Freckle Tattoo Services In Edmonton

The freckle tattoo is a 2-session treatment. The first session does most of the work, but a touch up 4-6 weeks later is highly recommended. 

As your skin heals from the initial session, a certain amount of pigment is extracted and the freckles lighten 30-40%. The touch- up is there to add more pigment or darken them up if needed to ensure the results last longer

• No sunbathing or tanning for 2 weeks. Tanned skin is more sensitive
• Stop using any retinol or Vitamin A products one month prior. These thin out the skin and make it bleed more 
• No Botox or filler for a month prior your appointment 
• No alcohol, ibuprofen, aspirin and fish oil supplements for at least 24 hours prior to your appointment
• No intense facial treatments such as chemical peels, microdermabrasions and micro needling ect. This will cause skin cell to rejuvenate faster resulting in skin irritation. Please schedule these treatments 2-3 weeks before your session
• No blood thinners 3-4 days prior to your session
• No alcohol or caffeine on the day of the procedure

Before your first session, your artist may do a patch test on your skin to make sure you’re not allergic to the pigment ink.

You’ll start by discussing freckle style, placement and colour with your artist. Then she will pre draw freckles before tattooing them on. Once you approve, your technician will gently open the skin with a machine to create tiny dots to create a sun-kissed natural looking freckles. But it’s important to note that they shouldn’t be perfectly round – they should look natural, and therefore, asymmetry and imperfection are desirable. The pigments are deposited close to the surface of the skin, so they can look quite natural if done right.

After the initial session, you’ll return for a follow-up session in about 4-6 weeks at which the artist will perfect the look. She might add in some freckles and readjust colour. This is known as the touch-up to perfect the session.

It takes about 4 weeks for faux/ constellation freckle tattoo to heal. Initially, your freckle tattoo color will be darker than expected. You may also have some redness or skin irritation. The color will lighten as your tattooed freckles heal and new skin develops over the area. It will take 3 to 4 weeks for your freckles to heal to see final results.

• Freckles are approximately 30-40% darker than expected healed results
• All clients will have some redness right after the procedure

WEEK 5-6

If you are unsure of which style is best suitable for you, book any style for the time being. I will be discussing with you during the consultation on the day of your appointment.

• After the procedure, keep your tattooed freckles clean and dry and then apply aftercare ointment provided by your nanoblading artist.

• Avoid sweating, saunas, and hot baths for the first 7 days. 
• Don’t wear makeup around the tattooed area for at least a week. 
• Do not pick or scratch at your scabs
• Avoid tanning beds, light therapy, microdermabrasion and chemical peels for the next 30 days.

It depends. I would have to see your old freckle tattoo first, to assess if it is fixable. And before I move forward with any appointments, I will need to see photos of your PMU freckles for evaluation. Please email me your photos to:
