HEALED RESULTS
Prior to your micropigmentation procedure, think about the results you wish to achieve. As an expert in the field - I will advise what is the best choice for you and help you make your decision. However, you are a big part of the decision making process and we have to make sure we both agree on the chosen technique and color. Brow micropigmentation enhancements normally require multiple applications. To achieve the best results, you will need to return for a touch-up appointment 6-12 weeks after the initial application. Everyone's skin is different and in some cases one procedure is enough, but most of the time multiple applications are required to achieve the desired result. Some clients might need extra appointments.
Since the lips have delicate skin, they may be swollen or have redness around them. I advise not to make social plans on the day of your enhancement. Lysine can be taken 1 week prior to you appointment to prevent swelling. Do not take aspirin or anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen in the 2 days prior to your procedure. Do not discontinue any medication before consulting with your doctor. Do not consume alcohol in the 2 days prior to your treatment. Do not use 1% Retin A skincare products close to the area to be treated for 6 weeks prior your procedure. Do not use AHA skincare products close to the area to be treated for 4 weeks prior to vour procedure. Avoid professional chemical peels close to the procedure site for 4 weeks prior to your procedure. Moisturize your lips well every day for at least 7 days prior to your procedure. I advise drinking plenty of water to avoid lips drying out and to help with the healing process.

Permanent makeup does not cause cold sores, however, if you carry the virus, it lays dormant in the nervous svstem and can be aroused by the treatment process.

If you are prescribed preventative medication, please time your visit to fall in the MIDDLE of the RX cycle.

Prior to your procedure, think about the results you wish to achieve. I will advise what is the best choice for you and help you make your decision based on your anatomy and personal style.

Those whose skin types are oily, porous, or sensitive Those whose skin is thin or of a darker tone Those who have previous permanent makeup that is not well done Those who have medical conditions compromising their healing Those who have scarring in the brow area Those who do not follow after care Be prepared for the colour intensity to be sharper and darker immediately after the procedure. This will subside and become softer as the skin heals. This process can take up to 7 days. A great heal is 20% me and 80% YOU! Following after care steps is critical to the outcome of your permanent makeup.
