Frequently Asked Questions - PMU

One guest is allowed in the area with you. Anyone else would have to wait in the waiting area.

I always say to consider it permanent. With any of these services there will be some fading over time due to varying factors; sun exposure, daily skincare, etc. An initial touch-up is highly recommended for the longevity of your work and finalizing of size, shape and color at 6-8 weeks (price included with initial service).

You may not need another one from anywhere from 3-5 years or you might want one yearly, also known as a “color boost” for more vibrancy.
However, fading is not guaranteed to happen.

While I do use numbing before and during the cosmetics procedures, pain is relative. Most of my clients feel little to no pain while others compare it to a scratching sensation. 

I map out the procedure area according to your features and then show you. We must both agree on the shape and color together before I proceed with making it permanent.

No. It is not recommended. Lidocaine, Tetricane, and Epinephrine are used during the procedure and go straight to the baby when it is in your system.
Infection after the procedure is always possible when not being very careful afterwards (remember no touching) and would also be given to the baby.

You cannot be currently undergoing chemotherapy and get this procedure. I would have to have a doctor's note emailed to me to even consider it.

You can still get permanent cosmetics done. Your healing period will be a little longer.

These procedures are not recommended if you are taking them for a serious medical condition that thins the blood considerably. Thin blood will push pigment out of the skin, effectively rendering the procedure pointless and cause what does stay to be patchy.
If your doctor approves stopping a medication temporarily, I would need a note emailed to me from their office.

You may return to normal daily activities with the exception of:
No submerging in unclean water such as pools, lakes, ocean, hot tub, bathtubs, etc. for 30 days.

No! This is not good for ANY tattooing.

Everyone heals differently. Not everyone says that they scab. If this happens to you, it is normal for you.
