Is It Painful?

Permanent make-up procedures are of a skin invasive nature (as they are a form of tattoo) and therefore you may experience some discomfort. This may vary according to each individual’s pain threshold and the skills of the technician performing the service.
HOWEVER
 keep in mind that there are different methods available to help with pain management, including various topical anesthetics ointments as well as desensitizing products.

Is Permanent Make-up Really Permanent?

Technically, Permanent Make-up 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 does occur, requiring periodic maintenance.
REMEMBER:
 Although the procedure is considered permanent, the procedures do have flexibility in changing color and shape to some extent, depending on each individual’s skin.
*Colors will appear darker immediately following the procedure but will soften and lighten during the healing process, which takes approximately a week or longer depending on the individual.
*Color on the skin may change somewhat during the healing process as well, as it combines with the individual’s skin tone.
