PERMANENT MAKEUP
Permanent makeup (PMU), also known as micropigmentation, is a cosmetic tattooing technique that enhances facial features by implanting pigment into the skin. It is used to create long-lasting eyebrows, eyeliner, lip color, and even camouflage scars or restore areolas after surgery.
How It Works
- Consultation – A technician evaluates skin tone, facial features, and desired shape/color.
- Pigment Selection – Custom pigments are mixed to match natural skin tones.
- Application Process – A specialized machine or manual microblade deposits pigment into the skin’s dermal layer.
- Healing & Touch-Ups – Initial healing takes 5-10 days, with a follow-up session after 4-8 weeks to perfect the results.
Common Types of Permanent Makeup
- Microblading (Eyebrows) – Uses fine strokes to mimic natural brow hairs.
- Ombre Powder Brows – A softer, shaded effect that mimics filled-in brows.
- Eyeliner Tattoo – Enhances lash line with a thin or bold liner.
- Lip Blush Tattoo – Adds natural-looking tint to lips for a fuller, even tone.
- Scalp Micropigmentation – Creates the appearance of hair follicles for hair loss.
- Areola Restoration – Reconstructs the appearance of areolas post-surgery.
- Scar Camouflage – Blends pigment into scars or discoloration.
Benefits
- Saves Time – No need for daily makeup application.
- Waterproof & Smudge-Proof – Stays intact regardless of sweat or water exposure.
- Enhances Natural Features – Great for sparse brows, pale lips, or lash enhancement.
- Long-Lasting – Lasts 1-5 years, depending on skin type and pigment used.
