CONTRAINDICATIONS

​

Microblading and Permanent Makeup (PMU) is not suitable for the following medical conditions and/or medication usage:

​

ACCUTANE / RETIN A

​

If taken within the last 6 months. Retinol and Vitamin A users should discontinue usage one month prior to procedure.

 

LATISSE

​

Eyelash and eyebrow growth serum brings extra circulation (aka blood flow) to the area resulting in the growth of more hair/lashes. 

​

*Discontinue usage at least 3-6 months prior to PMU procedure.

​

PREGNANT OR BREASTFEEDING

​

PMU is not recommended as your body is experiencing many metabolic changes. Blood-borne pathogens can also be transferred to the baby in the unlikely event of exposure.

​

HEMOPHILIA / HEART CONDITIONS / BLOOD THINNERS / HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE​

​

You may be more prone to bleeding which results in poor color retention.
