*Does it hurt to have the procedured done?
There is mild discomfort during the procedure. Topical numbing products are applied throughout the length
of the procedure to keep any pain as minimal as possible.
*How long does a Permanent Cosmetic procedure
last?
The length of the procedure depends on what permanent cosmetics are being applied. A lip color procedure (1 -
2 hour office visit for the first appointment with a 30 minute to an hour follow up appointment) will last longer then
beauty mark application (20 minutes - 45 minutes first appointment with a 20 minute follow up appoinment) due to: the
amount of time it takes to place pigment over the area being worked on and the time it takes for numbing to be the most
effective.
Most of the initial procedures last from 1 to 2 hours.
All of the Permanent Cosmetic procedures require two to three office visits to achieve the best aesthetic.
See appointments page of this web site for more information. More then one procedure can be performed in a day, however it
depends on the procedure and should be discussed at a consultation appointment to decide if that is appropriate for each client.
