Eyeliner
Please remember that like any cosmetic procedure this is a process. Do not expect immediate results and please be patient. It will be a few weeks before you can fully appreciate the final results.
You may experience minor swelling and redness after the procedure. You will also experience oozing and skin peeling (scabbing) during the first week. The color will look darker and the shape might be sharp.
After about a week, the color and edges will soften. While healing treated area will gently exfoliate and you will lose some color (20%-50%). This is a normal process.
Usually, the exfoliation (peeling) process occurs about 4-5 days and will be complete at about 7-10 days. At that point, the contrast between the initial intense color and the new lighter color may be such that you may be disappointed. Do not worry. It is normal you will receive a second pigment application in a few weeks. At that time shape and color will be adjusted to your liking.
The final result of the first treatment will be visible after 3-4 weeks when pigment will stabilize in the skin.
Outer healing completes in about 7-10 days for the eyes.
Inner healing completes in 1-2 months.
1 – 7 days: darkest pigment.
7 – 14 days: pigment may lighten
15 – 30 days: the intensity of the color increases slightly
30 - 62 days: touch up of the pigment.
During natural skin regeneration, after the recovery period treated area might appear lighter than the original.
Often, even with proper care, customers develop bald spots or loose original pigment which makes the treated area look uneven. It is absolutely normal because your natural skin regeneration is not a process that a technician can control.
Most customers need a touch-up after about 4-12 weeks to assure that the desired effect was achieved. Micropigmentation is a process, two or three sessions may be required to achieve desired results. It is not uncommon to lose 20-50% of the color after the first session.
Please remember that with the proper prep and aftercare routine, you will have much better results.
Tip: after the healing is complete the use of sunscreen is recommended to prevent fading. Don’t use harsh products in the treated area.
Permanent Eyeliner After The ProcedureExpect light to moderate swelling and redness. Immediately after the procedure the eyelids will be slightly swollen. Because of swelling the eyeliner will appear to be much thicker and sometimes distorted. In 2-3 days the liner will be reduced in size.

LIPS
Proper care following your semi-permanent lip tattooing is necessary to achieve the best results.
You may experience the following symptoms for 4 days after lip tattoo treatment
Daily Care to follow for 7 days
Apply a healing balm regularly using a cotton bud. Wash your hands before applying the product and prevent cross-contamination of the product by not replacing the used bud into the container.
We recommend that you use a gentle facial cleanser to freshen your skin during the first week. Do not splash wash your face. Do however clean your enhancement twice daily with damp cotton pads.
Apply a layer of Vaseline to your semi-permanent lips when brushing your teeth to prevent it from becoming wet. Remove the Vaseline with damp cotton pads.
If your lip tattoo gets wet, gently pat the area dry using a clean tissue.
Some itching is normal. DO NOT PICK, PEEL OR RUB your lips as the colour may heal unevenly and you could risk infection, which in turn could lead to scarring.
Allow the colour to flake away by itself.
No make-up should be applied close to your lip area for 3 days.
Avoid eating spicy and salty foods and drink through a straw for 3 days.
No kissing for 5 days to prevent infection
Do not receive skincare beauty treatments for 5 days after the application of your lip tattoo.
Avoid For 2 Weeks
If you suffer from cold sores at present or anytime in the past use an anti-herpes medication 5 times daily for 1 week. If an outbreak does occur it will generally begin on day 3 of the healing process.
Remember, your selected colour will be stronger and more sharply defined for 4 – 5 days and will then shed away appearing as if little or no colour is present. Over the next 3 weeks, the colour will blossom into a considerably softer version of the original colour.
The approximate healing period is 14 days, however, healing can be prolonged if your immune system is compromised if you are generally stressed and by poor diet.
Keep in mind that in many cases, some unevenness of colour is to be expected. This is the purpose of the top-up visit allowing us to fine-tune your lip tattoo.
Long Term Care
Use a good sunscreen. Sun exposure will fade your micro-pigmentation enhancement. If you are planning a chemical peel, laser or IPL on your face or an MRI scan, please inform the technician of your micro-pigmentation enhancement.
Please inform the National Blood Service if you donate blood, as you may not be eligible to give blood for 4 months post-application.
