What Is Permanent Make up?
The Full Story
Permanent makeup, also known as micro pigmentation, and cosmetic tattooing is a cosmetic technique which involves permanent pigmentation of the dermis. It’s achieved by inserting coloured natural pigments into the dermal layer of the skin.. The procedure uses a very fine needle that makes hundreds of tiny perforations per minute. It produces articulate designs that resemble makeup. This procedure is most commonly done on lips, eyelids and eyebrows.

Cosmetic tattooing can take anywhere between 30 to 120 minutes depending on its complexity. An anesthetic to numb the area being tattooed. At first, the colour will appear brighter or darker, but over time, it will fade. The area will be swollen within 2-5 days and crust will form before healing just like a normal tattoo.
Permanent makeup has been commonly used as a cosmetic enhancement. It’s used as a cover-up for stretch marks, birthmarks, age spots, and uneven discolourations.
