BOOK APPOINTMENT

  • Yes. Cosmetic tattooing creates a long-lasting change in your appearance. Over time, fading may occur and touch-ups may be needed.

  • Some discomfort may occur during the procedure. Sensitivity varies from person to person.

  • As with any cosmetic procedure, there are potential risks including swelling, redness, bruising, and rare complications such as infection or allergic reaction.

  • Immediately after your procedure, the color may appear darker and more defined. As healing occurs (typically around 7 days), the color will soften.

  • No. Every result is unique based on your skin type, healing process, and aftercare.

  • No. Touch-ups and follow-up appointments are separate services.

  • Yes. Treatments like laser, surgery, or skin procedures may alter your cosmetic tattoo.

  • Hopefully—but in some cases, no. Every client is different, and results can vary based on individual skin, lifestyle, and desired outcome.

    Cosmetic tattooing is designed to enhance your natural features, not completely replace your everyday makeup routine. Pigment implanted in the skin will never have the same intensity or vibrancy as makeup applied on top of the skin.

    Many people are accustomed to a bolder makeup look that cannot be safely achieved with cosmetic tattooing alone. In permanent makeup, less is often more. Over-saturating the skin with pigment can lead to less predictable color retention and changes over time.

    Our goal is always to create soft, natural-looking results that age beautifully and complement your features for years to come.
