you want significant alterations.

Yes. Keep the area clean and dry, avoid swimming, heavy sweating, direct sun, and makeup for about a week. Apply recommended ointment, avoid picking scabs, and follow our instructions to ensure proper pigment settling and optimal healing.

If additional refinement is needed, schedule follow-ups typically after full healing, usually 8–12 weeks post initial treatment. For urgent concerns we may accommodate earlier checks; we’ll assess healing at your four-week visit and advise appropriate timing.
