Permanent Make-up is a procedure that implants pigment into the dermal layer of the skin to create long lasting eyebrows, eyeliners and lip enhancements.  Treatment is in accordance to strict health and safety protocols using single use sterile needle cartridges.

 

Semi-Permanent Make-up or Permanent Make-up?

These two representations of the treatment are both correct; ‘however’, Pigment (colour) is created by refined particles (sub molecules) which are implanted into the skin to the depth of roughly 0.5mm. 

From approximately 12 to 18 months post treatment the pigment colour in your skin will start to fade.  Fading occurs from day to day exposure of UVA which bleaches the pigment.  We experience UVA exposure every day form natural sunlight (summer or winter), lap top screens, television etc.    With this loss of colour in the skin, the treatment gained the term “Semi”-Permanent Make-up.

However, although the colour has faded in the skin, the molecules that carried the colour are still in the skin hence the term “Permanent”. The molecules do no harm and you would never know that they are there.
