What Does a Cosmetic Tattoo Mean?
Is Cosmetic Tattooing the same as body tattoos?
Essentially they are the same in the essence that they both puncture the skin and deposit pigment resulting in a “permanent tattoo.”
But the method of deposit and depth of color implanted do differ. Machines used are usually different to allow for more of a shallow pigment deposit.
Cosmetic tattoos usually do not penetrate the skin as deep as body tattoos and colors used are usually more tailored to the face.
Is Cosmetic Tattooing painful?
There is some pain involved in cosmetic tattooing but it can be controlled. The level of pain felt does depend on the individual’s pain threshold.
A topical anesthetic is used for eyebrows and eyeliners and these usually help null or soften the pain.
For lip procedures, our clients can be referred to a dentist where a complete block is used and nothing is felt!
Is Cosmetic Tattooing Safe?
Most parts of the equipment used are disposable and prior to use you can view them in their original sterile packaging. With careful disposal of all of the disposable parts. Other non-disposable equipment and materials used should be sterilized by an onsite autoclave. Facilities should adhere to NSW Government health and safety regulations. It is up to the client to take care of the treated area appropriately post-treatment to ensure the area is kept sterile and clean.
