I hereby authorize said artist to perform upon myself a body tattoo. If any unforeseen condition arises in the course of the procedure(s) I further request and authorize her to use her full judgment and do whatever he/ she deems advisable and necessary in the circumstances.

That I have read all of the information in the FAQ/AFTERCARE/POLICIES sections of Studio Artisphere's website and followed all of the pre-procedure instructions prior to the appointment.

That although allergic reactions and pigment migration are rare, they may happen to me and I accept all responsibility if these occur.

I have eaten in the past 3 hours.

That the highest standards of hygiene are met, and that single-use sterile disposable needles, hand tools, and protection barriers are used and disposed of for each individual client, procedure and visit.

That tattoos can only be removed with surgical, saline or laser procedures, and that any effective removal may leave permanent scarring or disfigurement.

That this tattoo treatment is an invasive procedure and that there is potential for discomfort during the procedure and during the healing process and that upon completion of the procedure, there may be swelling and redness of the skin, which will subside within 1-4 days dependent on lifestyle.

I understand that the finished tattoo may vary somewhat in appearance, colour and/or from the paper or other drawing or photographic image which the tattoo design is based.

That using cosmetics, prolonged exposure to water, excessive perspiration and exposure to the sun may affect the healed result and should be limited for up to two weeks following the infusion process.

I agree that any touch up work, due to my negligence, will be done at my own expense.
