Scott E. Kasden, MD answers: Does anyone do Permanent Makeup with sedation?

I tried to have permanent eyeliner done and could not finish the procedure due to the pain and the anxiety of the procedure. I kept trying to grab the girls arm preventing her from putting the machine near my eye - I could not control the urge to protect my eye. She is a good practitioner but the numbing solutions were not enough to minimize my discomfort.

I find that many patients are very anxious with any procedure around the eye. If your tattoo artist works with a doctor, why don't you ask if they could prescribe Valium for you, and after you are sedated, inject with local anesthesia? The injection hurts for a few seconds but after that, you could sleep through the procedure.
