Permanent Makeup Waiver
You will be asked if you have read this when signing in before your procedure.
Consent and Release Agreement
This form is designed to give information needed to make an informed choice of whether or not to undergo a permanent cosmetics application. If you have questions, please feel free to ask. Although permanent cosmetic tattooing is effective in most cases, no guarantee can be made that a specific client will benefit from the procedure. This is the process of inserting pigment into the dermal layer of the skin and is a form of tattooing. All instruments that enter the skin or come in contact with body fluids are sealed and sterilized before use and disposed of after use. Cross contamination guidelines are strictly adhered to. Generally, the results are excellent, however, a perfect result is not a realistic expectation. Usually, a touch-up is expected after the healing is completed.
Initially, the color will appear much more vibrant or darker compared to the end result. Usually within 5-7 days, the color will fade 10-50%, soften and look more natural. The pigment is permanent but will fade somewhat over time and will likely need to be touched-up through the years. Possible risks, hazards or complications:
• Pain: There can be pain even after the topical anesthetic has been used. Anesthetics work better on some people than others.
• Infection: Infection is very unusual. The areas treated must be kept clean and only freshly cleaned hands should touch the areas. Click HERE for aftercare instructions
• Uneven Pigmentation: This can result from poor healing, infection, bleeding or many other causes. Your follow up appointment will likely correct any uneven appearance.
• Asymmetry: Every effort will be made to avoid asymmetry but our faces are not symmetrical, so adjustments may be needed during the follow up session to correct any unevenness.
• Excessive Swelling or Bruising: Some people bruise and swell more than others. Ice packs may help and the bruising and swelling typically disappears within 1-5 days. Some people don’t bruise or swell at all.
• Eye Exposure: There is a small risk of eye injury when an eyeliner procedure is performed. To avoid corneal abrasion, Celluvisc, a thick eye drop is used to protect the eye prior to the procedure. Eye drops are used to cleanse and flush the eye after the procedure is complete.
• Anesthesia: Topical anesthetics are used to numb the area to be tattooed. Lidocaine, Prilocaine, Benzocaine, Tetracaine and Epinephrine in a cream or gel form are typically used. If you are allergic to any of these please inform me immediately.
• MRI: Because pigments used in permanent cosmetic procedures contain inert oxides, a low level magnet may be required if you need to be scanned by an MRI machine. You must inform your technician of any tattoos or permanent cosmetics you may have.
• Fitzpatrick skin types 1-2 (Red heads/Blondes-fair skin-light eyes). You will be red, swollen and sometimes the pigment will not retain well and you may require additional procedures.
• Fitzpatrick skin types 3-6 please note the hair strokes will not be as visible as on lighter skin types.
• Alopecia - Due to change in skin & follicles, not all types of Alopecia clients are candidate for hair strokes technique.
• Large Pores/Oily/Severely Oily Skin (Pigment will look more powdered/solid)
• Have Thyroid/Graves disease, Hepatitis (A,B,C) Medications cause the pigment not to retain properly.
• Trichotillomania-pulling disorder - Due to scar tissue pigment will not retain well & WILL blur.
• Eczema or Dermatitis in or around the eyebrows (chronic shedding, bumps, redness, irritation or flaking of the skin in the eyebrow area) will cause pigment not to retain properly.
• Any type of organ transplant that requires anti-rejection medications will cause pigment not to retain properly.
• I understand that pigments implanted in TAN skin WILL potentially heal darker, appear ashy and WILL NOT look like hair strokes. Tan skin may also result in a more faded appearance due the skin having been damaged prior to the procedure.
• I understand there is a small possibility of an allergic reaction. You may request a 15 min patch test to determine this.
• The alternative to these possibilities is to use cosmetics and not undergo the Permanent Cosmetics procedure.
By signing the waiver in the app provided by Forbidden Fruit Tattoo & Piercing, I agree to the following:
• I understand if I wear contact lenses and I am receiving a procedure concerning my brows or eye liner, it is my responsibility to either wear glasses or bring a contact case with me. I may also bring my own solution or drops for flushing my eyes which will likely occur multiple times during the eye liner procedure.
• I understand that being on any acne medication will cause pigment NOT to stay.
• I understand I need to be off any steroid medication for one month prior to procedure or pigment WILL NOT stay.
• I understand aftercare instructions will be explained to me at the end of the procedure and a copy will be given to me to retain in my possession, which I will follow.

• I understand that a certain amount of discomfort is associated with this procedure and that swelling, redness and bruising may occur.
