Throughout her career, she has singled herself in the field of permanent cosmetics because of her artistic and technical skills.

Her approach is simple: less is more.  With an application that is truly artistic, Elaine will study your features and suggest the best application; although, she will always say to her patient that it's about them, not about her.  In the end it is about the patient comfort zone and also the way they apply their own makeup.  Elaine sees permanent makeup as a means to restore color in aging skin or simply to enhance your natural beauty.

Elaine has performed thousands of procedures over the past ten years.  She also does a lot of repigmentation of the areola complex, restoring color after reconstructive surgery, performs the "dry technique" to loosen up scar tissue before scar camouflage, etc.  Because of her medical background, she has chosen to practice in a medical setting offering full sterilization and the highest standards of safety for her patients.

She is trained in all modalities; coil machine, rotary and the hand method.  She favors the coil as well as the digital machines.  She has trained advanced permanent makeup artists nationwide wanting to offer to their patients an extremely artistic and natural application.
