Permanent makeup (a.k.a. Permanent Cosmetics) is the use
of facial tattoo art to inject different colors of cosmetic
ink into the skin, creating the permanent effect of facial makeup.
The cosmetic ink follows the natural lines of facial features, accommodating
aging and continuing to enhance beauty. This tattoo art, which mimics makeup,
enhances beauty without having to deal with daily applications of many
expensive products and lasts many years.
The masters of this art use tattoo machines instead of hand-held single needle
hand tools. This offers regulated needle depth and speed, and is much more
effective than the hand-held single needle.
I do only Permanent Eyebrows, permenant eye
liner, permenant lip liner, full lip color,
and areola restorations because I don't believe ink should be
injected into any other parts of the body. I also do
men's permanent eyebrows and eyeliner . I use German tattoo
machines, which I believe are the fastest and of the best quality in the world.
I use Premier Pigments. Premier Pigments is backed by scientific integrity and
provides long-term color stability to all recipients of cosmetic tattoo
procedures.
I was trained 300 hours in southern California, and I annually travel to Texas
for advanced training to perfect my art. I have been practicing this art for
over 12 years. You can come in anytime for a free consultation and
view my untouched photos of my work. I pride myself on top quality
work.

Does it hurt?
With my pain elimination procedures, the procedure will be pain free. I have
mastered the steps necessary to pre-deaden the skin for all permanent makeup
procedures. This ensures your anesthetics have reached their peak performance,
before any procedure is started. This is crucial to ensure your comfort, and to
enable the application of more color with less trauma to the skin.
How safe is this procedure?
Permanent cosmetic procedures are safe, if the technician has had proper
education and follows all of OSHA and CDC guidelines. Single use, sterile
needles and machine parts are used for each client and than properly disposed
of.
How will I look immediately following my procedure?
Your procedure area may be slightly swollen and irritated. This is called a
‘wheal and flare' reaction. The area may also be darker for a few days while it
is healing, because of the lymph and blood droplets that may have been brought
up to the surface during your application. While your procedure area is
healing, it must go through three phases before you will experience your final
results. The procedure area must heal, peel and fade. Final results may take
4-8 weeks to completely heal.
Can I have permanent makeup if I'm allergic to regular makeup?
If you are allergic to traditional facial makeup, Permanent Makeup
is ideal for you. The technician will patch test you in the desired area, wait
6-8 weeks, and proceed as necessary.
How do I care for my ‘NEW' permanent makeup?
After completion, you will receive a post-treatment care instructional sheet.
The overall success of your procedure is contingent upon you following these
instructions. A follow-up visit will be scheduled approximately 4-6 weeks from
your initial application. This is to tune and touch up any areas that aren't
completely to your satisfaction at no additional charge to you.
Is this procedure truly permanent?
Your permanent makeup procedure depends upon the technician,
the products used for the application, the correct setting for the proper angle
and depth of the cosmetic tattoo machine, how well you take care of the applied
area while healing, and weather or not sun block was used after the procedure
up to prier to healing. All these are factors towards longevity of results.
Can a person taking medication have a permanent makeup procedure?
Clients on medication should obtain a release from their physician prior to any
permanent cosmetic makeup procedure. It is required that the
release be from a physician's prescription note pad and sent to the technicians
office prior to the procedure.
What precautions, if any, are there prior to a procedure?
If there is any history of cold sores or fever blisters, you must take an
antiviral prior to the procedure. Your physician should prescribe Valtrex,
Famvir or Zovirax. Herpetic out-breaks usually occur on the 3rd day post
procedure, and taking anti-virals will reduce your chance of an outbreak. If
you experience a Herpetic out-break, you will lose the implanted pigment color
in the area of the out-break.
