Frequently Asked Questions
If you need further advice in regards to any of the following information, please contact our friendly team today and we will be happy to help.
Are Micropigmentation Procedures Safe? The answer is yes, when carried out by a skilled technician, permanent makeup is exceptionally safe. Here at Kent Cosmedics, our Certified ID Liner Technicians use only the finest equipment and ID Liner pigments which are made from naturally occurring minerals which are carefully chosen for their non-toxic, safe and hypoallergenic properties.
Am I eligible to receive permanent makeup procedures? Although there are some exceptions, most people over 18 years of age are eligible to have at least one of the permanent makeup procedures Kent Cosmedics have to offer and our highly trained team will be able to discuss which of our services are best suited. When you attend your free consultation, your technician will be able to advise the perfect treatments for you to embark on your permanent makeup journey. However, there are certain contraindications which may mean you may not be able to have certain procedures: Are you Pregnant / Breastfeeding? Have you had Botox or dermal fillers? Have you ever suffered from cold sores? Do you have a darker skin tone and wish to receive the Permanent Lip Blush treatment? Do you already have some form of permanent makeup performed by another clinic? Have you taken Isotretinoin (Roaccutane) within the last 6 months? Do you take any blood thinning medications? Do you suffer from Keloid Scarring? If you answer yes to any of the questions above, please contact the clinic prior to booking.

What's included in my treatment for the price?

What are your cancellation policies? Other than our Free Consultions, all appointments require an online booking fee to be paid to reserve this space. This is non- refundable. If you need to reschedule your appointment, we require 48 hours notice. Failure to do so will mean we cannot use your booking fee against another appointment and you'll need to pay another booking fee to reschedule. If you cancel a free appointment with less than 48 hours notice, we will not be able to offer you another free consultation and you will be required to pay a fee of £40 to reserve another. This WILL NOT be taken off of the treatment price as we need to cover our technicians time. Only 2 x reschedules are allowed on all appointments before we keep the booking fee, even if made within the cancellation policy. If you fail to show on the day, your appointment is still chargeable and your card will be charged the full price of your scheduled treatment. We send out multiple text and e-mail reminders along the way to give you plenty of chance to reschedule if necessary.
What are your competition terms and conditions? *All Entrants must be over 18 years old ** Must have no medical or physical contraindications to treatment ***We will not accept entries from giveaway accounts, competition hunters, or those not entering from accounts we deem not to be for personal or professional use. We hold the right to not count your entry/entries if we feel you do not comply with this.

Do Permanent Makeup procedures hurt? Some skin-types can be more sensitive to the treatments and some women report it can be a little bit more sensitive during your time of the month. However, there are various methods and techniques that a technician can use to minimise any discomfort. So rest assured Kent Cosmedics will make you feel very comfortable during your treatment. If you are particularly sensitive to pain, you may want to talk to your pharmacist who will be able to advise you on a safe topical, local anaesthetic that you can use for permanent makeup and bring to the clinic to apply prior to your appointment.
How long should I expect the results of my treatment to last? There are various lifestyle factors that can affect the longevity of the results of your treatment including skin type, certain medications, skin care products etc. We usually recommend annual maintenance on your treatment, usually around 12-18 months but if you find yourself pencilling-in your makeup sooner, get in touch for a free consultation and we can assess whether you are ready for a top-up.
