F.A.Q.

To ensure your comfort during the procedure, we use a topical cream anesthetics, which is applied both before & during the procedure. Pain is an individual thing – different bodies will react differently, but most find our application process very tolerable, some clients even fall asleep during the procedure. Some areas of your face can be more sensitive than others.

Permanent makeup will fade over time. Depending on your skin type, UV exposure and the color you choose, you may need a maintenance treatment every 1 to 4 years. A variety of factors affect fading that are beyond our control. For this reason, we cannot guarantee how long a treatment will last on you.

It depends on your skin, but usually takes 5-14 days.

Yes.

BROWS: Redness will subside within 24hrs. Next day your brows will look a little bit darker for about 1 week after the procedure.

EYES: Your eyes will be a bit puffier next day after the treatment but nothing severe. 

LIPS: Swelling will subside within 24h. Next day colour of your lips will look more intense until they will start pealing off. Usually it takes 4 days.  

The initial appointment for brows, lips and classic eyeliner can take up to 3h. In this time we consider proper sketch, numbing, procedure time and before/after pictures. Lash line enhancement can take up to 1.5h. 

Microblading is one of the permanent makeup techniques which is performed with a manual tool. 

Permanent makeup is a cosmetic tattoo where a coloured pigment is implanted with a needle into the basal layer of the epidermis (area where the epidermis meets the dermis).

Main difference is the ink depth in the skin.  The ink a body tattoo is implanted in a deeper layer of the skin than permanent makeup, that’s why body tattoo lasts a lifetime.

Permanent makeup can be done for esthetics (define shape, fix asymmetry, create a waterproof and long lasting natural look) and medical reasons (alopecia patients, vitiligo patients, nipple and areola reconstruction for breast cancer survivors, allergies to traditional cosmetics).

Please disclose any medical conditions when making a booking. We may require additional information or clearance from your Doctor.

No, our touch-up/maintenance services & pricing are reserved for existing clients ONLY.

 

If you have had your brows, eyes or lips done elsewhere, we do not go over them until they are almost completely faded. Full New Procedure prices apply. Please e-mail us a clear, daytime photo of your existing tattoo before booking.

If you have an existing eyebrow tattoo that is too dark or uneven, it is best to have them removed (with Laser) prior to an additional permanent makeup procedure. Attempts at correction without removal can be very disappointing. If your existing tattoo is on the eyes or lips we may be able to help. Please e-mail us a clear, daytime photo of your existing tattoo before booking.

Give yourself a 14 day window to heal after the procedure before attending an important event or going on a tropical vacation.

Limit caffeine & other stimulants day of your procedure.

Do not drink any alcohol for 24hrs before your appointment.

No Aspirin, Advil or Ibuprofen (unless medically necessary) for 24hrs prior. Tylenol is fine.

Limit blood thinning agents such as Fish Oil, Vit E & D, Ginko Biloba, Q10 etc for 2 weeks before treatment.

Just for EYES: Any lash-growth serums MUST be discontinued at least 6 months prior the procedure.

Just for LIPS: If you have ever had a COLDSORE outbreak, you MUST obtain anti-viral Valtrex / Zovirax pills from your Doctor.

Absolutely! Professional cosmetic tattooing can look more natural than pencil-cosmetics. Our unique application techniques and extensive range of pigment colours allow us to create results that enhance your features, not dominate them.

Permanent makeup is designed to give you a “daytime” look. Some women still use regular make-up to enhance their cosmetic tattoo. You can change your new look by applying conventional cosmetics on top as needed.

NOTE: All conventional cosmetics MUST be kept away from the tattoo area until it exfoliates & fully heals (1 to 2 weeks).
