Question 1

Are permanent makeup procedures painful?

Accepted Answer

BROWS: There is very minimal pain because you will be numbed. Most of my clients fall asleep during the procedure.
EYELINER: You will be numbed throughout the whole process where you will not feel pain. You will feel pain as numbing wears off, so you can request for additional numbing.
LIPS: Minimal pain-Bareable Pain (Level 2-5). Based on the style types and coverage needed for the lip procedure, you will experience more pain if we need more coverage to correct dark areas etc. The technique utilized is no numbing and no bleeding. We can numb you at anytime upon request but most clients end up not needing numbing due to the gentle technique used.

Question 2

How long will my new cosmetic tattoo last?

Accepted Answer

BROWS: I use an American based brand of ink call Permablend, that can last up to 3 years. How long ink retains are all dependent on a person’s skin type and their lifestyle. People with oily skin normally fades out faster than those with dry skin. People who goes out in the sun and exposes their brows to UV rays, will find that their brows fade out quicker also.
EYELINER: Up to 3 + years
LIPS: up to 2 years, but a color refresher is recommended once a year.
