  • Eyebrow Designer Series Colours
    International Institute of Permanent Cosmetics 1.800.984.4331. phone www.permanentmakeupproducts.com Pigment Colour Guide This colour information is for Absolute Perfection and Tri-Lab Products Pigment Colours. Tri-Lab Products has a selection of 55 colours and Absolute Perfection has a selection of 21 colours. We developed Absolute Perfection Colours for the person that prefers little to no custom blending of their colours. Why have 2 pigment colour lines and what are the differences? Absolute Perfection and Tri-Lab Designer Series of Colours are made by the same chemists providing the same product consistency. They are the only 2 company’s pigments that can be mixed safely together. Absolute Perfection colours are a bit thicker than the Designer Series Colours. If you like to work with ‘thinner’ pigments, you can either thin your Absolute Perfection colours down with ‘Numit’ anesthesia or use our ‘Rewetting Solution’ with the proper levels of Alcohol, Glycerine and Distilled Water. Most of Absolute Perfection’s pigment colours are a shade or two lighter - between the Designer Series Colours. 1 International Institute of Permanent Cosmetics 1.800.984.4331. phone www.permanentmakeupproducts.com . CAUTION: If you are going to use this colour by itself, always patch test it in the lip area and wait 6-8 weeks for the colour to heal. If the client has heavy melanin (blue undertones) in their lips, it can heal too brown and the client will look like they have been eating chocolate. Add a few drops of ‘Warm It Up’ for Brows to Salmon, Cognac, Blush, Nude, Champagne, Natural Berry Kiss or Burnt Orange for an earth–tone colour.

  • Permanent Cosmetic Scar Camouflaging
    Permanent Cosmetic Scar Camouflaging Camouflaging Scars With Permanent Make-Up Camouflaging Scars and their appearance is a personal aesthetic decision. Camouflaging scars using permanent makeup tattooing is possible for small scars and large scars. Permanent cosmetic scar camouflaging can successfully reduce the appearance of scars and in some cases eliminate the appearance of scars. Each person is unique as is their scar tissue and should be evaluated before proceeding with permanent cosmetic scar camouflaging. Scar Camouflage Is An Advanced Specialty. Potential clients should know micro pigmentation to camouflage scars uses advanced cosmetic procedures and they need to feel very comfortable with the skill level of their scar camouflage specialist. Before selecting a scar camouflage technician - Ask Questions ! Have they taken the advanced continuing education courses in this specialized area you are considering? Does your local permanent cosmetic clinician have the required certificates or licenses to perform the necessary procedures to camouflage scars or any other permanent cosmetic procedures? Most, insurance companies do not cover scar reduction procedures for persons practicing without additional training and experience in the industry. Prior to permanent make up scar reduction, multiple surgeries are required to restore facial features for those people who have been in serious accidents. However, once their plastic surgery heals, permanent makeup and scar camouflaging can begin to help restore a normal appearance both artistically and scientifically. Permanent Cosmetic Scar Camouflaging Does It Really Work? Permanent Makeup, Micro-pigmentation, Derma-graphics. Whatever name you choose to use to describe the process of permanent make up and its use to hide large scars or eliminate small scars, the procedures are the same as are the results also known as permanent cosmetic scar camouflage.

  • Laser Hair Removal Treatment Consent Form
    LASER HAIR REMOVAL TREATMENT CONSENT FORM A Lowcountry Plastic Surgery Center Professional has explained to me the nature, goals, limitations and possible complications of this procedure and alternative forms of treatment. I have had the opportunity to ask questions about the procedure, its limitations and possible complications. These have been answered to my satisfaction. I understand that all items contained herein apply to the following procedure(s): Laser-Assisted Hair Removal and Intense Pulsed Light-Assisted Hair Removal. The purpose of this procedure is to diminish and remove hairs. This procedure may require one or more treatments and may not produce total permanent hair removal. Alternative methods are electrolysis, other laser-assisted hair removal technologies, various topical therapies, and shaving. I clearly understand the following: 1. The potential benefits of the proposed procedure(s). 2. The possible alternative procedure(s). 3. The probability of success of my selected procedure. 4. The goal of Laser Hair Removal, as in any cosmetic procedure, is improvement, not perfection. 5. There is no guarantee that the expected or anticipated results from the treatments will be achieved. 6. For best results, I have been informed that multiple treatments are needed. More treatments may be needed depending on skin type, previous methods of hair removal, and hair color. 7. I must avoid tweezing, waxing, threading, and bleaching treatment areas. 8. Hormonal imbalance, pregnancy, and menopause can affect treatment outcomes. 9. Contraindictations

  • Permanent Makeup E
    Pre-Procedure Care and Instructions: Permanent Makeup Eyebrows, Eyeliner, Lip Liner, Full Lip Color and Beauty Marks ALL SEMI-PERMANENT COSMETIC PROCEDURES ARE MULTI-SESSION PROCESSES. An initial application is incomplete until after a follow-up appointment, which must be scheduled approximately 4-8 weeks after your initial appointment to insure a nice lasting beautiful color and length of time the tattoo will last for you. There is an additional charge for the follow-up appointment. WHILE YOUR SKIN HEALS, BE PREPARED FOR THE COLOR INTENSITY OF YOUR PROCEDURE TO BE SIGNIFICANTLY LARGER, SHARPER, BRIGHTER, OR DARKER than what is expected for the final outcome. This is a normal and expected result of the application and healing process. The healing process will take a number of days to complete, depending on how quickly the outer layer of your skin exfoliates and new skin regrows to take its place. Since delicate skin or sensitive areas may swell slightly or redden, some clients feel it best not to make social plans for a day or two following any procedure. You may like to bring your lip or brow pencils with you the day of the procedure. The Injected tones may initially simulate the exact tone or color desired, it may not always remain a perfect match. Injected tones are constant, while your skin tones will vary depending on exposure to cold, heat, sun and circulatory changes. Pre-Procedure Instructions Eyebrows: Tweezing or waxing should be done at least 48 hours prior to the procedure; electrolysis no Less than 5 days before. Do not resume any method of hair removal for at least 10 days prior to procedure and 14 days after.

    this is beyond the scope of this section, we acknowledge this form of hypersen- sitivity due to the severity of the poten- tial reactions and direct the reader to key sources.1,2 Focus Allergic contact dermatitis represents a ALLERGEN T helper cell Type 1 (Th1) dependent delayed-type (Type IV) hypersensitivity reaction. The instigating exogenous antigens are primarily small lipophilic chemicals (haptens) with a molecular weight less than 500 Da. Unlike other haptens, metal antigens do not covalently bind to carrier pro- teins; instead they complex with pro- teins similar to the binding of cobalt 1 and vitamin B12. On direct antigen exposure to the skin or mucosa, an immunologic cas- cade is initiated that includes cytokines, i.e. interleukin 2 (IL-2) and interferon gamma (IFN-γ), T cells and Langerhan cells. This complex interaction leads to the clinical picture of ACD, an impor- tant disease with high impact both in terms of patient morbidity and eco- nomics. The primary focus of this section is to highlight the educational component of allergic contact dermatitis.
