Permanent Cosmetics or makeup is Cosmetic Tattooing specifically designed for the face. I use a digital tattoo pen with single use pre-sterilized needles. There are many different needle configurations that can be used for different effect. The needles penetrate the skin in the upper dermal layer and deposits particles of color. This procedure is considered permanent, but like all color, it is subject to fading over time. It will be a commitment to achieve the desired look for the services provided. Future color boost appointments might be necessary to maintain color saturation. This will vary from client to client because their lifestyles and bodies are different from one another. Fading can occur due to body chemistry, medical conditions and most common exposure to the sun or UV rays from tanning beds. So facial care is important when considering any of these procedures.

First Step / Consultation
Each client starts off with an initial appointment for a free consultation. This is the time where the details of the procedure chosen is explained in detail. This will include filling out a client history form and consent form. Any medical conditions that might need medical clearance by a Dr. will also be discussed at this time. We will also go over shape and design of the procedure chosen including color choice which will all be documented for the day of the procedure.
Procedures
Typically appointments are scheduled for 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours depending on the procedure to be performed. This includes going over the required forms, pre-procedure topical anesthetics which could take up to 30 minutes. Then the actual tattoo procedure. Taking before and after photographs and finally discussing aftercare and maintenance requirements.
The Follow Up Appointment
After the initial healing time has passed a follow up or color boost appointment may be required. This will include touching up any areas that might need additional coloring. Most procedures will need a second appointment since everyone has a different color retention after the healing process. Lips may require 2 additional appointments depending on how well the lips retain the color after healing.
