Frequently Asked Questions About Permanent Makeup

1. What is permanent makeup?

Permanent makeup (also known as micropigmentation or cosmetic tattooing) is a cosmetic technique that uses tattoo-like pigments to simulate the appearance of makeup such as eyebrow pencil, eyeliner, lip color, and other cosmetic enhancements. The pigments are implanted into the upper layers of the skin, giving a long-lasting effect that typically lasts between 1 to 3 years.

2. Is permanent makeup safe?

Yes, when performed by a certified and experienced professional, permanent makeup is safe. All materials used in the procedure are single-use, sterile, and specific to each client. They are disposed of after each use to ensure maximum hygiene and safety.

3. Does permanent makeup hurt?

For your comfort, a high-grade local anesthetic cream is applied before and throughout the procedure. Most clients feel nothing or describe a mild “tweezers” sensation. The procedure is generally well-tolerated and many clients even fall asleep during the session.

4. How long does permanent makeup last?

The longevity of permanent makeup varies depending on the procedure and individual skin type. Typically: Eyebrow microblading lasts 1-2 years, permanent eyeliner lasts approximately 18 months, permanent lip color lasts 1-3 years. Touch-up sessions every 12-18 months are recommended to maintain the desired look.

5. What is the healing process like after permanent makeup?

After the procedure, the treated area may appear slightly darker and more intense for the first few days. In the first week, the area will begin to crust and peel – this is completely normal. The final color emerges after about 4-6 weeks. During healing, it is important to avoid sweating, getting the area wet, and sun exposure.

6. Can I have permanent makeup if I have allergies to cosmetic products?

Yes! One of the main advantages of permanent makeup is that it eliminates the need for daily cosmetic product use, which is especially beneficial for those with allergies or sensitivities to conventional makeup products. Please inform us of any known allergies during your consultation.

7. I had permanent makeup done elsewhere and I'm not satisfied. Can it be corrected?

Yes, in many cases corrections are possible. However, please send us photos of your eyebrows or the treated area without makeup beforehand so we can assess the situation. If your existing permanent makeup is faded, light, or the shape is not aesthetically pleasing, corrections can often be made.

8. How should I prepare for my permanent makeup appointment?

Avoid alcohol, blood thinners, and caffeine 24 hours before your appointment. Do not take aspirin or ibuprofen. Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least 2 weeks prior. Come to your appointment without makeup on the treatment area. If you have any medical conditions or are pregnant, please consult your doctor before booking.

9. Is there a touch-up session included?

Yes, we offer a complimentary 1-month follow-up check. The second session (touch-up) typically occurs 4-6 weeks after the initial procedure. This session is used to perfect the results and make any desired adjustments.

10. Is permanent makeup suitable for men?

Absolutely! Permanent makeup is gender-neutral and is becoming increasingly popular among men, particularly for eyebrow design. Men can benefit from natural-looking, well-groomed eyebrows without the need for daily maintenance.
