Patch testing is required at least 24 hours before any semi-permanent makeup procedure. This is a simple step that takes just a few seconds to do but could save you a lot of hassle, hear ache and pain.

​

How a patch test is performed - using a lancet, pigment is gently scratched into the skin.

​

Common reactions - rashes, swelling, inflammation, irritation, soreness and lumps under the skin.

​

How often should a patch test be performed - we recommend repatching every 6 months if not had any treatments within this time.
