NO alcohol or caffeine for 24 hours before the treatment.
NO skincare product containing retinal, AHA, vitamins A, C and E agents for 1-2 weeks before treatment.
STOP taking fish oil tablets (if you do) the moment you schedule your eyebrow tattoo appointment, garlic and herbal teas to avoid blood thinning.
Do not tan two weeks prior or have a sunburned face.
Do not have any type of facial/peel 2 weeks prior to treatment.
Discontinue Vitamin A/Retinol products one month prior to treatment (these treatments thin the skin considerably).
Do not work out the day of the procedure (excessive oils in the skin can prevent the pigment from retaining).
Do not have anti wrinkle treatment 3 weeks prior (can affect symmetry).
Please purchase cold sore cream as the procedure can cause cold sore breakouts.
To Minimise Discomfort:
Try to get a good night's sleep before your treatment. This will help you relax and make the treatment more comfortable.
Drink lots of water- before and during the session – this allows the skin to accept the ink more easily, without thinning the blood.
On the day:
Have a good breakfast on the day of your treatment, this increases your stamina as treatments like Permanent Makeup burn a lot of calories.
Paracetamol reduces pain and helps reduce inflammation so if you're worried take two before or after your treatment.
Antihistamine helps to reduce swelling during the procedure.
Pigment stains – we use protective hair nets and cover you and all our equipment and couch in tissue and protective film but occasionally tiny droplets of pigment could splash on clothing and may stain, we recommend wearing dark tops where possible.
Due to the equipment we use and contaminated waste we don't allow children and pets in my treatment room
