Lorraine Artale Artist/Owner
Hello, I'm Lorraine Artale, the creative force behind CosMedic Studio.
With a BFA in fine art from Pratt and 29 years as an art teacher, my journey took a poignant turn in 2008 during my battle with breast cancer. It was then that I discovered the power of scar camouflage and realistic areola tattooing.
Retirement didn't mean stepping back; it was a transition into a purposeful role. I channel my artistic talent into helping others through permanent cosmetics and medical tattooing. This is not just a job; it's my passion.
CosMedic Studio proudly boasts a 5-star rating on Google, a testament to my commitment to excellence in Permanent Cosmetic and Medical Tattooing in Westchester.
Considering adding these services to your repertoire? I'm ready to bring my expertise to you – just let me pack up and head your way!
EYEBROWS MICROBLADING
Microblading is a tattooing method which uses a hand tool to implant pigment into the skin, create hair strokes for a natural brow look. Microblading is a great option to fill in bald patches, add tails, density, fix over plucked brows and to create symmetry. The style of the brow can be a natural look , groomed to fluffy. To find out if you are a candidate for microblading text or call Lorraine directly at 914-527-0607 What can you expect after having my brows microbladed. For the first 48 hours you are directed to blot any weeping of clear fluid you may have some redness and inflammation. For days 1-9 you will have noticeably darker brows and light scabbing. How noticeable the scabs are depends on how well you follow aftercare. You will be directed to wash your brows gently with soap and water in the AM and PM for days 1-9. After about 7-9 days the thin scabs naturally flake off and the pigment under the skin will be noticeably lighter. Week 2-3 color is below the skin and you can use makeup on brows during this time. Over the next 4-6 weeks the pigment will gradually become visible from the surface. Your brows need to be built up over two appointments. At 6 weeks you come in for a touch up and we do it all over again . Microblading lasts 9-18 months on average 12 months.

PERMANENT LIP MAKEUP
A few things You need to know about lip blush/ lip color tattooing. Lip blush requires two appointments for maximum color density. Lip services require two appointments. Six weeks a part. You will be completely numb through out the procedure. It is not pinchy, more scratchy like a tooth brush . Lip blush is for clients who want to define the vermilion edge of their lips ( as we get older this line fades) Lip blush is to give the lips an all over light wash of color. A flushed defined lip is a sign of youth. Lip blush tattooing is how you cheat Father time. Lip blush is not to make lips bigger. Tattooing beyond the natural lip line will heal poorly, separate and require removal. The actual procedure of tattooing/ needling your lips can trigger a massive cold sore/ herpes break out... so what’s a girl to do? Well first of all you are not alone. Fifty percent to 80 percent of U.S. adults have oral herpes. All you’re going to do is simply call your general practitioner and request a 10 day prescription for Valtrex . You are going to take Valtrex two days before your service, the day of and two days after. You will repeat that regimen of anti viral for the follow up appointment, which is six weeks after the initial appointment. Lips do have a healing period of 1-7 days you will experience light to moderate peeling. Each appointment is 2 hours long. Lip pigmentation lasts 1.5-5 years.
3D AREOLA & NIPPLE DESIGN
In the aftermath of mastectomy or gender reassignment, I offer support in recreating Areolas through tattooing. These tattoos utilize ink to ensure long-lasting color. Due to compromised skin, the process may necessitate 1-3 appointments, with the first two appointments covered within the $338 fee per Areola. Both the initial and follow-up sessions are encompassed in the $338. Any extra appointments incur a fee of $288 each.
SCAR CAMOUFLAGE
Is a tattooing procedure designed to conceal healed, white scars. Common areas for scar camouflage include scars from past injuries, surgeries, face lifts, ear scars, abdominoplasty, breast augmentation, liposuction scars, and stretch marks.
Performed on compromised skin, scar camouflage is inherently unpredictable, requiring multiple sessions—typically ranging from 1 to 6 sessions based on the client's needs.
This procedure is also beneficial for clients with Vitiligo, allowing re-pigmentation of blank or void areas to harmonize with their natural skin tone. The needling process stimulates collagen production in treated areas, providing an additional benefit.
It's important to note that pigmented areas will not tan and will consistently appear lighter than tanned skin. To determine if you're a suitable candidate for scar camouflage, reach out to Lorraine directly. The cost is $338 per session, inclusive of a full-size Rescue MD for aftercare. Multiple sessions may be necessary for optimal results.
