Medication and Permanent Makeup

-


Prior to any Permanent Makeup procedures, clients are asked to complete a Consent Form.
The form is used to document medical history, current and previous use of certain medications and to alert any possible interference for a quick recovery.

 When possible, the client should be in optimal health.  If you're feeling under the weather, just wait.  Remember, our body has a better chance of healing and fighting infections when we are well rested and healthy.

 If you were diagnosed with cancer and fear hair loss due to Chemotherapy,  be sure to check in with your doctor.  If you are currently under going Chemotherapy sessions, please wait.  If you have completed your Chemotherapy sessions, please consult your doctor and Permanent Makeup should be accessible to most clients.

 Medications that are particularly of interest to Permanent Makeup Artist are as follows:

  • Cumadin
  • Aspirin (baby or adult dose)
  • Any other blood thinning medications
  • Acutaine (if used in the last 12 months)
  • Excessive use of alcohol or tobacco
  • Latisse
Please consult with your doctor prior to stopping any medication.

 Permanent Makeup procedures may cause droplets of blood immediately after the procedure, so use a clean tissue and gently blot your brows.  Blood thinning medications may slow down healing.  Consult your doctor.

 Acutaine, used for severe acne, may increase sensitivity to the sun and thin the skin.  Therefore, it is recommended that the client wait minimum 12 months after use.  In addition, when on Acutaine, people should also wait minimum of 12 months prior to getting waxed (face and body).

Latisse is used to enhance, lash growth.  However, it may thin and/or hyper pigment your lash line.  I would recommend stopping use for minimum 2 months prior to the Permanent Makeup Eyeliner procedure.  Use of Latisse will not affect Brow or Lip procedures.

Permanent Makeup Camouflage

Q: Can I camouflage a scar, area of the skin that's missing pigment, or previous permanent makeup by using skin colored tattoo pigment? Clients with Vitiligo and scar tissues on their body/face request camouflage tattooing to match their natural skin color.  There's always Pros and Cons. Pro:  Tattooing skin colored pigment can conceal or make the area with loss of pigment less noticeable.  There are a lot of vendors with various colors, so you may find a color to match your skin tone.   Con : Your skin may darken or lighten depending on the time of the year, i.e. sun tan. It may be subtle, but your skin varies in darkness/lightness throughout the year.  However,  the Camouflage pigment will remain the same.  It will not tan with you.  Therefore, if the scar/loss of pigmented area is on your body that gets exposed to sun light,  this may not be a good solution for you. Also, all pigment fades over time.  Again, th...

Various Questions You Should Ask Your Permanent Makeup Artist Prior to Booking an Appt.

Basic Questions to Ask a Permanent Makeup Artist Prior to Scheduling an Appointment: Q1:   Are you OSHA Compliant? If the Artist is NOT Occupational Safety and Health Authorization (OSHA) compliant, take your business elsewhere.  This is basic requirement for every Permanent Makeup business in the state of California and most other states.   An annual inspection and testing is necessary to be granted a certificate to operate by the County Health Services. As of July 2012, all Permanent Makeup and Tattoo Artists need a permit issued by the Health Department to conduct business in CA.  The county will not issue a permit without an annual inspection.  Please note, this Permit is different than City Business Registration.  City Business Registration only notifies the City that you are conducting business at that location. A sink with hot/cold water is required in the workspace in Contra Costa County, CA.  Sinks in the bathroom do not c...
