Permanent Cosmetics Care

Pre-Care

For Eyebrows, Eyeliner, Lipliner, and / or Full Lip color

All permanent cosmetic procedures can be a multi-session process. You will require a follow-up visit no sooner than 4-6 weeks after the first treatment. Be prepared for the color intensity of your procedure to be significantly larger, sharper, brighter, or darker than what is expected for the final outcome. It will take time for this transition, based on how quickly the outer layer of your skin exfoliates. Brows and eyes can be up to 30% lighter and lips may be up to 50% lighter.

While these injected tones may initially stimulate the exact color and tone desired, it will not always remain a perfect match. Injected tones are constant, while your own skin tones will vary depending on exposure to cold, heat, sun and circulatory changes. For example, if you tan your skin and had a scar camouflaged, your surrounding skin will be darker in appearance than the treated area.
Since delicate skin or sensitive areas may swell slightly or redden, some clients feel it best not to make any social plans for a day or two, following any procedure.
