Permanent Cosmetics Frequently Asked Questions

1) How do I prepare to have my eyebrows tattooed? If you have eyebrows that you want to get tattooed to look like real hairs you must leave the eyebrows you do have in the normal shape that you wear them for the tattooed hairs to be added. If you shave or pluck your eyebrows before coming in you can only get them tattooed solid, not looking like natural hairs.

2) Can I still get my lips tattooed if I have had cold sores? If you get cold sores please see your doctor for guidance and help in making this decision. He/she may want you to take a prescription medication before, during the procedure and during the healing period.

3) I’ve has a mastectomy. Can I get a nipple tattooed on to match my other one? Yes, but please consult with your Doctor about the amount of time after your mastectomy you need to wait for full healing before getting it done.

4) My nipples have lightened as I’ve aged. Can I get them tattooed darker? Yes you can! Our artist will work with you to discover the correct pigment shade.

5) This sounds painful, does it hurt really bad? Everyone has a different opinion of that. It depends too on which procedure you get. For example getting a beauty mark is small and fast and shouldn’t require the use of anesthesia for most people. Eyebrows take longer, many people are likely to be fine without it but many people would prefer to use it. Most people choose to use it for the lips and nipple pigmentation. For those that choose to use it we carry Dr Numb in our store for the discounted price of $52.00 per tube. You may purchase a tube for use if you like, just let our receptionist know when you sign up.
