PERMANENT MAKEUP PRE-CARE
Prior to your permanent cosmetic enhancement, think about the look that you wish to achieve. As experts in the field of color analysis and makeovers, we ensure that the correct colors and styles are chosen for you; however, you are part of the decision-making process.
Permanent cosmetic enhancements normally require multiple application sessions. To achieve the best results, you will be required to return for at least one control procedure four to six 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 fourteen days.
• Come to your appointment with freshly washed hair, considering there is no long showers or baths for 10 days after the procedure.
​
• 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.
​
• Please wear your normal make-up to your enhancement appointment.
​
• Do NOT take Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E, Fish Oil, and/or Ibuprofen unless medically necessary, 48-72 hours prior to your procedure.
​
• Do not discontinue any medication before consulting your doctor.​​
​
• For eyeliner appointments: make sure you are off any lash serums for at least 6 months before making your appointment. If you have any questions, please consult with us beforehand.​​​
