Permanent Make-up (Permanent Cosmetics) Every day millions of women, and even some men, spend a portion of their dressing routine applying makeup, whether it's to enhance their eyes or lips or apply a fading brow. Unfortunately, most make-up wears off, smudges, gets transferred elsewhere or is just plain applied poorly to begin with. Permanent cosmetics are your solution to overcoming all of these scenarios. WHAT IS PERMANENT COSMETICS? Permanent Cosmetics, also known as intradermal pigmentation, is a method of applying micro insertions of natural pigments into the dermal layer of the skin. Intradermal pigmentation is used for a variety of permanent cosmetic enhancements such as permanent eyebrows, eye liner and lip liner/color. Other procedures include vitiligo, stretch mark and scar camouflage, nipple areola restoration, hairline enhancement and more. IS PERMANENT COSMETICS RIGHT FOR ME? Men as well as women are good candidates for permanent cosmetics. The following may benefit: busy people with little time to apply makeup, people with allergies to conventional makeup, people who are physically incapable of applying makeup, athletes who tend to shed makeup easily, burn survivors and people with flaws in their skin, and people with asymmetrical facial features. WHAT CAN I EXPECT RIGHT AFTER TREATMENT? Topical anesthetics are used to minimize discomfort during the procedure. There will be slight swelling and redness in the skin, which will subside quickly. Patients will be given specific post-treatment instructions, based on the area(s) of treatment. You may resume normal activities immediately after the procedure. WHAT CAN I EXPECT OVER TIME? Complete healing takes 1-6 weeks while the pigmentation matures and reaches its final color. |
