Consultations are informational only and do not include any makeup application or designing to show what your brows would look like if tattood. The reason we don't offer this is because Permanent Makeup does not look like traditional makeup, therefore one might get the wrong impression of what to expect.

SELF ADMINISTERED ALLERGY PATCH TEST 

By agreeing to administer your own test, you also agree to take on any responsibility for the outcome. You must clean the area thoroughly and keep the treated area clean until fully healed. Permetika does not take responsibility for improperly executed tests. 
​

STEP 1 CLEANSE:

Wash a small area of skin on the inside of the elbow or behind the ear. Rub the area briskly with an alcohol pad. Allow the area to air dry. 
 

STEP 2 APPLY PIGMENT: 

When the test area is dry, apply a TINY drop of pigment to the cleansed area using a sterile Q-tip.  Important:  Use the SAME color from the same lot/batch# as will be used during treatment.  
 
STEP 3: LIGHTLY PRICK SKIN:
Using a lancet or sterile needle, prick the skin through the drop of pigment (as if to remove a TINY splinter). Prick 10-20 times in a small circle about the size of a mustard seed - NOT THE SIZE OF A PENCIL ERASURE! Prick just long enough to deliver some color into the skin.
​
STEP 4 MONITOR:
Monitor the area for the next 72 hours. The skin may itch and or sting slightly upon application, however, it should not burn or feel intensely painful. Itching may continue. This is a normal part of the healing process, so don’t worry.
​
STEP 5 FOLLOW-UP:
Follow-up with your client after 3-5 days to inquire about the condition of the tested skin patch.  
 

Analyzing the Skin Patch Test Results

As previously stated, most clients will have a slight sensitivity, stinging, or itchy feeling to the test upon application, and itching may remain as the skin heals. This is normal and not a sign of an allergic reaction. However, you should not experience burning or severe irritation that they consider unbearable.
​
SIGNS TO WATCH FOR:  WELTING, OOZING, SWELLING, REDNESS AROUND TREATED AREA.
 

RESULTS: NO IRRITATION AT ALL

ACTION: GREEN LIGHT GO! This skin patch test did not present any signs of allergic reactions. It is ok to proceed with scheduling the cosmetic tattooing appointment.  (See warning below).
​

RESULTS:  MILD TO MODERATE IRRITATION

ACTION: PROCEED WITH EXTREME CAUTION: This skin patch test only demonstrated mild to moderate reactions., so exercise caution and consult your physician before proceeding with any cosmetic tattooing procedure. (See warning below).
 

RESULTS:  SEVERE

 Irritation, Burning, or Itching, Welting, Oozing Swelling, or Redness extending from patch tested area.
ACTION:  YOU ARE NOT A CANDIDATE FOR COSMETIC TATTOOING: This skin patch test demonstrated signs of allergic reactions. You must consult your physician for further treatment.

​

WARNING: A negative test is NOT a guarantee that a reaction will not appear at some point in the future. The reason for this is that your body can decide at ANY point in the future, to become allergic to almost anything. It depends on the state of your immune system.
