Frequently Asked Questions: 

When each of these procedures are done properly, it will look natural. I pride myself on giving you a very natural, perfectly groomed look. We will use colors to suit your individual needs. Colors and shape will be discussed and decided during a consultation, prior to the start of the procedure.

All procedures take 2-3 appointments, the first appointment when the treatment is carried out followed by a "perfecting" appointment 6-8 weeks later.

Usually, the semi-permanent treatments last 2-5 years but it is advised that there are regular touch-ups every 12-18 months, this is one appointment and costs less than half the price of the initial treatment.

Eyebrows & Lip blush Permanent makeup General Pre-Advice:

Since delicate skin or sensitive areas may be swollen or red, you are advised not to make social plans on the day of your enhancement.

If applicable you may wear your normal make-up to your enhancement appointment avoiding the procedure area directly. If you wish to bring a favorite shade of lipstick, please do so.

PLEASE NOTE FOR LIPS:

If you have ever had a cold sore, you must take an anti-viral medication 48 days before and 5 days after lip blush.

Prior to your micro-pigmentation (SMP) session, think about the look that you wish to achieve. As an expert in the field, I ensure that the correct colors and styles are chosen for you, however you are part of the decision-making process. Micro-pigmentation enhancements normally require multiple application sessions. To achieve the best results, you may be required to return for additional touch up procedures between 2 and 8 weeks after the initial application. Be prepared for the color intensity to be significantly sharper and darker immediately after the procedure. This will subside and become softer as the skin heals. This process can take up to 14 days.

-Prior to ANY of the services avoid caffeine the day of your procedure.

-Do not take aspirin or anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen 2 days prior to your enhancement.

-Do not discontinue any medication before consulting your doctor.

Keep alcohol intake to a minimum of 2 days prior to your enhancement.

-Do not use 1% Retin A skin care products close to the area to be treated for 3 weeks prior to your procedure.

-Do not use AHA skin care products close to the area to be treated for 4 weeks prior to your procedure.

-Avoid professional chemical peels close to the procedure site for 4 weeks prior to your procedure.

-Please be aware that the National Blood Service does not accept donations of blood for 4 months after micro-pigmentation.

-After one week of procedure, begin putting sunscreen directly on top of your brows, lips and/or scalp if the areas can't be covered.

It is best to get lip blushing done prior to lip injections. Lip filler can be scheduled 2 weeks post lip blushing. Otherwise, if you choose to get lip filler prior to blushing, you must wait until all bruising and swelling is down before scheduling lip blushing (I recommend 4 wks post filler).

It is preferable to get permanent eyebrows prior to Botox, so the eyebrows are guaranteed to be placed evenly on your face. If you choose to get Botox prior to PMU eyebrows, you must wait 3 weeks to ensure the final results of Botox are visible.
