ANSWERS PG 1

2. Is there any discomfort when
applying permanent makeup?

Facial skin is very delicate and therefore some
discomfort may be experienced. A highly
effective topical anesthetic is used with excellent
results. I am careful not to start any procedure
until I am assured that you are comfortable.

3. How long does the permanent
makeup procedure take?

Depending on how many procedures are done at
one sitting, it could take approximately one to
two hours.

4. Is permanent makeup really
permanent?

No. We use the finest cosmetic colored
pigments and they will soften in color over a 3 to
5 year period. The colors are very blendable and
changeable should you wish to change the look.
I suggest you let me "freshen" the color
occasionally. Avoiding sun exposure and
applying sun screen of SPF 15 or greater to the
pigmented areas should prevent fading. You
should avoid anti-aging skin products and
chemical peels to the areas treated due to the
premature sloughing of the skin layers that
contain the pigment. If you care for your skin,
your permanent makeup should continue to look
beautiful for many years to come.

1. What is permanent makeup?

Permanent cosmetics is a process in which
sterile cosmetic pigment is placed under the
dermal layer of the skin.

5. Why should someone have permanent
makeup?

The answer is : "Why not?" Permanent makeup is
perfect for the busy person who has little time to apply
conventional makeup, those who like to wake-up with a
fresh natural look, the athlete who wants to look natural
and for those with oily skin whose makeup seems to
disappear after a short time. It is also ideal for persons
allergic to conventional make-up or anyone with limited
hand movement, poor eyesight, or contact lenses.
Permanent makeup can save hundreds of dollars a year
on cosmetic products!
