Permanent Cosmetics

WHAT EXACTLY IS PERMANENT COSMETIC MAKEUP?

Permanent cosmetic makeup is a state of the art form of cosmetic tattooing. The specialized techniques used for permanent cosmetics are often referred to as "micropigmentation", "micropigment implantation" or "dermagraphics".

  • HOW ARE PERMANENT COSMETIC PROCEDURES DONE?

    Permanent cosmetics procedures are performed using various machines and methods, including the traditional (or specialized) tattoo or coil machines, the pen or rotary machine and the non-machine or hand method.

    These procedures are a process which includes the initial consultation, a “scratch test”, initial application of pigment, and usually one or two follow up visits for adjusting the shape and color or density of the pigment.

  • WHO BENEFITS FROM PERMANENT COSMETIC MAKEUP?

    EVERYONE ~ from the young to the elderly, who desires a soft and natural enhancement to their appearance.

    POST SURGICAL/INJURY ~ those seeking reconstruction of areolas after surgery; camouflage of scars from burns, surgery, accidents or injuries; redefinition of facial features.

     

    ALOPECIA areata or universalis sufferers who have lost some or all of their facial hair, including eyebrows and/or eyelashes.

    CHEMOTHERAPY recipients with full or partial hair loss.

     

    VITILIGO sufferers who may have areas of skin which have lost their pigment.

     

    PHYSICALLY ACTIVE people who want to look their best throughout activities such as swimming, hiking, biking, tennis, aerobics, and don't want to worry about "sweating off" or reapplying cosmetics.

     

    ALLERGIES and SENSITIVE SKIN-these people often can't wear other cosmetics.

     

    VISION IMPAIRED people who have difficulty applying their cosmetics.

     

    MOTOR IMPAIRED, including arthritics, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, stroke survivors, and those with unsteady hands who cannot apply their own makeup.

     

    MEN who want feature enhancement that looks natural and not "made up".

     

    WOMEN who want to look their best all the time, even when they wake up.

     

    MOTHERS and other busy professionals who DON'T HAVE TIME for makeup.

  • ARE PERMANENT COSMETICS REALLY PERMANENT?

    Technically, permanent cosmetics procedures are considered permanent because the color is implanted into the dermal layer of the skin and cannot be washed off. However, as with any tattoo, fading can and often does occur, requiring periodic maintenance.

  • HOW MUCH DOES PERMANENT COSMETIC MAKEUP COST?

    The average cost per procedure varies somewhat and start at about $250.  You will receive an accurate quote for the work you would like performed during your consultation.

  • HOW LONG DOES EACH PROCEDURE TAKE?

    The initial procedure will generally take approximately 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours. Follow up procedures usually do not require as much time as the initial procedure.

  • IS IT PAINFUL?

    Permanent cosmetics procedures are of a skin invasive nature (as they are a form of cosmetic tattoo) and therefore you may experience some discomfort. This may vary according to each individual's pain threshold.  HOWEVER, keep in mind that there are different methods available to help with pain management.  Our technician will discuss these options with you during your initial, free consultation.

  • IS IT SAFE?

    Micropigmentation is a skin invasive procedure. Our technician strictly adheres to standards set by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for your safety and benefit.
