Permanent makeup is suitable for most individuals who want to enhance their natural features without the hassle of applying makeup every day. However, certain factors should be considered:

Ideal Candidates:

• People with busy lifestyles who want to save time on daily makeup routines.

• Those with allergies or sensitivities to traditional makeup products.

• Individuals with thin or sparse eyebrows, eyeliner smudging issues, or uneven lip color.

• People with certain medical conditions like arthritis, who may find it challenging to apply makeup.

• Those who suffer from conditions like alopecia, scarring, or hair loss in specific areas, and wish to restore the appearance of fuller eyebrows or a defined lip line.

Not Recommended For:

• Pregnant or breastfeeding women.

• Individuals with certain skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis in the treatment area.

• Those with keloid scarring tendencies.

• Anyone with active infections in or near the treatment area.

• People who are currently undergoing chemotherapy or have a weakened immune system.

1. Time-Saving: Wake up every day with perfectly applied makeup, eliminating the need for daily applications and touch-ups.

2. Smudge & Waterproof: Permanent makeup is resistant to water, sweat, and oils, ensuring your makeup stays intact throughout the day.

3. Natural Look: Expertly applied permanent makeup can enhance your natural features with a subtle, customized design.

4. Confidence Boosting: Enhance your features and correct imperfections such as asymmetry or sparse eyebrows, helping you feel more confident.

5. Convenient for Active Lifestyles: Ideal for those who exercise, swim, or work in environments where makeup may wear off quickly.

6. Low Maintenance: After the initial procedure, little maintenance is required to keep your look fresh and natural.

During a permanent makeup procedure, a highly trained technician uses a machine or manual tool with a fine needle to deposit pigments into the dermal layer of the skin (just beneath the surface). The pigment is carefully selected to match your natural skin tone and desired look. The technique used can vary depending on the type of procedure (e.g., microblading for brows, eyeliner tattoos, lip blush tattoos).

Step-by-Step Process:

1. Consultation: The technician will discuss your goals and preferences to determine the best design and color.

2. Mapping & Numbing: The technician will map out the desired shape (e.g., eyebrow arch or lip contour) and apply a numbing cream to ensure comfort.

3. Tattooing: Using a specialized device, the technician gently deposits the pigment into the skin.

4. Healing: After the procedure, the area will go through a healing process, which may involve slight scabbing and fading as the pigment settles.

• To ensure the best results, it’s important to follow pre-care instructions before your appointment.

  • Avoid Blood Thinners: Refrain from using blood thinners (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen, alcohol) for at least 48 hours before the procedure.

  • No Tanning: Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least one week before your procedure.

  • Discontinue Use of Retinoids or Exfoliants: If you’re using products containing retinol or other exfoliating ingredients, stop using them for at least a week prior.

  • Patch Test: If required, your technician may conduct a patch test to ensure you’re not allergic to the pigments.

  • No Waxing or Tinting: Avoid waxing or tinting your eyebrows for a week before the procedure to ensure proper pigment retention.

Proper post-care is crucial to ensure your permanent makeup heals well and lasts longer. Follow these guidelines:

• Keep the Area Clean: Gently cleanse the treated area with a mild, non-alcoholic cleanser, avoiding harsh scrubbing.

• Avoid Water Exposure: For the first 7 days, avoid submerging the treated area in water (e.g., swimming, hot tubs).

• No Makeup: Avoid applying any makeup to the treated area during the healing period.

• Apply Healing Ointment: If instructed, apply the healing ointment provided by your technician to promote recovery.

• Avoid Picking or Scratching: Let any scabbing or flaking naturally fall off to prevent scarring or pigment loss.

• Sun Protection: After healing, always apply a sunscreen with SPF 30+ to the treated areas to avoid fading from sun exposure.

• Follow-up Touch-Up: Schedule a touch-up appointment as recommended (usually 6-8 weeks after the initial procedure) to refine and perfect your results.
