_ I will follow the pre-care instructions given to me to the best of my ability. I understand that if I don't follow these guidelines carefully, the procedure may be compromised and will be responsible.
_ The aftercare instructions will be explained to me and a copy will be given to me to keep, which I will follow to the best of my ability.
_ I understand that all permanent cosmetic procedures have possible risks associated with them. Some of the possible risks of micropigmentation (while rare) include: allergic reaction, infection, misplaced pigment, poor color retention, and hyper-pigmentation.
_ I will tell all future skin-care professionals and/or medical personnel about my permanent makeup procedure where applicable, as it may have an effect on other procedures. (especially if scheduled for an MRI)
_ I understand that a certain amount of discomfort is associated with this procedure and that swelling, redness and bruising may occur.
_ I accept responsibility to communicate desired position, shape, and color during the pre-draw process.
_ I understand that excessive water, sweat, oils and other moisture on the treated area during the healing process will make pigment blur and/or affect color retention.
_ I understand that products containing Retin-A, Renova, alpha hydroxy, salicylic acid, and glycolic acids must NOT be used on the treated area as they will alter the color and cause irritation.
_ I understand that direct sun and tanning beds are not allowed during healing process. Once healing process is complete, I am to wear an SPF when outdoors!
_ I understand that pigment color may slightly change or fade over time due to circumstances beyond control and that I will need to maintain the color with future applications and a touch up session within 4-6 weeks.
_ I allow permission to take photos and/or videos of the work. These images may be posted online in association with the procedure for advertising purposes.
