Treatment Consent & Medical Disclaimer

Last Updated: 9 March 2026

Treatment Information

Permanent makeup (PMU) is a cosmetic tattooing procedure designed to enhance the appearance of brows, lips or eyeliner by implanting pigment into the skin.

While permanent makeup can create long-lasting enhancement, results may vary depending on factors such as skin type, lifestyle, health conditions and adherence to aftercare instructions.

Consultation and Suitability

All treatments carried out by PMU Dorset require a consultation prior to the procedure. During this consultation, we will:

Discuss your treatment goals

Assess suitability for treatment

Review your medical history

Explain the procedure, healing process and aftercare

In some cases, treatment may not be suitable or may need to be postponed.

Medical Disclosure

Clients must disclose any relevant medical conditions, medications, allergies, skin conditions or previous cosmetic procedures before treatment.

Failure to provide accurate medical information may affect the safety and results of the procedure.

PMU Dorset reserves the right to refuse treatment where it is considered unsuitable or unsafe.

Treatment Results

Every effort is made to achieve the most natural and balanced result possible.

However:

Results may vary from person to person

Healing outcomes differ depending on skin type and lifestyle

Multiple sessions may be required to achieve the desired result

Colour and shape may soften during the healing process

A top-up appointment is usually recommended to refine and perfect the treatment.

Risks and Healing

As with any cosmetic procedure, there are potential risks and side effects which may include:

Redness or swelling

Minor tenderness

Uneven healing or pigment retention

Allergic reactions (rare)

Detailed aftercare instructions will be provided to support the healing process.

Aftercare Responsibility

Following the correct aftercare is essential for optimal healing and results.

Clients are responsible for following the aftercare guidance provided by PMU Dorset. Failure to follow aftercare instructions may affect the final outcome of the treatment.

Liability

By booking a treatment with PMU Dorset, clients acknowledge that they understand the nature of the procedure and the potential healing process involved.

PMU Dorset will always prioritise client safety and professional standards but cannot guarantee specific results.
