Pre-Appointment Information
TO HELP YOU ACHIEVE THE BEST RESULTS OUT OF YOUR NEW COSMETIC TATTOO PROCEDURE, PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ ALL OF THE BELOW INFORMATION.
Before making your appointment, clients need to take full responsibility in confirming all medical history and photos if you have had previous tattooing. It is also the client’s full responsibility to understand the nature of their chosen treatment as the procedure is not deemed completed until you have returned for the required touch-up treatments.
Ongoing aftercare requirements are mandatory for all procedures where healed results vary in clients depending on skin type & ability to follow the aftercare instructions.
Before your Cosmetic Tattoo appointment
No alcohol or caffeine at least 24 hours before your appointment.
Avoid intense exercise at least 24 hours before your appointment.
Botox and filler above the eyes must be avoided at least 4 weeks before any eyebrow tattooing and 4 weeks post procedure.
Stop the use of blood thinning medication at least 1 day prior (this includes, but is not limited to Aspirin, Advil, Aleve, Naproxen, Vitamin E, Turmeric and Fish Oil).
Refrain from using skin care actives around the area at least 2 weeks prior such as retinol, vitamin c, glycolic acid, other types of AHAs/BHAs, niacinamide and other brightening and/or anti-aging products.
Limit sun exposure and tanning services in the days leading up to your appointment. If your skin is sunburnt, you can not undergo cosmetic tattooing.

If your brows have been previously tattooed elsewhere, you must be pre-approved before booking an appointment. Please send a clear, well-lit and make-up free photograph of your current work to hello@studiotamsenrae.com so we may evaluate it.

Appointment Rules
ON THE DAY OF YOUR APPOINTMENT
Please arrive makeup free on treatment area.

Please plan to arrive 15 minutes early just because there is often construction, trains and traffic preventing clients from arriving on time.

No need to groom, shape, wax, thread, trim or shape your brows prior to your appointment. Tamsen will take care of that for you.
