An eyeliner tattoo involves the application of natural pigments into the dermal layer of the eye line to create a more open, appealing and sometimes more exotic look to the eyes.
Cosmetic eyeliner tattoo
Eye liner makes your eyes look bigger and can enhance your natural eye colour. It has been a makeup trick of women for centuries to create more appealing looking eyes. The variation is cosmetic eyeliner tattooing is enormous, from a subtle natural look; implanting pigmentation in the lash line to create more definition and the appearance of thicker eyelashes, shadowing of colours to enhance the natural eye colour, to bold thicker application of eyeliner for a more exotic look.
Wake up with your eyes looking bright and defined and continue that look all day no matter how active you are without applying eyeline pencil.
Eye liner tattoo is suitable for women who:
Our cosmetic tattoo artist Victoria will spend time discussing what you want to achieve with your eyeliner tattoo. Though she will lend her professional opinion on the style, shape and colour to enhance your natural eye features the choice is ultimately yours.

Is there any problem with having eye liner tatooing done while breastfeeding??
Dr Joanne Turner responded on 24 Sep 2008 at 7:41 pm #
Hi Cyntia, I will get Victoria to respond to this as she is the expert on Eyeliner tattooing. She will email you back directly and I will put a follow up comment on this eye liner tattoo page. Jo
Dr Joanne Turner responded on 04 Oct 2008 at 4:15 pm #
I am sorry to have taken so long to get back to you Cyntia, I talked with Victoria and there is no problem with breast feeding and eyeliner tattooing.
The only consideration may be the numbing cream she uses, which to be extra sure, you may want to express so you can miss the breast feeding for four hours afterward.
This is really just to be extra certain, as the amount used would not register in the blood stream or milk.
Call us on 33505447 to book a free consultation with Victoria. regards Jo

how much to have eye liner tattoo please i had it done about 4 years ago and want it redone a bit thicker
Dr Joanne Turner responded on 13 Oct 2008 at 6:11 pm #
Hi Chaie, The cost for upper or lower eyeliner tattooing is $380, if you get both it is $680. If it is a touch up sometimes is does not cost as much, but you would have to see Victoria for her to determine this, it depends on how long ago you had the treatment etc. Victoria does free consultations, so the best thing is to ring up and get an appointment with her. Call us on 33505447 to book a free consultation.

Emma responded on 25 Oct 2008 at 3:04 pm #
Do you use anesthetic on the eye area. I have a friend who had it done and they used nothing, but I would prefer to have some sort of pain relief if available.
Dr Joanne Turner responded on 26 Oct 2008 at 10:14 am #
Hi Emma, Victoria definitely uses numbing gel to do the eyeliner tattooing. She tattooed my upper eye line, the first pass did bite quite a bit, but when she put the second layer of numbing gel on I did not feel pain at all after that. It is not that pleasant an experience, but I am going back to get my lower lid done and I do not really like pain.
The best thing is to come in for a free assessment with Victoria, there is no obligation with this and she will go through everything with you at the time.

do your eyes swell up when you have had top and bottom eye liner done
Dr Joanne Turner responded on 06 Feb 2009 at 12:08 pm #
Hi Shelley,
Yes there is swelling after getting eyeliner tattooing done, however it is very short lived. Usually by the next day it is fairly settled, however it is usually best to get the procedure done Friday or Saturday morning so that you have the weekend to let it settle. Vicky our tattooist works alternate Fridays and Saturdays for this reason. If you are interested in finding out more it is best to book in for a free consultation and discuss everything with her. Jo

do you use emla for the numbing?
Dr Joanne Turner responded on 16 Feb 2009 at 2:23 pm #
Hi Donna, Vicky does use a numbing cream very similar to emla for the eyeliner tattoo.
sophia responded on 16 May 2009 at 3:24 am #
try dr. numb numbing cream.It really works!
Dr Joanne Turner responded on 21 May 2009 at 9:25 am #
Hi Sophia, thankyou for your suggestion I will check with Vicky to see which numbing cream she is using, she has a pretty good one, but it is always good to get new recommendations.

Caroline King responded on 11 Jul 2009 at 4:27 am #
Hi, how long does it take to line the bottom of an eye? Also, I am not good at all with pain nor with having something close to my eye - hence I am not able to wear contacts. Will this be a problem?
Thank you,
Caroline
Dr Joanne Turner responded on 12 Jul 2009 at 8:36 am #
Hi Caroline, the best thing would be to come in for a free consutation with Vicky and she will assess, once talking through the eyeliner tattoo procedure, whether you would be suitable.. I guess we all have fears of some sort and she would really need to work out the degree, as she is very good and very reassuring and very professional but if you have this particular fear she would need to assess how well you can work together before undertaking eyeliner tattooing. It will take about half an hour for the procedure and Vicky does use numbing cream.
There is no obligation with the assessment so call on 33505447 to book a free consultation at the outset.

wendy latimer responded on 28 Aug 2009 at 3:26 pm #
what is the name of the numbing cream that you use and can it be purchased at a chemist
Dr Joanne Turner responded on 29 Aug 2009 at 5:14 am #
Hi Wendy, Vicky has just started using an extra strong numbing gel, which has meant that the cosmetic tattooing procedures have become virtually pain free. All of her clients have been rapt (those who have experienced tattooing previously have been astounded by how much more comfortable the procedure is), however it is not available over the counter it is only suitable for treatment application in controlled environment.

Hi, is it possible to have eyeliner tatoo’s removed at a later date? Just wondering about the permanency of it. Thanks alot,
Dr Joanne Turner responded on 01 Sep 2009 at 5:56 am #
Hi Christy, all cosmetic tattooing fades with time. You are generally looking at 2-5 years longevity so if you eyeliner tattoo you would expect that it will fade naturally with time and there is no need to remove it. Jo
Sandy responded on 07 Sep 2009 at 8:51 pm #
Can I resume work immediately after the treatment of lower eye?
Regards
Sandy
Dr Joanne Turner responded on 10 Sep 2009 at 6:31 am #
Hi Sandy, we would not generally recommend going straight back to work after eyeliner tattooing as you tend to be a little bleary eyed. In saying this our practice manager Carmel had both upper and lower eyeliner done a couple of weeks ago and she went straight back to work and even out to dinner that night and we have had other clients do this. If you are interested, call us on 33504625 and book a free assessment with Vicky and she will explain all that is involved and you can decide if you are brave enough to go straight back to work then. Jo

Hi Lorna, The cost for bottom eyeliner tattooing is $460. Jo
Tanya responded on 17 Jan 2010 at 10:41 am #
Hello Dr Jo,
I have been reading all the posts here and realised a price increase.
Could you please tell me what the current charges are for upper and lower eyeliner,brows and lip blend? Is there a discount available if more then one procedure is required?
Have a great day!
Thankyou,
Tanya
Dr Joanne Turner responded on 22 Feb 2010 at 11:46 am #
Hi Tanya, the cost increase for the cosmetic tattooing has been because we have intergrated the cost of the touch up treatment into the original cost. We did this because our ladies asked us to, however Vicky is entirely flexible about this and if you prefer to pay for the original treatment and touch up seperately she still will do this. I am sure Vicky will also give discounts if you get multiple areas done. In saying this, I am currently working from home and do not have the exact prices in front of me, so will email the details. regard Jo
