Permanent Makeup Tattoo
Strengthening the Positive judgment of Permanent makeup
“Is the process on safe side?” I often hear this reply from first time, future permanent makeup and tattoo clientele. At first I wondered, “Why would they gather it was dangerous?” I looked into information articles and medical literature and there were the reasons for questioning the process’s safety: stories about untrustworthy and/or unregulated permanent cosmetics pigments, blood born pathogens including hepatitis B and C, unsanitary working conditions, and the reuse of needles and other supplies. Few and distant between were the useful stories about the beauty of skin art, the benefits of permanent makeup procedures and corrective pigment procedures. Or the efforts of the permanent makeup and tattoo industries to develop and enforce uniform sanitary guidelines. Or how the permanent makeup and tattoo industries are working closely with state and counties to ensure licensing requirements that protect the customer and practitioners. All of this negative publicity adds to the feeling that the process isn’t free from danger. I feel it is up to all of us, in the industry to strengthen the positive judgment and certainty that tattooing for makeup, corrective or esthetic reasons is risky and something that can be effective with a minimum of danger.
In what way or manner do we change the common perception of Permanent makeup Procedures?
1. Rigorously implement and follow all the
sanitation guidelines provided by the government,
our professional organizations and good common
sense. This means visibly making sure the consumer
sees and knows that the professional is creating and
working in a clean and risky conditions.
2. Know how and where the permanent cosmetics pigments are made
and that the pigment manufactures adheres to and
meets all the federal requirements under the Food,
Drug and Cosmetic Act for safety and efficiency.
3. Get involved with the organizations regulating
our industries, both legislative and expert and
become part of the change process. Remember,
they aren’t the ones doing permanent makeup or
tattooing, so they need our practitioner guidance
and input.
4. Monitor and ensure that your local news
organizations provide fair and balanced reporting
of the issues. Call or write and demand that
balanced research is provided to the public, which
is meant to educate not sensationalize the story.
5. Toot your own horn! Post signs stating your
adherence to safe sanitation practices, show for public viewing
licenses and expert certifications for your
business and practitioners.
6. Attend continuing schooling so your training
is current and you are up to date on the important
issues impacting our permanent cosmetic and
tattooing profession.
This list is not exhaustive, but rather I hope, a good starting point. By the way, how do I respond to the original question regarding the safety of the permanent makeup procedures? I ask the person to go into the office, or shop and look around. Do they see licenses and practitioner certificates posted? Ask if the customer doing the permanent cosmetics procedure is licensed and a member of a practitioner organization. Notice the cleanliness of the work area. Are equipment left open and exposed to contaminates? How frequently are tools cleaned and needles replaced (after every use)? How do they clean reusable tools and supplies? Do they check for allergic reaction prior to the procedure? Have they experienced any negative reactions to the permanent cosmetics pigments or topical anesthetic used? What are their procedures when a bad reaction occurs? And, is this a place you would be comfortable having something placed under your skin? After all, that is what permanent cosmetics and tattooing does.
Good Luck,
