PERMANENT MAKEUP
Have you ever asked yourself these questions and couldn’t find the right answer?
Do you dream about wearing make-up that will stay – whatever the weather?
Do you find cosmetics fiddly and time consuming, and wish you could jump out of bed with perfect features?
If answer is YES, then a semi-permanent makeup treatment can help to transform your life and daily beauty regime.
Permanent makeup, or micro-pigmentation, is a revolutionary beauty treatment used to enhance eyes, brows and lips to give a natural finish that imitates perfectly applied makeup.
The effect is achieved by infusing hypo-allergenic pigments into the dermal layer (upper layer) of the skin. The result can be as subtile or dramatic as you wish, to give along lasting look that enhances your natural beauty.
It will last up to 3-5 years (depending on your body), won't wipe off, and you will look beautiful all day, every day. Though, colour boosts are recommended!
We hope you now have an insight into how micro-pigmentation can benefit you. The next step is to call or email to arrange a consultation and see the results for yourself.
Most procedures are done after applying an anaesthetic to the skin.
* Occasionally a second application of pigment is needed in order to achieve the desired result.
Control treatment will be required, but not sooner than 4-6 weeks after the initial procedure.*
BROWS
Paying close attention to face shape and hair colour, we will create your new brows through simulation of natural brow hairs, fill them out them or totally create new ones.
Semi-permanent makeup solution can save you lots of time in the morning if you are used to using eyebrow pencils or powder, and guess what?
You can go swimming, play sports and wipe your face without the embarrassment of losing your brows!
LIPS
This procedure allows you to enhance your lips by adjusting the colour, shape and even size slightly, by redefining your cupids bow for example.
You will no longer have to worry about reapplying lipstick after kissing or eating- they will stay beautiful whatever the situation.
Many people decide to go with a soft pink to keep their look natural, but others desire a more dramatic look and both are equally possible!
EYELINER
A subtle, natural look, mimicking thousands of tiny eyelashes with the implantation of pigments in the lash line is popular with both male and female clients.
Additional shadowing of colour can be added for a soft natural liner or a more bold, definite line can be achieved.
Ophthalmologists recommend micro-pigmentation procedures for those who are allergic to conventional makeup and for those wearing contact lenses.
GENERAL AFTERCARE APPLIES FOR ALL TREATMENTS
​
Proper care following your enhancement is necessary to achieve the best results. Please review the following instructions and refer to them as necessary. If during the healing process you have any questions or concerns do not hesitate to contact us.
AVOID FOR 2 WEEKS:
​
Do not expose your enhancement to direct sun, tanning treatments, Jacuzzis, saunas, salt water, chlorinated pools and direct shower spray.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
​
-
Remember, your selected colour will be stronger and more sharply defined for 10 to 14 days after application but as the healing process occurs the colour will soften and lighten.
-
Some itching is normal. DO NOT PICK, PEEL OR RUB your enhancement as the colour may heal unevenly and you could risk infection, which in turn could lead to scarring. Allow the colour to flake away by itself.
-
No make-up should be applied close to your enhancement for at least 3 days.
-
The approximate healing period is 14 days, however healing can be prolonged if your immune system is compromised, if you are generally stressed and by poor diet.
-
Keep in mind that in many cases, some unevenness of colour is to be expected. This is the purpose of the control visit allowing us to fine tune your enhancement. This is NOT included in the initial cost, however if you do not attend your scheduled control appointment you will be charged for any further treatment. Cancellation notice is always 48 hours.
LONG -TERM CARE
​
Use a good sunscreen. Sun exposure will fade your micro-pigmentation enhancement.
If you are planning a chemical peel or IPL on your face (eyebrows), eye surgery (eyeliner), laser procedure or an MRI scan, please inform the technician of your micro-pigmentation enhancement.
Please inform the National Blood Service if you donate blood, as you may not be eligible to give blood for 4 months post application.
