For example, if you tan your skin after
having a scar camouflaged, your surrounding skin will be darker
in appearance than the treated area.
Because
wearing makeup is prohibited for 72 hours following your procedures
and since delicate skin or sensitive areas may swell slightly or
redden, some clients feel it best not to schedule any social plans
for a day or two following any procedure.
Wear
your normal makeup and bring your lip or brow pencils to the office
on the day of the procedure.
Any
tweezing or waxing should be done at least 48 hours prior to the
procedure, electrolysis no less than five days before. Do not resume
any method of hair removal for at least two weeks following your
procedure.
Any
eyelash or eyebrow tinting or eyelash curling should be done no
sooner than 48 hours before or two weeks after the procedure.
If you wear contact lenses and are receiving eyeliner, be sure to
bring your glasses to wear following your procedure. You may resume
wearing your contact lenses as soon as your eyes return to their
pre-tattooed condition.
If
you are receiving eyeliner, as a safety precaution in the event
of swelling or watery eyes, we recommend that you have someone available
to accompany you or drive you home.
If
you are receiving a lip procedure and have any history of cold sores,
fever blisters or herpes simplex, you will be required to contact
your physician to obtain the proper prescription medication to prevent
such outbreaks.
You
should refrain from the use of alcohol, aspirin, aspirin-containing
medications, Ibuprofen or Caumadin for 7 days before and 2 days
after any procedure. Also refrain from judgment-altering drugs for
at least 24 hours prior to any procedure. No medication should be
discontinued without first consulting your physician.
A patch-test
will be performed upon request.
