Touch-ups are scheduled for many reasons. Why touch-ups? Many of my clients are a little apprehensive and choose to start with a light application. After all, it is always much easier to add on to a tattoo than it is to take away. Then, on their touch-up, they decide if they want to go darker, thicker, or even change or add color. I always recommend a follow-up treatment after the first procedure. It allows me to fine tune my work, make any adjustments as needed, and implant more ink. Many of my clients come in every 2 years just to freshen up their permanent makeup, but most will wait a little longer. When Touch-ups? Appointments for touch-ups are made after the healing process is complete. At Lasting Impression Permanent Makeup, the required wait time is 3-4 weeks for brows and eyes, and 5-6 weeks after a lip procedure. Touch-ups performed earlier can result in scarring, inaccurate color and even infection. After Touch-ups. Post-care instructions are given at the first visit, and it is extremely important that they are followed carefully. How much are Touch-ups? Fees for my touch-ups are listed on the Prices page. Please note, these fees are for my clients only.
