of natural pigments into the dermal layer of the skin. This state of the art
technique is medically proven and specifically designed to be completely safe.

enhancements such as eyebrows, eyeliner and lip liner.
Cosmetic procedure includes Vitaligo, stretch marks, scar camouflage, areola
restoration and hairline enhancement.
What is permanent
make-up made of?
Permanent make-up consists of fine particles of iron oxide based pigment
compounds which are placed precisely within the middle skin layer to provide
color. The most advanced pigments are used which are fully dermatologist approved. The
pigments are individually mixed to provide customized results.
Is implantation
of pigment safe?
Yes - The pigment used is made from iron oxide - a safe, non-reactive
substance approved for use by dermatologists. The procedure does
not harm the skin or damage existing hair.
How many treatments
are required?
Typically 2 treatment sessions are required and these are placed one or more
weeks apart. Truly professional artistic implantation takes time and several
steps to achieve the final results. Pigments are mixed to closely match the
natural skin tone or hair color. Darker color can always be increased during
subsequent visits. The creation of a natural hair pattern such as in the
eyebrows requires the expertise of an experienced pigment specialist.
What happens after
treatment?
The treated area should be kept clean but not scrubbed. Excess pigment on the
skin surface will be shed without disturbing the implanted pigment. The skin
returns to normal the next day.
Is the procedure
painful?
There is very mild discomfort during the treatment session, which can be easily
prevented with the application of topical and/or local anesthesia. The
procedure is usually done in the office setting often with the use of
magnification to provide precise placement of the pigment.
Is permanent make-up
harmful?
No, it is exceptionally safe when performed by a qualified pigment specialist.
Strong colors are usually avoided except in special circumstances as they often
go out of style quickly. Remember that this is an extended wear permanent
procedure, which is designed to look natural. It is intended to enhance the
lash lines, brows and lips without replacing the ability to use make-up.
