Permanent makeup

Eyebrows

Permanent makeup of the eyebrows is an ideal solution for people who want to have perfectly shaped and filled eyebrows without daily use of a pencil or shadow. This technique allows for the reconstruction or improvement of the natural eyebrow arch, as well as the filling of sparse or uneven areas.

Lips

For those who desire fuller and more defined lips, permanent makeup can be an excellent option. It is possible to add color that emphasizes the natural shape of the lips or even corrects asymmetry. The effect is naturally looking, full lips without the need for daily lipstick application

Eyelids

Permanent makeup of the eyelids can replace daily eyeliner, saving time and providing a perfect shape of the line along the lashes. This is particularly useful for people who have difficulty applying eyeliner or for those who want to emphasize their eyes without daily makeup

The process

The process of applying permanent makeup begins with a consultation with a specialist who will help you choose the appropriate color and shape. Then, with the help of a special device, the pigment is gently introduced into the skin. The procedure can be slightly uncomfortable, but local anesthesia is usually used to minimize discomfort.

Advantages of permanent makeup include:

• Time-saving: No need for daily makeup application.

• Long-lasting effects: The makeup lasts for 1-2 years, with the possibility of touch-ups.

• Feature enhancement: Possibility of correction and highlighting of natural facial features.

Before the procedure:

• A few days before the procedure, use mild soap and water or mild face wash gels.

• Do not use oily creams, only moisturizing ones.

• One week before the procedure, do not use waxing, epilation, depilation, or laser in the areas of pigmentation.

• If you had a cold sore before the procedure, you must apply an antiviral medication 3 days before and 3 days after the procedure.

• Do not take blood-thinning medications and substances on the day of the procedure (aspirin, ibuprofen, benadryl, alcohol, caffeine).

• Advil should be taken at least 2 weeks before.

• You can take calcium and vitamin C, but not vitamin E!

• Herbal teas with melissa are recommended

After the procedure:

• The skin after the procedure may be red and swollen - in this case, cold compresses can be applied.

• On the second day after the procedure, pigmentation may be darker, and after 7-10 days, the color becomes 30% to 50% lighter.

• Then, there may be a feeling of tightening, burning, excessive dryness, and itching. After eyelid pigmentation, temporary dryness of the eyeball may occur, and eyelid swelling may persist for up to 3 days after the procedure.

• To avoid the appearance of “crusts,” care is recommended.

• The complete healing process is completed after about 6-8 weeks.

• Do not scratch or pick at the skin after the procedure.

• Protect the pigmented areas from the sun.

• Do not use the sauna or pool.

• Intensive physical exercise is not recommended immediately after the procedure.

• After the eyelid procedure, a new mascara is necessary! (clean from microorganisms).

• Do not use creams with RETINOL, as it may fade the pigment (around the eyebrows).

• Until complete healing, do not use anti-wrinkle treatments and creams (around the eyebrows)
