• Under the age of 18
• Pregnant or breastfeeding
• Viral infections or contagious diseases
• Blood clotting disorders / haemophilia
• Recent major heart conditions or organ transplants

• Skin irritations, eczema, psoriasis, infections, or open wounds on the treatment area
• Currently taking prescription acne medication
• Medically diagnosed keloid scarring
• Severe hyperpigmentation disorders
• Known allergy to pigments or products used during the treatment

• After completing prescription acne treatment

Permanent Makeup treatments may not be suitable whilst undergoing certain prescription acne treatments. Treatment may only be considered once the medication has been discontinued for the period recommended by your healthcare professional.

• Topical steroids

Topical steroids may thin and weaken the skin. Depending on the condition and sensitivity of the skin, the treatment area may not be suitable for Permanent Makeup. Doctor approval may be required before proceeding with treatment.

• History of cold sores

Clients with a history of cold sores may experience a flare-up following lip treatments. Professional medical advice may be recommended before treatment.

• Diabetes

Diabetes may affect healing, circulation, skin recovery, and pigment retention. Healing may take longer and Permanent Makeup may heal unevenly or fade faster in some diabetic clients. If your diabetes is not well controlled, medical clearance from your GP or specialist may be required before proceeding with treatment.

• Epilepsy

Certain medical conditions or medications may increase the risk of sensitivity, dizziness, or fainting during the procedure. Please discuss your condition with your doctor before booking treatment.

• Medications and antibiotics

Certain medications and antibiotics may affect healing, recovery, and pigment retention following Permanent Makeup treatments.

• Blood-thinning medication

Certain medications and supplements may increase bleeding, bruising and affect healing following treatment.

• Autoimmune conditions (including cancer, HIV, etc.)

Certain autoimmune conditions and related medications may affect healing and pigment retention. Doctor approval may be required before proceeding with treatment.

• Glaucoma

Eyeliner treatments may not be suitable for clients with glaucoma due to increased intraocular pressure and sensitivity around the eye area. Please consult your doctor before booking eyeliner treatments.

• Vitiligo

There is a risk that the condition may spread or react following skin trauma. We cannot implant pigment into white depigmented areas; however, in some cases it may be possible to work around the area following full consultation and acceptance of the risks involved.

• General health

Clients should attend appointments fit and well, and not under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Excessive alcohol consumption before treatment may increase bleeding and negatively affect pigment retention and healing.

• Eye surgery

If you have had LASIK, cornea repair, or other eye surgery procedures, you will need to wait at least 6 months before having Permanent Makeup treatments in the eye area.

• Scars

Scars from surgery or injury must be fully healed for at least 12 months before treatment.

• Skin conditions or irritations

Pimples, active cold sores, bruising, sunburn, infections, or other skin irritations in the treatment area must be fully healed before your procedure. If there are raised moles or skin lesions within the treatment area, they may need to be removed and fully healed beforehand if it is not possible to work around them safely.

• Active skincare & aesthetic treatments

Please avoid prescription acne medications, strong exfoliating skincare products, and active aesthetic treatments (chemical peels, microneedling, dermal rollers, anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers, strong exfoliation, etc.) for at least 3–4 weeks prior to your appointment and until healing is completed (approximately 4–6 weeks), as the skin may become more sensitive and prone to irritation.

Recent anti-wrinkle injections may affect facial symmetry, muscle movement, and pigment placement. For best results, it is generally recommended to schedule Permanent Makeup treatments before these procedures or allow sufficient time for the effects to settle before treatment.

If you currently have dermal fillers, it is generally recommended to wait 3–4 weeks until the filler has fully settled before proceeding with lip treatments. This helps ensure optimal symmetry, healing, and pigment retention.
