    Cosmetic Tattooing Brisbane

    A Cosmetic Tattoo is the application of natural pigments into the dermal layer of the skin to create semi permanent makeup. Cosmetic tattooing is commonly referred to as permanent makeup, however the pigments fade over time (lasting 3-5 years) and reapplication is required to maintain the permanent makeup look.

    Cosmetic tattooing is completely safe. Diana our cosmetic tattooist uses only approved pigments, disposable single use application and follows strict health and safety regulations.

    Cosmetic tattoos can be used for a variety of semi permanent cosmetic enhancements.

  • eyebrows
  • eye liner
  • lip liner
  • lip blend or lipstick colour
  • Cosmetic Tattoo Brisbane

    What is the difference between a cosmetic tattoo and traditional tattooing?

    Besides the obvious that a cosmetic tattoo is a semi permanent enhancement of natural features rather than an artistic statement, the placement of pigment, the machine and type of pigment used are different.

    Cosmetic tattooing involves using natural pigments, placed more superficially to create a softer less permanent enhancement.

    Is a cosmetic tattoo painful?

    Topical anaesthetic creams are used to make the procedure more comfortable. Because Diana is an Enrolled Nurse there is an option to have analgesic block for lip procedures. Diana will discuss this with you at your free consultation.

    How much downtime is there with a cosmetic tattoo?

    There is slight reddness and swelling after the procedure, but this settles quickly. You can go back to normal activities immediedly although complete healing and settling takes one to four weeks. The final colour takes around 4 weeks to achieve and Victoria will see you for a check up 4 weeks post treatment. at that stage a touch up can be applied to refine the colour and shape if required.

    Eyeliner tattoo

    With a smudged natural look to define the eyes subtly rather than a block of colour, though some people prefer thicker, more dramatic or exotic look. Shades to enhance eye colour and eyelash enhancement are also very popular.

    With a soft natural colour palette that looks as if ‘you haven’t got makeup on’. Although a bolder application is preferred by some.

    Permanent makeup: the ’soft natural look’ is in.

    With today’s beautiful soft palette and new techniques for permanent makeup a soft natural look is possible. Our permanent makeup artist Diana prefers the natural look and her technique and choice of softer colours supports this, however some people do prefer a bold dramatic look and application is about what you want.

    Permanent makeup:

  • Won’t run or smudge.
  • Looks great 24/7.
  • Adds definition to the eyes.
  • Can reshape uneven brows or recreate brow shape lost from over plucking.
  • Create fuller lips or symmetrical lips.
  • Permanent makeup: achieve the look you want.

    Lip colour, lip liner and lip blend

    With a soft natural colour palette that looks as if ‘you haven’t got makeup on’. Although a bolder application is preferred by some.

    As routinue part of professional permanent makeup application a touch up with refinement of colour and shape is required at one month: this has two advantages, it allows a time for the makeup to settle (there is always an initial fading) allowing you to adjust to the new colour and shape and means at the second visit any refinements can be applied. It is always best to tread lightly on the first application to avoid any unwanted surprises.

    Though called permanent makeup the application is really a semi permanent enhancement lasting up to 5 years. Touch ups need to be applied after a period to maintain your colour and style definition permanently.

    Needling Scars

    The use of medical rollers for needling scars is an exciting new treatment in Cosmetic medicine. Skin needling works to induce healthy new collagen in the skin, so though originally used for scar treatment it has found wider application for treatment of wrinkles and stretch marks. Because of the safety on all skin types skin needling for scars is widely practiced in cosmetic doctors rooms across the world.

    What scars can be treated with needling?

    Scar needling safely treats and improves the cosmetic appearance of:

  • acne scars
  • surgical scars
  • the edges of skin graft scars
  • chicken pox scars
  • How does needling scar treatment work?

    Skin needling improves scar appearance by stimulating your skin to produce collagen. The medical roller creates multiple pin point wounds to the skin, stimulating release of growth factors and laying down of new collagen.

    In a nutshell needling scars has a similar improvement in cosmetic appearance to laser and chemical peels, but is less invasive, has low risk of complication and significantly improved recovery and gives a more natural healthy look to your skin. Read more on how skin needling works.

    Needling scars is affordable.

    Needling scar treatment cost varies according to the area needing treatment. Facial acne scar needling may cost $275-$330 depending on the area involved. For larger areas such as chest and back needling will cost more, but still provides an affordable and effective alternative to laser scar treatment.

    Skin needling safe for dark skin types.

    The most exciting thing about skin needling is its safety profile. Because it does not cause any significant trauma to the surface of the skin, needling dark skin types is very safe. Unlike laser and chemical peels which cause significant surface trauma with high risk of hypo or hyper pigmentation after treatment, skin needling is safe on skin type 4 and above.

    Cosmetic needling safe for delicate areas.

    Skin needling increases the thickness and health of skin. Previous treatment of facial scars with laser resulted in a thinner skin, which meant it is not safe to repeat treatments and caused an unnatural white appearance in a significant number of people. Needling is safe even on delicate areas around lips and eye lids.

    Skin Needling scars: how many treatments are required?

    Needling scar treatment generally involves 6 treatments spaced monthly to two monthly. However after the first treatment you will notice an improvement in the quality of the skin.

