Topical Anesthetic Advice

Allergic reaction response may show through redness, swelling, rash, blistering, dryness or any other symptoms associated with an allergic reaction. Numbness – We cannot accept responsibility if the area to be treated does not respond to the numbing cream. Each individual is different according to skin type. Some clients report the area to be completely numb, while others may experience some discomfort.

When you arrive at your appointment, a brow map will be customized by a series of horizontal, vertical, and diagonal lines, based on your skin’s proportions and drawn on with an oil-based crayon, thus, framing the area within which hair-like strokes, shading, and/or a combination of both will be micro-pigmented/tattooed into the dermis of the skin.
