How is the procedure performed?

Permanent makeup is a process that usually takes on average two or three applications to complete. A good permanent makeup artist will always add more color or thickness, if needed, on a follow up appointment within 4 to 6 weeks, which ensures perfection and longevity. Prospective clients are first led through a thorough consultation to determine if they are a good candidate. Once the desired color and shape is obtained in a run-through with the removable pigments, the area gets marked and cleansed, and a topical anesthetic is applied for your comfort. The pigment is then precisely deposited at approximately .08mm below the surface. The gravity of the pigment particles then brings it lower into the dermis, making it permanent without unnecessarily traumatizing the deeper layers of the skin. This also means a shorter application time since the color goes in quicker and with longer staying power. Depending on the area and how much work is needed, a typical procedure itself takes only about 20 to 30 minutes. A complimentary makeup consultation will give you a good idea of what your desired procedure will look like on you.
