Cosmetic Tattoo

Our cosmetic tattooists can offer you a variety of styles and colours to suit your individual needs.

When attending a tattoo appointment, please be mindful of accidental pigment marks/spills. We advise you do not wear anything of value as we cannot take responsibility if clothing is permanently tarnished.

DAY 1: Use a damp cotton pad to wipe off any exudate fluid that builds up on the brows to avoid scabbing.

DAY 2-7: You may use a damp cotton pad occasionally to clean your brows, but other than this you should avoid getting them wet. No swimming, excessive sweating or putting your brows directly in the shower. Depending on your skin type, you may be advised to apply a tiny drop of aftercare gel in the morning and at night using a cotton tip.

No makeup or skincare on your brows for 10 days or until the flaking stage has finished. You can use products all around, just not on top of your brows.
No tanning products on your face for at least 2 weeks. The tan pigment can mix with your tattoo pigment and turn purple or green!
No 'hair growth serums' on your brows for 4 weeks either side of your tattoo appointment.
No picking or scratching at the treated area whilst it is healing.

Your brows will look darker in the days following the tattoo appointment - like a fresh dye.

The week after your tattoo appointment, your brows may flake and fade. This is normal. Trust the process!

By week 3-4, the tattoo pigment should start to reveal itself again, but they will be softer (around 60-70% of what they were when they were first done).

Around 6 weeks you can book a touch up appointment to amend any pigment irregularities.

DAY 1-2: Try to drink through a straw where possible (to avoid your lips getting wet). Also avoid hot foods or spicy foods as they may irritate your lips.

DAY 3-7: Your lips may appear 'chapped' while the top layer of the tattoo sheds, revealing a soft blush tone underneath.

Apply your aftercare gel as much as possible for as long as you like (ideally up to 10 days).

No makeup or active products on your lips for 10 days. You can use products all around, just not on the tattooed area. Only aftercare balm during this time!
No tanning products on your face for at least 2 weeks. The tan pigment can mix with your tattoo pigment and turn purple or green!
No picking or scratching at the treated area whilst it is healing.

Speak with your pharmacist about taking anti-histamines for any initial swelling (will resolve on its own within 24 hours regardless) and anti-virals if you suffer from cold sores.

FAQS

Who is eligible for Cosmetic Tattoo?

You are eligible for Cosmetic Tattoo if you are over 18 years of age, are not pregnant or breastfeeding, are in good health and not currently taking any acne medication, anti-inflammatory or blood-thinning medication (including fish oil supplements). If you have any questions regarding this, please contact the clinic.

What if I have had anti-wrinkle or filler?

We need your anti-wrinkle or filler to have settled before we can consider tattooing in the same area. Please wait 2 weeks for anti-wrinkle and 4 weeks for filler before booking a tattoo. You will also need to wait until your tattoo is healed (minimum 4 weeks) before having anti-wrinkle or filler in the same area.

Is Cosmetic Tattoo painful?

Brow Tattoo is tolerated really well if you have applied an over-the-counter numbing ointment before attending your appointment (at least 20minutes).

For Lip and Lash Enhancement Tattoo, we recommend purchasing a stronger numbing ointment from your local compounding pharmacy (you will need to order this in advance) and apply on arrival at the clinic. You can also take anti-histamines to reduce swelling, and anti-virals if you are someone who suffers from cold sores.

Is there any downtime?

You can be 'out and about' immediately following a brow tattoo, however the brows will need to be kept as dry as possible for 7-10 days following your appointment. This includes no swimming, no saunas, no excessive sweating, and no putting your face directly in the shower. You cannot use any products on your brows other than tattoo aftercare gel during this healing period.

Lip Tattoo and Lash Enhancement tattoo can cause the area to swell, and so you might feel more comfortable being at home for the rest of the day. You will also need to keep these areas dry as much as possible for the days following, but you should apply aftercare during the healing period.

Cash I wash my hair/face after my tattoo appointment?

Yes, of course you can. Just avoid the tattooed area. If it gets splashed with water by accident, dab it dry with a clean cloth or cotton pad.

How long will my tattoo last?

With all Cosmetic Tattoos we recommend a 6-week touch-up to ensure pigment consistency. From there, you will find that your Brow Tattoo lasts 1-2 years, and Lip and Eyeliner Tattoo lasts around 2 years before you might consider a Colour Boost to freshen up the colour.
