PMU Treatment Considerations

Understanding What You Are Signing Up For

Unique

You are unique. Every client heals differently and every treatment will be slightly different

Swelling

Upon completion of the procedure there may be swelling and/or redness of the skin, which should subside within 1-30 days dependant on lifestyle habits and correct aftercare. In some cases, bruising can occur

Aftercare

You can resume normal activities immediately following the procedure. However, using cosmetic materials, prolonged exposure to water, excessive perspiration and exposure to the sun should be limited for up to two weeks following the infusion process

Post Appearance

Immediately after the procedure, the enhancement can be 30-50% darker than the desired result and can take between 4-10 days to lighten

True Colour

True colour should be visible after one month of each application, and that the colour may vary according to skin tone, skin type, age and skin condition

Skin Types

Some skin types accept colour more readily than others and that no guarantee of an exact effect or colour can be given

Removal

There are few effective methods for pigment removal

Complications

Complications are possible, particularly if post-procedure aftercare instructions are not followed correctly

Over Time

Pigment should stay visible in the skin for up to two years (and, in some cases, indefinitely). I also understand, lighter colours will fade quicker than darker colours and the pigment colour may change with time

Botox

Botox or collagen treatments may affect the position of the eyebrows

Fading

Permanent make-up fades over time and annual retouches are required in order to refresh the colour at any given time. The speed at which semi-permanent make-up fades depends on numerous factors*

Anaesthetic

Sensitivity reaction to numbing / anaesthetic can happen

Allergies

A sensitivity test for pigment does not guarantee that you will not have an allergic response. A reaction to pigments is rare but can happen

Permanence

Non-toxic pigments are used during the procedure and cosmetic enhancement, treatment may fade over the course of two years. Even though the colour might fade, the pigment will stay in the skin indefinitely and may leave a light residue of colour

Needles

Claire meets the highest hygiene standards, and sterile disposable needles are used for each individual client, procedure and visit

No Guarantees

Each procedure is a process requiring multiple applications of pigments to achieve desirable results, and that 100% success cannot be guaranteed

Pigment spread

Pigment can migrate under the skin although this is a rare occurrence

Comfort

Cosmetic enhancement is an invasive procedure and that the infusion process can therefore be uncomfortable

*Factors impacting PMU longevity include: medication, skin characteristics (i.e. dry/oil/sun damaged), natural skin undertones, a compromised and/or weakened immune system, poor diet, excessive sun exposure (including sun beds), chemical peels and hormone changes.
