Most of our clients are between 30 and 75 years old, with the majority in their 50s and 60s. At this stage, many women realize they’ve been wearing the same makeup style for years and either grow tired of the routine or find it difficult to apply makeup daily. Permanent cosmetics offer a beautiful, hassle-free solution to maintain the polished look you want—without the daily effort.

Because permanent cosmetics involve breaking the skin, some discomfort is normal—especially on the lips, which have many nerve endings. Our skilled practitioners use a combination of topical anesthetics to keep you comfortable throughout the procedure, no matter the technique. Many clients also take anti-anxiety or pain-relief medication prescribed by their doctor beforehand, though most find over-the-counter options like Aleve, Tylenol, or Ibuprofen sufficient. After your treatment, applying an ice pack can reduce any pain or swelling. Your technician will also guide you through deep breathing exercises to help you relax and manage discomfort during the session.

Depending on the procedure and technician, sessions can take between 1 to 3 hours. The typical appointment usually lasts about 1.5 hours, largely because the topical anesthetic needs time to take full effect. Feel free to bring a book or relax while you wait. Touch-ups typically take a similar amount of time since we work over the same area. Please note that heavy eyeliner applications may require extra time and could incur additional costs.

Your safety is our top priority. Permanent cosmetic tattooing is performed using sterile, single-use needles and equipment to eliminate any risk of cross-contamination. Our team follows strict hygiene and infection control protocols in line with CDC and health department standards. All pigments used are specially formulated for cosmetic tattooing and undergo rigorous testing for safety and quality. Procedures are performed by licensed, trained professionals who are experts in their craft. While minor redness or swelling can occur, serious complications are extremely rare. We also conduct thorough consultations to screen for allergies or skin sensitivities before your treatment, ensuring a safe and comfortable experience every time.

When you apply pencil, powder, or liquid makeup—whether it’s eyeliner, eyebrow pencil, or lip liner—you’re adding texture on top of your skin to enhance your features. Permanent cosmetics work differently: pigments are implanted beneath the skin’s surface, creating a smooth, natural look once healed, almost like your skin’s own color. Because of this, permanent makeup tends to appear softer and more subtle than traditional products, especially if you layer on eyeshadow, brow powders, or lipstick over it. You always have the option to add conventional makeup on top for a bolder look on special occasions. Permanent makeup is perfect for busy days when you want to skip the daily routine, for active lifestyles like sports or swimming, travel, or anytime you want to maintain a polished, “always-ready” look without the fuss.

Most people notice smoother lines in 3–5 days, with full results in about 2 weeks.

Neuromodulators typically last 3–4 months. Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months up to 18 months, depending on the type used and the area treated.

Most appointments take about 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated. This includes consultation, treatment, and aftercare instructions. It’s a quick, convenient way to refresh your look with minimal disruption to your day.

Understood! Before we start, you’ll have a thorough consultation to discuss your personal goals and desired results. We always begin with a conservative approach, gradually enhancing your features to ensure you look natural and feel confident. With experience specializing in facial contouring and symmetry, our nurse practitioner knows how to highlight your best features with subtle, artful precision.

Common side effects include minor redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. These usually resolve within a few days.

The face has a rich network of capillaries, so some bruising can happen after treatment. To minimize this, avoid aspirin, blood thinners, and ibuprofen for a few days before your appointment. Steering clear of essential oils during this time can also help reduce bruising. We’ll provide you with Arnica gel to take home—it helps speed up the healing process by breaking down bruises. If needed, creative makeup can easily conceal any bruising in the days following your treatment.

If you experience any adverse reactions, please call us right away so we can assist you promptly.

We recommend waiting two weeks before returning for any touch-ups, as it takes that time for the products to fully settle. Adjustments are a normal part of the process, so please don’t hesitate to reach out if you feel any tweaks are needed.

PDO therapy is effective for lifting and rejuvenating many areas of the face—including cheeks, brows, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, jawline, and neck—as well as other parts of the body. During your consultation, our team will assess your needs and help determine if PDO thread lifting is the right treatment for your desired area.

Keep in mind that PDO thread lift results develop gradually, as your body naturally produces collagen and elastin over time—peaking around six months after treatment. 

Results can last between 2 to 3 years, after which follow-up treatments may be needed to maintain your refreshed look.

PDO thread treatments may cause some mild to moderate discomfort, but most clients find it manageable. We use topical anesthetics and sometimes local numbing injections to minimize pain during the procedure. You might feel slight pressure or tugging as the threads are placed, but it’s generally well tolerated. After treatment, some soreness or tenderness is normal and typically fades within a few days.

A PDO thread lift typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the areas being treated. This includes preparation, the procedure itself, and post-treatment care instructions. It’s a relatively quick treatment with minimal downtime.

One of the biggest benefits of a PDO thread lift is minimal side effects and no downtime—you can return to your normal routine immediately. You might experience mild swelling or bruising for a few days, which will gradually fade. We’ll provide you with Arnica gel to help reduce bruising and speed up healing. If needed, creative makeup can easily conceal any temporary bruising in the days following your treatment.
