Lorna Poulos Permanant Makeup Artist scarred customer Midland, Michigan
I have been going to Lorna Poulos a number of years to simple permanent makeup procedures. I've had no issues with this person until recently. In late March I went to another permanent makeup artist for a simple procedure, I thought it would be simple, which was botched. I emailed Lorna Poulos and asked could she minimize it (the procedure was on my face).
My appointment was April 6, 2011. I requested to this person to minimize the beauty mark on my face. She numbed the area and I trusted her. She stated she was going to perform a saline solution procedure. When I looked in the mirror after she completed it, I was horrified.
I researched what is involved in the saline solution, it is not what she performed on me, and I also researched other procedures as well. She performed a dermabrasion procedure which involved removing the skin to remove the tatoo. I literally had a gross sore on my face because she removed layers of skin. This thing swears she completely explained what she was going to do. I would never, never agree to a procedure that would leave a scar on my face.

Yes, it will be going on 4 years since Lorna Poulos drilled a tatoo off my face. As I stated then, I'll stated now
she completely lied about the procedure she performed on me and because I was numb I couldn't feel what this
person was doing to me. This person has no integrity at all - People of color face unique issues when the skin
receives trauma that white people do not or would never experience. This person has the audicity respond
as though she did nothing unethical. Once again and I emphasize that she did not perform a saline solution
tattoo removal as she stated she would do - she completely lied and for some bizarre reason, that I would stay
quiet about it. I really hope people read this and avoid going to this person!!!

Well it's been a couple years now and I haven't seen Helen from Saginaw, but family and friends and many clients have encouraged me to respond. I'm not really in favor of sites like this because anyone can say anything they wish. But I will be brief. I've performed removal of misplaced tattooing on many people with the same method that I used on this young lady. The same way I was taught to do years ago.
This tattoo was misplaced by someone else trying to make Helen's beauty mark on her cheek a little larger. She asked me to correct it for her. Helen was not happy with a wound which was smaller then the end of a wooden Q-tip. And I understand that women of color heal differently then very fair skin does. But healing can take more time then six weeks.
I wish her well, but my reputation is a very good one with clients coming from all over the United States. I would like to refer you to my sites.
Thank you, Lorna Poulos
