* MEDICATIONS:
  • Never discontinue a medication
    your physician has
    recommended for you without
    consulting him or her.
  • Herbs can also increase
    bleeding and  swelling. Valerian,
    Kava, Hops, Melatonin, St John’s
    Wort, Passion Flower,
    Chamomile, Willow Bark.  Some
    herbs may increase or decrease
    the actions of other herbs or
    prescription medications
  • Patients on prescription
    medications should check with
    their doctor regarding
    interactions, especially those on
    heart meds or blood thinners.
  • Antihistamines such as Benedryl
    can be taken before the
    procedure as it may reduce
    swelling and help you relax.
THE DAY OF YOUR APPOINTMENT...
ATTIRE:  
  • Here's a good rule of thumb... Pigment
    generally washes out of most clothes, but
    never  your favorite ones! So wear
    something old and be comfortable.

  • Bring socks and a sweater if you get cold
    easily.  There are blankets in case you
    need them...

EYELINER
  • Do not wear contact lens during the
    procedure or for 24 hrs after.
  • Bring sunglasses to wear home. Eyes
    may be light sensitive.
  • Do not dye or perm lashes for 2 days prior.
  • Do not use eyelash curler the day of the
    procedure.
  • If you have had any type of eye surgery,
    consult with the physician about how long
    you should wait before having a
    permanent eyeliner procedure. Most
    physicians are giving a 2 month ok after
    cataract, lasik, and blepharoplasty.

EYEBROWS
  • Do not tweeze, wax, or dye brows for 2
    days prior.
  • Electrolysis should not be done for a week
    prior.

LIPS
  • If you get cold sores you will need to ask
    your doctor for an antiviral prescription
    such as Zovirax or Valtrex. Physicians
    usually instruct usage to begin 3-4 prior to
    procedure and continue for a 7-10 day
    course.

  • If you have had any type of lip surgery,
    consult with the physician about how long
    you should wait before having a
    permanent makeup procedure on the lips.
    Most physicians are giving a 3 week ok
    after lip filler injections like collagen or
    Restylane. Permanent makeup artists
    have noticed poor color retention in lips
    that have received collagen injections
    within the previous 6 months, longer for
    restylane. There has even been a little
    pigment migration along lip edges with
    Restylane. It may be best not to have lip
    filler injections and permanent lip color
    within the same year. If the lip surgery
    involves an incision (like a lip implant), the
    incision needs to mature about 6 months
    before tattooing on top of it. If you have
    tongue piercings or wear dentures, this
    may increase risk of getting bacterial
    and/or fungal infection from the mouth to
    the lips. Silvadene ointment used on lips
    helps fight both bacterial and fungal
    problems.
