WHO BENEFITS FROM PERMANENT MAKEUP?
EVERYONE! from the young to the elderly, who desires
a soft, natural enhancement to their appearance. It
is especially beneficial to people who can’t
wear other cosmetics due to allergies and skin sensitivities;
Active people who want to look their best for activities
such as swimming, hiking, biking, tennis, aerobics,
and those who don't want to worry about "sweating
off" or reapplying cosmetics. Also the vision
impaired who have difficulty applying their cosmetics,
and others with motor impairments such as arthritis,
Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, stroke
survivors, and those with unsteady hands who cannot
apply their own makeup, and busy people who don’t
have time to spend on their makeup.
Permanent make up is done with a specialized gamma-sterilized
pigment that is implanted into the reticular layer
of the dermis. The procedure can take up to 3 appointments
& each appointment can take anywhere from 2 -
6 hours. Plus, all equipment used is disposable so
each time you have a procedure done new parts are
used.
ARE PERMANENT COSMETICS REALLY PERMANENT?
Technically, permanent cosmetics procedures are considered
permanent because the color is implanted into the
upper reticular part of 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, color re-enhancement or color refreshing.
Just like hair color, furniture that may be located
near a window, or even house paint, pigment implanted
in the skin may fade with time. It is important to
consider this and all aspects of the procedure when
considering a permanent cosmetic procedure
WHAT TYPES OF PERMANENT COSMETIC PROCEDURES

or dramatic depending on what you are looking for.

- Eyebrow Enhancement
