FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
ABOUT PERMANENT MAKE-UP


WHAT IS PERMANENT MAKE-UP?
Permanent make-up (a.k.a. micro-pigmentation, micro pigmentation, or micro pigment implantation) is a state-of-the-art process where natural pigments are placed just under the surface of the skin. These hypoallergenic pigments are specifically designed for facial applications.

IS PERMANENT MAKE-UP A TATTOO?
No, definitely not!

WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE?
Permanent make-up is applied by various machines and methods including; rotary machines, the pen and the non-machine or hand method. Using a small, sterile, micro-prong needle, pigment is placed into the dermal layer of skin.

DOES THE PROCEDURE HURT?
Topical anesthetics are used to numb the area. Although you may experience some minor discomfort, most people describe a gentle scrub, mild stimulation, or mild plucking sensation. You may experience some minor discomfort. This will vary according to the individual and the skill of the technician performing the procedure.

IS IT SAFE?
Yes! A skin patch-test is performed with each new client for an allergic reaction. Disposable sterile needles and surgical gloves are used for each procedure. Allergic reactions to permanent make-up are extremely rare.

HOW LONG DOES EACH PROCEDURE TAKE?
The procedure will generally take 1.5 - 2.5 hours. Follow up procedures usually do not require as much time as the first initial application. However, times vary according to the individual's sensitivity, density, elasticity and condition of the skin.


HOW MANY APPOINTMENTS WILL BE NECESSARY?
A checkup will be scheduled within two months of the initial application. Sometimes this may be required to perfect the color, line, shadow, or design.

HOW PERMANENT IS PERMANENT MAKE-UP?
Technically, permanent make-up is considered permanent because it can not be washed off. However, a variety of factors may influence the longevity. Usually make-up will last from 3-5 years for darker skin, and 7-10 years on lighter skin. For some individuals these procedures are indeed permanent. Fading can and often does occur, requiring touchup maintenance.

WILL SUN TANNING AFFECT MY MAKE-UP?
Exposure to ultraviolet from the sun or tanning booths are factors that may have an affect. Sun block on eyebrows, sunglasses for eyeliner, and SPF on lips will greatly prolong the effective life of your make-up

WHAT ELSE SHOULD I KNOW?
Excessively dry skin, smoking, and various drugs can have an affect on the appearance of your make-up. Alpha-hydroxyl, retin-a, and glycolic acid must be kept away from treated areas. If you use any of these products you may require additional maintenance in years to come.

IS THERE AN ADJUSTMENT PERIOD?
Some of our clients have come in for permanent eye liner, eyebrows, or lip lines and have gone into work that same afternoon.

WHAT IF IT'S TOO DARK OR NOT DARK ENOUGH?
Permanent make-up colors usually appear darker for the first few days, but then softens to natual look in no time. Pigment colors can be dramatic OR soft and natural looking. If you want a different look you can darken the make-up with additional applications, OR... lighten -- the choice is yours.
