Permanent Cosmetics
What are Permanent Cosmetics?
Also called permanent makeup and cosmetic tattooing, it is the placement of pigment just beneath the epidermis of the skin. Although the effects of aging, surgeries and sun exposure may alter the pigment's apperance over time, it is permanent. For this reason "refresher" appointments may be appropriate every few years to keep your makeup looking its best.
Are permanent cosmetics right for you?
If you have sparse eyebrows, unever and pale lips, or wear eyeliner everyday, this may be for you.
What to Expect?
It is important to discuss you lifestyle and expectations with your technician prior to the procedure. Immediately following application: The procedures result in visible redness and some swelling. The application of ice to the area can help reduce these symptoms. Up to one week after application: Most swelling and tenderness will be gone. There will be peeling of the skin, and sloughing off of the pigment trapped in the epidermis. As the skin heals, the color will continue to change for the next few weeks. Two months following application: Healing is complete. The application of sunscreen and good sun sense will help preserve your makeup for years to come.
Does it hurt?
Although everyone's pain sensitivity varies, the application of permanent makeup involves minor discomfort when topical anesthetics are used during the application.
Is the procedure safe?
Your safety and comfort are our highest concern. Permanent cosmetics are applied using the highest sanitation and sterilization standards available. Sterile, single use needles are used with every client. Your artist is gloved at all times.
Are the pigments safe?
Pigments used in permanent cosmetics have an extensive record of safety. Used in both medical and artistic fields for over 20 years, their safety is undisputed. Be sure to ask the professional if the pigments are M.R.A. safe, or non-ionoxide.
How long does a procedure take?
Although the length of the procedures may vary, most procedures generally take less than 1 hour.
