Lash Line Enhancements

Colour, shade and definition are built up and designed during your appointment. With this approach, colour can be accurately blended with a person’s undertones. By proceeding cautiously and slowly, we can make adjustments in colour, tones and shading. We also believe in a “less is more” approach when proceeding. It is easier to add more later than be aggressive in the beginning.

The initial procedure will generally take approximately 1.5 hours.

Follow-up procedures usually do not take as much time as the initial procedure.

There may be slight swelling or redness. It takes a full four weeks to see the finished results.

There are two full weeks of restrictions after getting your permanent makeup done; excessive sweating, heavy sun exposure (tanning, laying on the beach, etc. - we recommend wearing sunglasses to protect your liner if the weather during summer months, swimming under water (you can swim above water, just do not get your eyes wet with any treated water, lake water or sea water) and wearing any makeup on your eyes, which could cause an infection.

We use excellent topical anesthetics developed especially for permanent makeup procedures. These creams and gels are applied to the desired area before and during the procedure to assure you of the most comfortable experience possible.

Some people describe the sensation as a scratching feeling or plucking sensation.

30 DAYS BEFORE PROCEDURE:

Avoid Botox and fillers around the eye area.

Avoid Glycolic acid, chemical peels, and laser treatments on the face

Avoid Retinols and anti-aging creams eg. Retin A

Avoid any lash enhancement serums eg. Latisse because it brings extra circulation to the lash line area which can cause the skin to be hypersensitive and bleed easily.

2 WEEKS BEFORE PROCEDURE:

Avoid extensive sun exposure and sunburn on the face

Avoid Motrin, Advil, Ibuprofen, Naproxen (Tylenol/Acetaminophen is ok to consume)

LASH LINE ENHANCEMENT POST CARE

Day 1-7:

Pat your eyeliner dry with a clean cotton round every hour (or when you see lymph fluid oozing) after the treatment until bedtime to soak up any lymph fluid that can come to the surface.

Avoid any water on the lash line until any dry skin peels off completely. Makeup wipes avoiding the eye area are encouraged to use at this time instead of washing the whole face.

Important Reminders:

DO NOT rub, pick, or scratch the treated area. Let any scabbing or dry skin naturally fall off.

If you should experience swelling, an ice pack may be applied using a thin protective barrier such as a paper towel. Icing is most effective in the first 24 hours following the procedure.

Do not apply makeup, mascara, makeup remover, face cleansers, creams, or washcloths on or near the tattooed area for 7 days or until the scabs fall off.

Do not wear contact lenses for 72 hours following the procedure. If possible, use glasses.

Sunglasses and hats are recommended to protect the eyes when outside

Avoid intense sweating exercise, salt water, chlorine, swimming, hot tubs, sauna, and steam room for 7 days or until the scabs fall off

Avoid long, hot steamy showers keeping your face out of the water while showering for 7 days or until the scabs fall off.

No facials, botox, harsh cleansers, physical or chemical exfoliants, direct sun exposure, and tanning for 4 weeks following the procedure

Avoid sleeping on your face for 7 days or until the scabs fall off.
