Cosmetic tattooing, sometimes referred to as Semi permanent make up or SPMU is where coloured pigment is implanted into the skin, using a sterile needle cartridge, producing make up which will last for several years. It is very much different to a traditional tattoo.

For all bookings we require 50% of the treatment price to secure an appointment. The balance is due on the day of the treatment and we accept cash or bank transfer.

Your technician will give you all of the appropriate aftercare in full after your treatment and discuss this with you prior to your treatment starting. After treatment you may experience some swelling/redness for up to 48 hours after your treatment. During the healing process you will experience some scabbing of the area. Please do not pick at the area as this may risk infection or pulling pigment out of the area. Try to keep the area as dry as possible during the healing process. We recommend you do not swim, sunbathe or use a sauna/jacuzzi for 2 weeks after the procedure.

Some clients feel no sensation at all, others feel mild discomfort. Topical numbing is used to control discomfort if required. Clients say that having a procedure is comparable to having their eyebrows tweezered or their legs waxed.

No, you can go into work the same day if need be. For Medical Tattoo either a dressing may be needed for the first 48 hours. If no dressing is needed, the area may look red and/or slightly swollen. Lips and eyes are the areas that may swell, so it is advisable to have your treatment at least 48 hours before an important event.

Unfortunately not, we are not insured to carry out treatment during this time.

A colour patch test on the skin will be required before treatment commences, however, your Vitiligo should not be changing, expanding or have spread for 7 years before you can have this treatment, a requirement set by UK insurance companies.

You will need a colour boost when either the area is 50% faded, or the colour starts to change.

We have two locations where we offer treatment; Harley Street in London & Worthing, West Sussex

Yes. This is a really important part of the treatment, both for you and for us. This is very much an opportunity to ask us any questions and discuss any concerns, and we in turn will take time to fully explain the treatment, what it entails and if the treatment is suitable for you. You will also be advised how many treatments are recommended For convenience, we offer virtual consultations which are free and with no obligation. If you require a patch test as part of your consultation, there will be a charge.

Please do not arrive for an appointment with a child, as they are not allowed in reception on their own, and they are not allowed in the treatment room. This is for the safety of your child and the management of your appointment and treatment.

Numerous studies have shown that even for people who have large body tattoos there is little to or no irritation. It is recommended that you inform the MRI specialist prior to a treatment that you have had a micropigmentation procedure.

You can have injectables e.g. Botox, Restylane etc but SPMU must either be done 6 weeks prior or 6 weeks post.

The Red Cross states that blood cannot be given for 6 months after a micropigmentation procedure.
