Contraindications to Permanent Makeup

If you have one or more of the below, you are not able to have permanent makeup

​

• Pregnant or Breastfeeding​ :  As a rule it is best to wait until you have had your baby and stopped breast feeding. All good things are worth waiting for.

• Under 18: By law no one under the age of 18 may have a cosmetic tattoo procedure. Even with parental consent

• Diabetic: Due to the healing process, diabetics are at a higher risk of infections

• ​Eczema, Psoriasis or any skin disorder on the facial area

• Autoimmune disorders: Due to the medication used to treat these disorders, pigment will not hold in the skin

• ​Blood Thinners or blood thinning disorders: This will cause excess bleeding and no pigment will retain in the skin

• Roacutane or any acne/skin treating medications and steroids: Must be off of the medication for a minimum of 6 months (No exceptions)

• ​Those with transmittable blood disorders i.e Hepatitis or HIV

• ​Epilepsy: Those who have had a seizure in the last 2 years

Already have Permanent Makeup?

 

Do you already have a form of permanent makeup in any way on the area you desire to have redone with us?

 

Due to the overwhelming amount of ladies who already have permanent makeup, I request that a consultation be booked before hand to analyze your previous work and to determine whether or not you can proceed with having the treatment done.

 

Eyebrows

If you already have your brows done it will depend on the shape and density of the colour of the previous brow tattoo. So if you have a previous brow tattoo, a consultation appointment is required to determine if you are a candidate for microblading . As not all previous brow tattoo's can have hair strokes added. In these cases, FULL POWDER (ombré) brow technique is recommended as this technique works best for covering over previous faded brow tattoo. The price will be quoted at the time of the consultation if you are a candidate.

​

Eyeliner

A clear photo of the current eyeliner will need to be sent to 066 2155 888 to determine if you are a suitable candidate.

​

Lips

​A clear photo of the current lips will need to be sent to 066 2155 888 to determine if you are a suitable candidate.

 

Most treatments will fall into a corrective category of permanent makeup and will require an additional fee. More touch-ups may be required to achieve the final result.

​

Am I a suitable candidate for Permanent Makeup Procedures?

Unfortunately not everyone can have permanent makeup, Here we will discuss what reasons and why someone may not be suitable for a permanent makeup procedure

​

Skin Types

Specific skin types are unfortunately not suitable for different permanent makeup styles.

​

• Microblading ​

 

Oily skin types and loose flaccid skin are not suitable candidates for hair-stroke Microblading. If you have these skin types you are best suited for a machine hair-stroke brow/Nano needle brow or a powder/ombre brow. 

Microblading on oily skin will not work as the strokes will blur together creating a solid powder look. 

You are not able to microblade on very loose, fragile or flacid skin as this will create too much damage to the skin causing tearing and an undesirable healed result.

 

• Eyeliner

​​​​​Mostly everyone can undergo an eyeliner treatment, only in certain cases when someone has extremely loose skin 

 

• ​Lips

​​Lips are a very complicated area to tattoo. If you suffer from cold sores or fever blisters, you will need to take an anti-viral prior to the treatments to prevent an outbreak after the treatment. If you have dark pigmented lips or a blue undertone you will need to supply a photo before scheduling an appointment as a lot of times these lip types are not able to have lip tattoos as they can became hyperpigmentated
