Timeless Beauty By Renee

General rules for all procedures:

•  No sun or tanning prior to procedure or after!!

•  Avoid rapid exfoliants on area to be tattooed. (Retin-A, glycolic acid).

•  No electrolysis in the area of the procedure.

•  If you decide to self medicate with Benadryl or a relaxant prior to a procedure, you must have a ride home. This may impair your driving. Renee will not give clients any medications.

•  Do not take aspirin, niacin, vitamin E, ibuprofen unless medically needed 48 hours prior to a procedure.

•  Avoid alcohol or caffeine prior to procedure.

•  Avoid direct shower water on treated area.

•  Avoid extreme exercise immediately prior to a procedure or directly after. No pools until healed!

•  Please allow time for all procedure(s) to heal before going on vacation, or any special events.

•  Only touch the treated areas with squeaky clean hands or q-tip. A must!

•  Clean(new) makeup can be worn 72 hours after procedure.

•  Swelling is normal for all procedures. Apply ice 10 minutes on and 10 minutes off.

•  Dry skin or itching, tenderness to treated area is normal! These symptoms will dissipate.

Eyeliner:

1. Do not wear your contact lenses. Bring your glasses. Clean contacts can be worn 72 hours after the application of eyeliner. Please buy a new tube of mascara to use after all eyeliner applications.
2. Do not use oily makeup remover or baby oil, mineral oil or heavy creams. Especially glycolic. Use non-oily makeup remover pads. I recommend using Biodroga non-oily makeup remover pads.
3. Eyelash tinting or eyelash perming must be done 72 hours prior to procedure and may be done 2 weeks following the procedure.
4. DO NOT RUB, SCRATCH OR PICK AT YOUR EYELINERS! Let any residual pigment come off naturally. Apply Heal & Seal Ointment until your follow-up appointment. A small amount twice a day just to keep area moist. If it feels itchy during the day, dab some Heal & Seal Ointment on the area.

Eyebrows:

1. Bring your favorite eyebrow pencil. Please come to appointment with out makeup unless you have a specific style you desire.
2. Eyelash tinting or eyelash perming must be done 72 hours prior to procedure and may be done 2 weeks following the procedure.
3. Apply Baccitracin or Neosporin sparingly for initial two days after procedure. A small amount twice a day just to keep area moist. If an allergic reaction occurs please notify Renee and also see a doctor.
4. Apply Heal & Seal Ointment until your follow-up appointment. A small amount twice a day just to keep area moist. If it feels itchy during the day, dab some Heal & Seal Ointment on the area.
5. DO NOT RUB, SCRATCH OR PICK AT YOUR EYEBROWS! Let any residual pigment come off naturally.

Lips:

1. If you have ever had a fever blister, cold sore you MUST get a prescription for Zovirax, Valtrax or other prescribed medication from your doctor or dentist. This must be taken in ORAL form, not cream. You must pre-medicate with an anti-viral 3 days prior and 5 days post procedure.
2. Lips are a muscle with out hair follicles or pores. If a client has a lot of scar tissue in lips the results may be weak in color intensity. A lip stick look can not be achieved with lip tattooing. However, a beautiful natural shade is a realistic goal!!!
3. Lips heal in 3 stages- too bright, then too light, and then true colors return in 3-4 weeks.
4. Avoid oily, salty or spicy food after the procedure.
5. Do not rub the area. Avoid any friction to the lip area.
6. Apply Baccitracin or Neosporin sparingly for initial two days after procedure. A small amount twice a day just to keep area moist. If an allergic reaction occurs please notify Renee and also see a doctor.
7. Gently tap Heal & Seal Ointment until your follow-up appointment. Tap in! Do not rub or it may pull out pigment before it has had a chance to heal. A small amount twice a day just to keep area moist. If it feels itchy during the day, dab some Heal & Seal Ointment on the area.
8. DO NOT RUB, SCRATCH OR PICK AT YOUR LIPS! Let any residual pigment come off naturally.

And once more, DO NOT RUB, SCRATCH OR PICK AT THE TREATED AREA. Let any residual pigment come off naturally.
