What is PMU?
Permanent Makeup is also known as Semi-Permanent Makeup, Facial Tattooing, Micropigmentation – is a form of cosmetic tattooing where tiny particles of the pigment are implanted into the papillary layer of the skin which allows having long-lasting eyebrows! Longevity depends on many factors including age, skin type, immune system, habits etc.
How long is the appointment?
Two hours on average. During your appointment we consult with you the entire time ensuring we are on the same page. Much of the time is spent measuring and drawing on your symmetrical set of brows and agreeing on your perfect shape and color. The actual procedure itself takes 30min to a hour. The touch up appointment will take about an hour .
Does it hurt?
We do all that we can to ensure that the process is as comfortable as possible. When the microblading begins some clients may feel a slight discomfort. During the procedure a liquid aesthetic is applied to the area to minimize discomfort. Its relatively pain free for most. (please note if you have your appointment during your menstrual cycle the pain level could be intensified).
is PMU just like a real body tattoo?
No. Tattoo pigment is placed into the deep layers of the skin and almost always remains in them, unlike the Permanent Makeup, which eventually fades. The difference lays in the depth of implanted pigment and the sort of materials and equipment used.
Are my eyebrow hair going to be shaved during the procedure?
Absolutely not! Moreover, it is desirable to come to the procedure with the maximum eyebrow hairs. Only those hairs that do not fit into the desired shape of your Permanent Makeup eyebrows will be removed.
Can i get this treatment if pregnant/breast feeding ?
As a precaution to avoid any complications, we do not perform PMU on pregnant or breast feeding women .
Can i exercise after treatment?
You must avoid working out for 7 days following your appointment. Light exercise is allowed (minimal sweating).
