THINGS TO CONSIDER
In the industry we are often asked many questions associated with our services, and the questions listed below form a selection of the most frequently asked. If you have any questions which do not appear in this list, please contact me. I am always happy to answer any questions you have about your cosmetic tattoo needs.
​​
-
You must be 18 and over.
-
You cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding.
-
You must be well on the day of your procedure. Discuss with Tanya if you have any doubts.
-
You will need two treatments, 4-6 weeks apart.
-
You will not be able to go to the gym or swim immediately after the treatments.
-
It is recommended that you use sun block on the treated area.
-
For the best possible results and to avoid complications, always follow the aftercare advice given by Tanya.
-
How long will the makeup last?Although pigment molecules stay in the skin indefinitely, the colour remains visible for 1-2 years. This varies depending on your age, skin type, colour choice, and lifestyle. As with traditional tattooing, you are choosing to make a commitment to a semi permanent make up procedure. For optimum results, you should expect to attend a colour boost session every 9 to 18 months.
-
Is the procedure painful?Everyone is different but with advanced new equipment and techniques, discomfort is minimal.
-
Do I have a choice on placement and colour?Definitely! You are consulted every step of the way from the desired shape to colour selection.
-
How long will it take?You should allow a minimum of 2 hours for a new procedure.
-
What happens after the procedure?Immediately post procedure the area treated may appear swollen and the colour will appear darker and more intense. This will last for 3 to 5 days. Complete healing can take up to six weeks for the pigments to mature in the skin and the true colour to emerge.
