PRE-PROCEDURE CARE
for Eyebrows, Eyeliner, Lip liner, and/or Full Lip color​
Please read all information carefully!
All permanent cosmetic procedures can be a multi-session process. You may require a touch up visit after 8 weeks’ time, if needed. (If appointments are available)
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 eye can be up to 30% lighter and lips maybe up to 50% lighter.
While these injected tones may initially simulate 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.
