• Pain: There can be pain even after the topical anesthetic has been used.
Anesthetics work better on some people than on others.
• Infection: Infection is very unusual but can happen, if at any point
the area treated becomes tender to the touch, red, oozy, etc you should
contact a healt professional immediately. The areas treated must be kept
clean, and only freshly cleaned hands should touch the areas. See “After
Care” sheet for instruction on care.
• Uneven Pigmentation: This can result from poor healing, infection,
bleeding, or many other causes. Your follow-up appointment will likely
correct any uneven appearance.
• Asymmetry: Every effort will be made to avoid asymmetry, but out faces
our not symmetrical so adjustments may be needed during the follow-up
session to correct any unevenness.
• Excessive Swelling or Bruising: Some people bruise or swell more than
others. Ice packs may help reduce the swelling. The swelling or bruising
typically disappears in 1-5 days. Some people don’t bruise or swell at all.
• Anesthetics: Topical anesthetics are used to numb the area to be
tattooed. Lidocaine, Prilocaine, Benzocaine, Tetracaine, and/or Epinephrine
cream and/or liquid are used. If you are allergic to any of these, please
inform me now.
• MRI: Because pigments used in Permanent Cosmetic procedures contain
inert oxides, a low level magnet may be required if you need to be scanned
by an MRI machine. You must inform your MRI Technician of any tattoos or
permanent cosmetics.
• Allergic Reaction: Although an allergy is unusual, there is always a
possibility of an unknown allergy to the pigments and materials used during
procedure.
The alternative to these possibilities is to use traditional cosmetic and
NOT undergo the Semi-Permanent Eyebrow, Lip Blushing, Eyeliner, Or any other
semi permanent makeup procedure.
