What you must avoid and for how long:

48 HOURS BEFORE

 

MEDICATIONS

It is advisable to avoid any blood thinners or medications /supplements that thin the blood for a minimum of 48 hours prior to  appointment. These include:

Vitamin E

Aspirin

Niacin

fish oil supplements

Ibuprofen.

ALCOHOL

CAFFEINE

Caffeinated beverages or supplements including energy drinks, many teas and even kombucha that can also have caffeine

1 WEEK BEFORE

SUN EXPOSURE

MICRODERMABRASION

DERMAPLANNING

LASER TREATMENTS

*CHEMICAL PEELS - Since peels vary one week may not be long enough especially with more intense peels so we recommend you inquire with the provider of peel to know exactly when your skin will be fully healed and proceed accordingly.  We will not be held responsible for work that disappears because skin was mid peel process without our knowledge.

1 MONTH BEFORE

SUN EXPOSURE

Please avoid SUN and TANNING BED exposure for a minimum of one week and preferably 30 days BEFORE and AFTER your procedure.

If you arrive for your appointment with a freshly tanned or a sunburned skin, we will be forced to reschedule and will forfeit your deposit. As your skin regenerates from a sunburn, it will take the pigment with it. Sun exposure can also cause excessive bleeding and sensitivity leading to poorly healed results.

2 MONTHS BEFORE

BOTOX, DYSPORT, JEUVEAU

No Botox, Xeomin, Dysport, or other botulinum toxin type A injections in the area of cosmetic tattoo for 2 months prior to receiving a cosmetic tattoo.

We recommend waiting until after your complimentary touch-up appointment heals to get Botox in the area.

Educated providers of Botox and dermal fillers will take your new cosmetic tattoo into consideration when choosing where to inject.

DERMAL FILLERS , INJECTABLE FILLERS

No filler injections in the area of cosmetic tattoo for 2 months prior to cosmetic tattoo procedure. 

 

example: if you are receiving lip fillers we would not require you wait two months to get microblading but we would want you to wait two months before getting a LIP BLUSH TATTOO.

 

This is because fillers can settle, shift or change and this can affect the end result of a cosmetic tattoo so we recommend waiting two months after fillers to receive a cosmetic tattoo in the area and afterwards we recommend waiting until after your complimentary touch-up appointment heals to get fillers/injections.

Educated providers of Botox and dermal fillers will take your new cosmetic tattoo into consideration when choosing where to inject.

 

6 MONTHS BEFORE

DOXYCYCLINE

It is recommended to wait up to 6 months after using Doxycycline before receiving a cosmetic tattoo.
