Permanent Make Up | PMU Studio

Yes, it can fail! Improper techniques by an inexperienced technician can lead to unevenly applied pigment, color stains on the skin and other visible flaws. If permanent makeup is not applied properly, it often looks fake and unnatural; this can be embarrassing for the wearer and difficult or even impossible to reverse. To avoid these types of results, it is best to seek experienced technicians who understand how pigmentation works with your specific skin tone.

Another problem with permanent make up is that the effects don’t last forever; over time, the ink fades because our bodies shed dead skin cells every month. The degree of fading also depends on exactly where your permanent make up was applied: areas that have been exposed to sunlight more often fade faster than others, because ultraviolet radiation breaks down the pigments over time. In addition, aging affects everyone differently; as we age, our faces can change naturally, so previously perfect-looking eyebrows or lip lines become less attractive when still present because their shape no longer matches their new surroundings (e.g., frown lines deepening).

Permanent make up and tattooing both involve the use of needles to inject pigment into the skin, but there are some key differences between the two:

1. Purpose: The primary purpose of permanent makeup is to enhance natural features, such as eyebrows, eyeliner, and lip color, whereas tattooing is primarily used for decorative or symbolic purposes.

2. Technique: The technique used for permanent makeup is more delicate and precise than that used for tattooing. The needles used for permanent makeup are typically finer and the pigment is injected into the upper layer of the skin, whereas tattooing involves deeper penetration of the skin.

3. Pigment: The pigment used for permanent makeup is formulated differently than that used for tattooing. Permanent makeup pigments are designed to fade over time, whereas tattoo pigments are designed to last indefinitely and may contain a mix of organic and inorganic ingredients.

4. Location: Permanent makeup is typically applied to areas of the face, whereas tattoos can be applied to any part of the body.

Overall, while both permanent makeup and tattooing involve the injection of pigment into the skin, they serve different purposes and use different techniques and materials. It’s important to choose a skilled and experienced artist who specializes in the type of service you’re seeking.

Thinning or irregular eyebrows can be a sign of aging, but can also be caused by various medical conditions. Fortunately, there are ways to combat this problem. Permanent makeup is an option that helps restore the natural shape and pigmentation of the eyebrows. In this form of cosmetic tattooing, a specialized device is used to implant pigment into the layer of skin. The results are semi-permanent and last for several years before needing to be updated. Another option is microblading, which does not come recommended, where small needles are used to insert natural-looking hairs into the eyebrows. Both procedures offer a more permanent solution than traditional cosmetics and provide fuller, thicker-looking eyebrows that last longer.

Permanent make up can be a great way to enhance the appearance of your face and body with minimal effort, but it is important to remember that there are drawbacks to applying permanent makeup.

One of the main disadvantages of permanent make up is that the procedure can be painful and not suitable for every skin type. This is especially true with Microblading! Although some people claim that it is painless, most people find that they have to use numbing creams or agents to make the process more comfortable. By the way, we do not experience this with our other treatments then microblading!

Moreover, there is also a risk of discoloration if it is not done properly. That is why it is really important to have it done by a specialist like Kim Loy. If not applied properly, it can also lead to an uneven appearance or even infections. Finally, permanent makeup, although it sounds like an easy fix, can still require regular touch-ups to maintain the desired look. So multiple treatments may be required.

In our studio, however, we are more often told that it stays on longer than expected!

Permanent makeup can seem like an intimidating option to many, especially when it comes to the time required. Contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to spend days of your life doing it – in fact, the process only takes a few hours! It’s cosmetic tattooing without the drawbacks of a real tattoo. Depending on the specific type of permanent makeup you choose (such as eyebrow shading or lip tinting), and the level of customization desired, you can usually expect to spend up to 1-2 hours at your appointment. However, the first appointment is far from the end – usually, after you’ve had permanent makeup applied, you’ll need regular touch-ups to keep your look long-lasting.
