Permanent
Cosmetics
Consultation
On the initial
visit, the permanent cosmetics professional
will discuss the areas to be treated and explain the choices of
pigment color and placement. The expected recovery time and appearance
after treatment will be reviewed.
Treatment
A
topical anesthetic cream is applied to the areas for about thirty
minutes prior to applying the pigment. A slight stinging may be
felt initially but soon lessens when additional anesthetic is applied.
After
Treatment
There
will be some redness, swelling, and bruising immediately after the
procedure, which will last for several days. An ointment can be
applied to the eyebrows and eyelids to minimize crusting. For the
lips, a lip balm is recommended to moisturize the treated area.
Common
Questions
Is
the procedure safe?
Permanent
cosmetics are applied using standard medical sterilization methods
in order to prevent infections. Sterile, single use instrument tips
are used with every client. The pigments are composed of sterile
iron oxide, which has an extensive record of safety.
How
long will the procedure take?
Eyebrows
and eyelids take about two hours each. Lip pigmentation requires
about three to four hours. The second application takes less time
than the initial procedure.
Permanent Cosmetics
involves the application of pigment into the superficial skin layer
of the eyebrows, eyelids, and lips. Recovery time is minimal and
the improvement in coloration results in a natural and more youthful
appearance. The initial treatment provides most of the desired coloration.
A second treatment is usually scheduled in one to two months to
blend the color evenly.
