WHAT IS PERMANENT MAKEUP?
Permanent makeup, also known as Intradermal Pigmentation, is a revolutionary
method of applying natural pigments into the dermal layer of skin. This
state-of-the-art technique is medically proven and specifically designed to be
completely safe. Permanent makeup is used for a variety of cosmetic
enhancements such as permanent eyebrows, eyeliner, and lip liner/color. Other
permanent makeup procedures include vitiligo, scar camouflage, areola
restoration, hairline enhancement, and more. At our MedSpa it is performed
using very fine, sterile, 100% disposable tips and supplies to deposit pigment
into the dermis.
WHAT IS MICROBLADING?
Microblading is an advanced manual method of cosmetic tattooing or
micro-pigmentation. At our MedSpa it is performed using a very fine, sterile,
100% disposable hand tool to deposit pigment into the dermis.
This method is ideal for anyone wanting to enhance the look of their eyebrows.
The results are natural-looking, hair-like strokes, regardless of the amount
of natural brow hair present.
Microblading is a multiple-step appointment process. For best results, new
clients are offered one Complimentary consultation with our specialist to
discuss color, shape, and aftercare. The first session will take approximately
2 hours. 6 weeks later a touch-up is a MUST to complete your final look. Some
may choose to have additional Touch-Ups in the future to achieve desired
results.
Please be prepared that eyebrow color intensity will be significantly darker
and sharper within the first few days of the procedure but fade significantly
(approximately 30-40%) over the healing period.
Results and longevity vary greatly from person to person. However, we
recommend a Touch-Up annually to retain the ideal shape and saturation of
pigment.
WHAT IS PERMANENT MAKEUP EYELINER?
Permanent Eyeliner frames the eyes and can make eyelashes appear thicker,
darker, and fuller. It eliminates the need to apply eyeliner with (makeup)
pencil or liquid eyeliner. It can enhance the shape or balance of the symmetry
of individual eyes, create the illusion of larger eyes, or affect how the
spacing of the eyes is perceived. Permanent Eyeliner can also enhance or
intensify eye color and make eyes appear brighter.
For those who like a more natural look, eyeliner is enhanced on the base of
the lashes making it appear as though you have full and thick lashes.
WHAT IS PERMANENT MAKEUP LIP?
Performing a lip procedure will enhance and/or correct the natural symmetry of
the mouth. It gives balance to the face because treatments can make the lips
look smaller, bigger, or more even. Lip color adds youthfulness and the right
color brings attention to the face and eyes.
WHAT IS PERMANENT MAKEUP PARAMEDICAL AREOLA?
For women who have undergone mastectomies, or other breast surgery, or who may
have irregular or fading areolas, this permanent paramedical breast
restoration procedures are nothing short of a medical miracle. Our permanent
areola repigmentation and nipple restoration techniques employ cosmetically
tattooed micro-pigmentation as a way to restore the natural beauty of your
breasts, so you can regain confidence in your femininity.
BEFORE & AFTERCARE
-
Absolutely No Sun, sweating, or tanning before the procedure or after the
procedure for 10 days. Do not have a tan/sunburn on your face before your
procedure. The tan will exfoliate taking color with it as it fades. If you
show up to your appointment with a sunburn, you will be required to
reschedule, and your deposit will be forfeited.
-
PERMANENT MAKEUP WILL NOT BE PERFORMED IF YOU ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING!!!!
-
Do not work out the day of the procedure as the body heat expands the pores.
It is recommended not to sweat (heavily) for the first 10 days after the
procedure. Sweat is salt and can prematurely fade the treated area.
-
IF YOU USE BOTOX, IT SHOULD BE PERFORMED EITHER 2 WEEKS BEFORE YOUR
SCHEDULED PROCEDURE OR 2 WEEKS AFTER YOUR PROCEDURE.
-
Avoid direct shower water on the treated area after the procedure. Apply the
Vaseline before showering to prevent soaps and shampoos from getting on the
treated area. Absolutely NOTHING on the treated area..no water, no makeup,
lotions, pencil….etc. for 10 days. Apply Vaseline before showering.
After 10 days, use a gentle cleanser to clean them. Avoid scrubbing the
treated area for 1 month.
-
Do NOT take Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E, and/or Ibuprofen unless medically
necessary, 48-72 hrs before your procedure. Tylenol is fine.
-
Avoid sleeping on your face during the 1st 10 days after the procedure.
-
You MUST be off Retin-A or Retinols for 7 days before your appointment and
avoid using them on or around the area for 30 days after. If used before 30
days, it can cause the pigments to fade prematurely. If you resume the
Retin-A or Retinols after 30 days, please know that the continued use will
fade your permanent makeup prematurely.
- You have to be off Accutane for 1 year. NO Exceptions!
-
If you have oily skin, your results WILL appear softer (eyebrows can look
solid) in appearance and may require additional procedures.
-
For dark Skin types please note that your permanent makeup will not appear
as bold as lighter skin types. (Indian, African American, Filipino, etc.)
-
Avoid alcohol or caffeine before the procedure, this will minimize any
oozing or swelling after the procedure.
-
Getting a procedure while on your menstrual cycle can make you
hyper-sensitive at the procedure site.
-
If there are any blemishes, pimples, active cold sores, or irritation of the
the skin of any kind, moles, or other skin imperfections in or around the
area of the procedure, We WILL NOT be able to do the procedure until the
blemish or area of concern is gone or the mole is removed and healed.
-
No swimming until the area is completely healed, salt water/chlorine can
cause the pigments to fade or change in color. It is recommended to apply
the Vaseline to the treated area/s before swimming even after healed to
prevent the chlorine water/salt water from penetrating the area.
-
Only touch the treated areas with squeaky clean hands. Apply Vaseline with a
Q-tip. This is a must. We do not want an infection.
-
DO NOT RUB, SCRATCH, OR PICK AT THE TREATED AREA. Let any scabbing or dry
skin naturally exfoliate off. Picking can cause scarring.
- Plan on scheduling your touch-up within the first 6 months.
