Your safety and your results will always come first. Here are 5 reasons we may need to postpone your appointment or recommend a different approach:
You’re pregnant or breastfeeding:
We don’t perform cosmetic tattoo services during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
You’ve taken Accutane within the last 6 months:
Your skin and healing process may be affected, so we require an appropriate waiting period.
You’ve had Botox within the last 3 weeks:
We want to allow time for your Botox to settle before your cosmetic tattoo appointment.
You’re taking blood thinners:
These medications can increase bleeding and affect pigment retention and healing. We’ll need to assess whether the service is appropriate for you.
You have old permanent makeup that needs removal:
If existing pigment is too dark, saturated, or discolored, removal or lightening may be necessary before we can create your desired result.
Sometimes the best thing we can do is say *not right now.* Your safety, skin, and long-term results matter more than getting you in the chair.
