Permanent Makeup Treatments: Common Questions and Answers

What is permanent makeup?

Permanent makeup, also known as cosmetic tattooing or micropigmentation, is a technique where pigment is implanted into the skin to enhance features like eyebrows, eyeliner, and lips. It provides a long-lasting, natural look and minimizes the need for daily makeup application.

Permanent makeup typically lasts between 1 to 3 years, depending on the procedure, skin type, and lifestyle factors such as sun exposure and skincare routine. Touch-ups are often recommended every 12 to 18 months to maintain the look.

Most people describe the sensation as mild discomfort , pain tolerance varies from person to person.

The initial session usually takes 2 hours, including consultation, mapping the design, and applying the pigment. Follow-up appointments for touch-ups generally take about 1 hour.

Recovery time is typically 7 to 10 days for most procedures. During this time, the treated area may scab, flake, or appear darker than the final result. Complete healing of the skin can take up to 6 weeks.

After treatment, avoid:

  • ⁠Direct sunlight or tanning
  • Swimming pools, saunas, and hot tubs
  • ⁠Picking or scratching the treated area
  • Makeup or skincare products on the treated area for the first week
  • ⁠Strenuous exercise that causes excessive sweating.
