Is permanent makeup permanent? |

While permanent makeup can fade as time passes and though you may have some initial fading from the skin’s natural exfoliation process, permanent makeup should be considered a permanent procedure. It is easy to add color, but difficult to take it away. As such, I suggest starting off conservatively until your desired look is achieved. |

Is the procedure painful? |

Topical anesthetics have been developed and are applied to the area prior to and during the procedure. While I do my best to ensure that you are comfortable throughout the procedure, you may experience some discomfort. As the procedure nears completion and the topical anesthetics wear of, you will be given ice packs which will sooth the area.
*It is important to apply ice packs 10 minutes on 10 minutes off during the first few hours after your procedure. |

What if I have plastic surgery? |

What if I need an MRI? |
|
By all means get the needed MRI. Temporary tingling, redness and swelling have been reported for those with eyeliner tattoos. Advise your physician that you have a cosmetic tattoo. He or she may wish to place a wet cotton round over your eyes during the MRI. |

Cosmetic surgery is desirable for many reasons as we age. It's best to complete your surgery before having your makeup applied. Laser surgery or resurfacing may result in color loss or darkening of your makeup depending on the laser and the colors in your skin. Advise your laser surgeon that you have permanent cosmetics so that he or she can perform a "spot test" before they proceed. If either cosmetic surgery or laser causes color loss, then it is a simple matter to have the color replaced. Your technician can explain more about complications of cosmetic tattoos. |
