Frequently Asked Questions..
Here are some of my most frequently asked questions.
If you would like more information about any of the treatments or would like to book a free consultation please get in touch.
IS IT PAINFUL?
Most people are naturally a little apprehensive and nervous before their first treatment and everyone has an individual pain threshold but every measure is taken to ensure the procedure is as pain free as possible and you will be pleased to hear the majority of clients report very little to no pain/discomfort at all and are pleasantly surprised by this.
DO I NEED A PATCH TEST?
Yes, all clients are required to have a patch at least 48hrs prior to the treatment. This is usually done during your initial consultation.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?
The times it takes varies depending on numerous factors however as a guide the initial procedure takes approx 2/2.5hrs and the top up procedure which is done 6-12 weeks later takes approx 1.5/2hrs. Despite these guide times you can rest assured that i will never rush any treatment and will take as long as needed to give you your desired results.
HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?
This varies from person to person and is influenced by many different factors such as lifestyle, skincare routine, skin type, age, sun exposure, medication etc. Due to this it is not possible to guarantee how long your results will last however a colour boost is recommended every 12-24 months to keep your brows/eyeliner or lips looking fresh.
DO I HAVE A SAY ON COLOURS & SHAPE?
Yes of course! You are in control every step of the way. As a professional i can give you advice on colours that will suit your skin tone and shape to suit your face etc but nothing is set in stone until you have agreed & are 100% happy.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER?
There is no downtime as such although immediately after the procedure the area treated may have minimal redness & or swelling this will subside within 24hrs, the colour will appear darker and more intense, this will last for several days. I will give you aftercare cream and instructions, its very important to follow these to obtain optimum healed results.
