Semi Permanent Make-Up - Your Questions Answered.
What is semi-permanent make-up?
It is an exciting new procedure, in which carefully applied permanent pigment is placed into the dermal layer of the skin. The pigment is made of natural
iron oxide. It is hypo-allergenic and there are no fragrances, emollients or other ingredients added.
Your preferred colour is implanted into a lower layer of the skin, where it remains for up to 3 years. The pigments I use are non-reactive and virtually limitless in the choice of colour available.
This make-up is perfectly safe and has been approved by doctors and written favourably about by many respected beauty writers.
What type of procedures do I offer?
What type of people have it done?
Professional or career women who have little time for applying make-up every day. Those with allergies to conventional cosmetics. Women or men with hair loss due to alopecia or who just have very sparse hair growth.
Athletic women and those with oily skin who shed make-up easily
Entertainers, actresses and models. Women with vision problems & contact lens wearers. In fact any woman who wants to look her best at all times
with very little effort on her part.
How would I know which colour to choose?
Beginning with a variety of basic pigment shades, virtually any colour can be mixed to compliment your natural skin tones. We work with you, discussing your preferences and making suggestions to help perfect your look, custom designing your semi-permanent make-up with colours that suit you best.
Is it expensive?
Not if you look at the long-term cost and effect. It costs more than a year’s cosmetics bill, but is little compared to 2 – 3 years of daily make-up expenses. Also, it doesn’t run or wash off and it’s a great time saver. It’s worth every penny to make the most of your natural beauty. It’s what we’ve all been waiting for!
How long will it last?
The pigment will fade over time although it may not disappear forever, 2-3 years is normal, although there is no guarantee, as each individual will react differently, and lifestyle plays a major role. Contributory factors include, sun exposure, speed of skin cell regeneration and the choice of colour. A visit to the salon is recommended every 12-18 months to keep your eyebrows looking perfect. Eyeliner and lip liner normally last much longer.
Does it hurt?
There is usually minimal discomfort. We use topical anaesthetics to greatly reduce discomfort and promote relaxation. Some clients feel absolutely nothing except a prickly sensation.
How long does it take to heal?
Between 4 and 7 days – depending on the procedure that you have had done.
