Is Permanent Makeup Safe?
Permanent Makeup Is Safe As Long As…
Getting your permanent makeup done is completely safe as long as your salon and artist adhere to all of their Health Department and Center for Disease Control guidelines. Here are some guidelines your artist should be following to ensure there are clean and sanitized conditions and you avoid all risks:
Everything that touches you during the procedure should be disposed of after the appointment.
All tools, most importantly needles, needle chambers and needle covers need to be factory sterilized and individually packaged before they’re used on you.
Your artist should be strictly using chemical sterilization. This ensures that the equipment is free of microorganisms, bacteria and viruses.
Your artist must be wearing disposable gloves, apron and face mask that is changed before and after your procedure.
While there are no known long-term side effects to permanent cosmetics; short-term effects may include some redness, tenderness, and swelling.
Microblading Safety
Micoblading Safety Checklist :
Microblading tool is individually wrapped and sealed.
The blade part of the microblade is individually wrapped,
The blade part of the microblade is individually certified as sterile
The microblading tool used for your procedure should come individually wrapped and sealed. The blade part of the microblade should also be individually wrapped, but additionally, certified as sterile. You should see a lot number and expiration date on the blade’s packaging. If you do not see these numbers then the needles are not guaranteed sterile and can’t be used.
Permanent Eyebrow Tattoo Safety
Permanent Eyebrow Safety Checklist :
The machine is full wrapped
Your needles are sealed in sterile packaging
Your permanent eyebrow tattoo will be done using a machine instead of a hand tool. The machine part of the tool is not disposable so it must be fully wrapped to meet safety guidelines. This wrapping is most often blue but can also be clear and it resembles cellophane.
Your needles must come sealed in sterile packaging. A lot number and expiration date must be visible or else the needles are not safe for use.
Permanent Eyeliner Tattoo Safety
Permanent Eyeliner Safety Checklist :
The machine is full wrapped
Your needles are sealed in sterile packaging
Your position and skin stretching must be correct
Permanent eyeliner tattoo safety begins with the machine being wrapped and the needles being properly sealed as sterile. The needles must of course be stamped with a lot number and an expiration date.
It’s also especially important that you have a well-trained artist to avoid other permanent eyeliner issues. A well trained and educated artist will know how to stretch your skin so that your eye is never exposed to the machine. Client position, stretching techniques, and hand positioning is taught to artists so that you remain safe. Training is the most important when it comes to your permanent eyeliner tattoo safety. Any trained professional will know how to keep you safe at all times.
Permanent Lip Blushing Safety
Permanent Lip Blushing Safety Checklist :
The machine is full wrapped
Your needles are sealed in sterile packaging
Your permanent lip blushing will also be done with a machine. This means you should see blue or clear wrapping covering the machine and anywhere your artist’s hands will go. Your needle must be sealed and opened just before your procedure. Also, you want to look for that very important lot number and expiration date that tells you your needle is guaranteed clean and sterile.
