Permanent Makeup Cosmetics
We are now offering Permanent makeup, also known as cosmetic tattooing or micropigmentation, a cosmetic procedure that uses tattooing techniques to apply pigment into the skin, creating a long-lasting enhancement of facial features. It is really semi-permanent and is placed closer to the surface of skin not as deep as a regular tattoo with thin fine needles, it fades gently over time as the skin naturally renews itself.
Pricing
Each service costs $350 and includes two appointments, an initial and a touch up. Each initial appointment is expected to be a 3-4 hour session and a 3 hour session for the follow up appointment.
What You Should Know About PMU
Permanent makeup is good to save time, fix uneven features, or to bring back color lost due to age or scarring. Most just want something that looks clean, natural, and doesn't need touch-ups every few hours. But, you can be bold if you want.
PMU lasts around 1 to 2 years on the lips, 3 to 5 years on the brows and 5 to 7 years on the eyeliner. Life also depends on the use of sunscreen and your skin type (oily tends to fade faster).
Most people come back for touch-ups every year or two. Honestly, this is nice as your style shifts, your makeup can evolve and you may not want the same look forever.
We will start with a consultation and spend a great deal of time mapping your eyebrows or lips. This will show you the shape of them using your bone structure and natural symmetry. If doing lip blushing bring your favorite shade of lipstick and we will match the pigment to your color.
We will numb the area. Most people say it feels like a scratch or sting, a mild to medium pain. Some are so relaxed they can fall asleep mid-treatment.
You will LOVE your permanent make-up and wish you gotten it sooner!