    Needling Stretch Marks.

    Needling stretchmarks provides an affordable option to improve the cosmetic appearance of the most hated of skin conditions. Claims of manufacturers of stretch mark creams have left many people very disappointed: the truth is there is nothing that will get rid of stretch marks entirely.

    However skin needling provides the best treatment to improve the the texture and quality of the skin affected by stretch marks.

    What causes stretch marks?

    Stretch marks are caused from tearing of deeper collagen layers of the skin when there is growth that exceeds the skins ability to adapt. There are some medical causes for stretch marks however these are less common and most often they develop during normal body expansion: adolescence, pregnancy or weight gain.

    Because the body attempts to repair the trauma, stretch marks are initially red from inflammation and slowly over years the red stretch marks are replaced with white fibrous scar tissue.

    How does skin needling reduce stretch marks?

    Skin needling induces healthy collagen and elastin production in deeper skin layers to repair the damaged areas. The area affected by stretch marks is treated with a medical roller causing tiny pin point areas of micro damage under the skin, this releases growth factors and stimulates skin fibroblasts:

  • to lay down healthy new collagen
  • induces natural melanin into the damages areas
  • improves blood supply to the area
  • Skin needling sets off a natural and progressive repair process in the skin treating the underlying cause of the stretch mark.

    How to get rid of stretch marks with needling.

    Everyone will experience improvement in the stretch mark appearance with needling but results are individual and depend on the severity, age and extent of the stretch marks. Early red stretchmarks are improved most though even older established white stretch marks will show some improvement.

    Use of prescription vitamin A derivatives improves the outcome in all patients and is recommended, however it cannot be used in pregnant or breast feeding women, which is a significant group who suffer stretch marks.

    Stretch mark treatment with skin needling.

    Skin Needling for stretch marks is considered one of the only effective ways of rebuilding skin collagen. Though return to a normal skin state is not possible, significant improvement is expected, with progressive repair occurring up to a year after a treatment series is complete. Ongoing needling and repeat treatments are safe to continue repair to a cosmetically acceptable level.

    S IPL Effectively Treats Spider Veins On The Nose

    The appearance of nose veins is really distressing for women and men. Perhaps because of the belief they are caused from alcohol people find them even more distressing. Though alcohol can worsen their appearance it does not really cause them.

    What causes nose spider veins?

    Spider veins of the nose are sometimes called nose veins, broken capillaries or nasal veins. They tend to be small (less than 2mm) and red to blue in appearance and arise because of damage to the skin and vessels from various trauma.

  • A common cause of the appearance of small veins on and around the nose is rosacea. Though no one really knows what causes rosacea the underlying factor is oversensitivity of blood vessels.
  • Sun damage is the primary cause of spider veins on the nose.

    Nose vein treatment.

    Whatever the cause, the treatment of nose spider veins or capillaries is the same. Laser treatment of nasal veins has largely been replaced by newer and more effective IPL or intense pulsed light technology.

    Nose vein removal with intense pulsed light.

    Intense pulse light is a laser like therapy which uses light of specific wavelengths to attract to and close down spider veins on the face. A treatment course with S IPL involves:

    Needling for acne scars is effective for all skin colours.

    Older acne scar treatments such as laser resurfacing, dermabrasion and chemical peels could not be performed on people with Asian and darker skin types because of the risk of hypo or hyper pigmentation.

    Skin needling provides an effective anti wrinkle treatment: rejuvenating many types of wrinkles and sun damage.

    Medical needling stimulates new collagen production in the skin to help smooth wrinkles. Although well established for treatment of acne scarring, needling wrinkles is relatively new.

    Skin needling does not work for all kinds of wrinkles, nor replace anti wrinkle injections, however it is a useful adjunct treatment that gives superior results to traditional therapies for some types of wrinkles.

    The types of wrinkles the are best treated with facial needling.

  • wrinkles arising in coarse sun damaged skin: (cobble like skin texture), tend to be deep fixed wrinkles occurring around the eyes, mouth, upper eye brow and upper lip.
  • diffuse wrinkles across the cheeks (sagging skin texture)
  • fine lines and wrinkling across whole face (crepe like skin texture)
  • Needling wrinkles before treatment Needling after wrinkles treated

    Medical needling is best used in place of other resurfacing therapies.

    Previously chemical peels or laser resurfacing were considered the treatment of choice for resurfacing of wrinkled, aged skin from sundamage. However these have considerable downtime and associated risks and can give an un-natural hypopigmented skin colour after treatment.

    Though the results of facial needling for wrinkles is not as dramatic, it works to progressively improve skin health by increasing the quality and quanity of collagen in your skin. Medical needling is safe, with little down and gives a very natural healthy glow to the complextion as it smooths and progressively softens wrinkles.

    needling wrinkles before needling wrinkles after treatment.

    Medical needling for wrinkles is affordable.

    Facial needling involves rolling a medical roller over the skin to create pin point entrance wounds that seal and heal quickly. Unlike laser resurfacing and chemical peels there is no risk of scarring, does not cause pigment changes, and is very affordable. A full facial needling will cost $330-$440 compared to cost of around $3000 for laser resurfacing.
