Prior to your  permanent makeup treatment, think about the results you wish to achieve. As experts in the field - we will advise what is the best choice for you and help you make your decision. However, you are a big part of the decision making process and we have to make sure we both agree on the chosen technique and colour.

Be prepared for the colour intensity to be sharper and darker immediately after the procedure. This will subside and become softer as the skin heals. This process can take up to 28 days.

Permanent makeup enhancements normally require multiple applications.
To achieve the best results, you will need to return for a touch-up appointment 6-12 weeks after the initial application. Everyone’s skin is different and in some cases one procedure is enough, but most of the time multiple applications are required to achieve the desired result. Some clients might need extra appointments. Clients more likely to need extra appointments are:

•Those whose skin types are oily, porous, or sensitive.
•Those whose skin is thin or of a darker tone.
•Those who have previous permanent makeup.
•Those who have medical conditions compromising their healing.

The first additional touch-up is free, but if any additional touch-ups are needed, there is an additional fee.

Lip Pre-Treatment Advice:

• Since the lips have delicate skin, they may be swollen or have redness around them. We advise not to make social plans on the day of your enhancement.
• Make sure you moisturise your lips well every day for at least 7 days prior to your procedure. We advise drinking plenty of water to avoid lips drying out and to help with the healing process.
• We also recommend doing a gentle lip scrub 1 week and also 2 days prior to your procedure. You can use a homemade scrub (mix coconut oil and sugar). This will help to achieve better results during the procedure.
• If you have a history of cold sores (herpes simplex) and are scheduling a lip enhancement, we advise you to use anti-herpes medication (for example Zovirax ointment) that can be obtained from a chemist. Use the medication 5 days prior and 5 days after your enhancement 5 times a day to reduce the incidence of outbreak by 50%. Oral anti-herpes medication (available on prescription) will control the incidence of an outbreak more or less completely. Micropigmentation does not cause cold sores, however, if you carry the virus, it lays dormant in the nervous system and can be aroused by the treatment process.
• IPL laser hair removal around the mouth should be carried out no less than 2 weeks prior to your procedure.
• Dermal fillers in the lip should be performed no less than 4 weeks prior to your procedure.
