For most people, tattooed eyeliner, lips or areolas lasts about 3 years, but it can fade much faster than that, or stay visible for up to 5 years or longer. Most eyebrows tattoos will last between 8 and 18 months, however the pigment will eventually fade, so a 'yearly touch up' is recommended after 12 months. Every skin holds the pigment differently and many things including medications, skin type and health can determine the rate of fading.

Yes I do! You must consult with me prior to booking if you have any previous permanent makeup, any medical condition or are currently on any medication. I can not perform service on anyone pregnant or nursing. Also, we can talk about your future shape and color at the time of consultation. Call (313) 571-3323 to book your free consultation.

Avoid any chemical treatments, peels, abrasion, or ANY invasive treatment for at least 4-6 weeks prior to your visit. Discontinue Vitamin A (Retinol) products for 1 month prior to appointment. Avoid alcohol and caffeine 1 day before procedure to minimize any oozing, bleeding or swelling. Do not take coumadin, aspirin, ibuprofen, niacin, fish oil or vitamin E (any blood thinners) 3 days prior to procedure. Please consult with your physician before stopping any prescribed medical treatments. Avoid heavy sunlight, tanning beds or getting sunburn 3 days before the procedure.

Absorb: Day of:
After the procedure, gently blot the area with a clean tissue to absorb excess lymph fluid. Do this every 10 minutes until the oozing has stopped. Removing this fluid prevents hardening of the lymphatic fluids.
Wash: Day 1-7:
Wash daily to remove bacteria, build up of product and oils, and dead skin. Gently wash the area each morning and night with water and gentle soap or an unscented cleanser like Dial Soap, Cetaphil, or baby shampoo. With a very light touch, use your fingertips to gently cleanse the area. Rub the area in a smooth motion for 10 seconds and rinse with water ensuring that all soap is rinsed away. To dry, gently pat with a clean tissue. DO NOT use any cleansing products containing acids (glycolic, lactic, or AHA), or exfoliants.
Moisturize and hydrate: Days 1-7:
Apply a tiny, rice grain amount of Vaseline 2 times a day with a cotton swab and spread it across the treated area. Be sure not to over-apply, as this will suffocate your skin and delay healing. The product should be barely noticeable on the skin. NEVER put the product on a wet or damp tattoo.
Important Reminders:

• Use a fresh pillowcase while you sleep.
• Let any scabbing or dry skin naturally exfoliate away. Picking can cause scarring or loss of color.
• No facials, botox, chemical treatments or microdermabrasion for 4 weeks.
• Avoid hot, sweaty exercise for one week.
• Avoid direct sun exposure or tanning for 4 weeks after the procedure. Wear a hat when outdoors.
• Avoid long, hot showers for the first 10 days.
• Avoid face-down swimming, lakes, and hot tubs for the first 10 days,
• Avoid topical makeup and sunscreen on the area.
• DO NOT rub, pick, or scratch the treated area.

Important Instructions for Showering:

• Limit your showers to 5 minutes so that you do not create too much steam. Keep your face/procedure area out of the water while you wash your body, then, at the end of your shower, wash your hair.
• Your face should only be getting wet only at the end of the shower.
• Avoid excessive rinsing and hot water on the treated area.

There are Follow Up Touch up which is included in PMU procedure price and Yearly Touch Up which is 50% off the procedure price.
Follow Up Touch Up. During the first session of permanent makeup, the treated area(s) will become saturated with pigment. Human tissue consider pigment as alien body and rejecting it. In 4-6 weeks of healing, those areas will start to show less color, and a second appointment will be needed to fill them in.
Yearly Touch Up. The permanent makeup pigments will lighten with time and you can update your PMU with Yearly Touch Up help. There's a bright side here: in case you get tired of the current permanent makeup color, you have a chance to change slight color on a touch up procedure. Meaning, the permanent makeup is permanent as soon as you keep up with a maintenance.

The healing process differs from person to person and depends on several factors. It takes on average one to two weeks for your eyebrows to heal and another week or two for the pigment to set. Follow Up Touch-up appointment are recommended after 6 weeks and can take approximately 1 hour.

Permanent makeup is NOT recommended for any clients who are or have:

• Individuals under 18 years of age.
• Women who are pregnant or nursing.
• Epilepsy.
• Individuals with Pacemaker or major heart problems.
• Individuals with viral infections and/or diseases.
• Individuals with Lupus.
• Individuals who have undergone Organ Transplant.

The eyes and lips PMU are more sensitive then eyebrows because skin is much thinner in this areas. Overall, permanent makeup is a painless procedure if the right numbing cream is used. There might be some uncomfortable sounds involved, but you will be pleasantly surprised about how little you feel. Some clients of mine even fall asleep when getting permanent makeup done.
