Frequently Asked Questions about Permanent Make-up
Who Benefits from Permanent Cosmetic Makeup?
EVERYONE, from the young to the elderly, who desires a soft, natural enhancement to their appearance. It is especially beneficial to people who can’t wear other cosmetics due to allergies and skin sensitivities; Active people who want to look their best for activities such as swimming, hiking, biking, tennis, aerobics, and those who don't want to worry about "sweating off" or reapplying cosmetics. Also the vision impaired who have difficulty applying their cosmetics, and others with motor impairments such as arthritis, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, stroke survivors, and those with unsteady hands who cannot apply their own makeup, and busy people who don’t have time to spend on their makeup.
Cosmetic tattooing (permanent cosmetics or make-up) provides a safe and natural-looking alternative to your daily makeup routine. Permanent cosmetics is a process where pigments are tattooed into the dermal layer of the skin, permanently.
Are Permanent Cosmetics Really Permanent?
Permanent cosmetics procedures are considered permanent because the color is implanted into the upper reticular part of the dermal layer of the skin and cannot be washed off. However, as with any tattoo, fading can and often does occur, requiring periodic maintenance, color re-enhancement or color re-freshing. Just like hair color, pigment implanted in the skin may fade with time. Sunscreen does help in retaining color in your permanent makeup procedure.
Once you find a technician, you may wish to make an appointment for a consultation before going forward with a scheduled time for a procedure. At this appointment, your needs and expectations will be discussed. There will be a small amount of paperwork, a discussion of your desires, the ability for permanent cosmetics to improve your life, a review of important related subject matters that include factors associated with proper healing, and a review of pre and post procedure instructions.
Is the procedure painful?
Although everyone's tolerance to minor discomfort is different, most clients agree permanent cosmetic procedures are far more comfortable than anticipated. Every day, improvements are being made in the development of new over-the-counter level anesthetics made specifically for the field of permanent cosmetics. The time required for anesthetics to become effective varies from one manufacturer to another, but up to thirty minutes wait time is typical. After the procedure has begun, additional topical anesthetics may be used during the procedure to ensure your continued comfort.
Strict sanitation and sterilization guidelines are followed in accordance with the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)
SPCP members use single use sterile needles with each application. Pigments are all made from approved compounds, and most are mixed specifically for permanent cosmetic use.
After your procedure, you will be given instruction in aftercare.
You will be given an aftercare package that includes a non-medical type healing ointment. There will most likely be some swelling of the procedural area if eyeliner or a lip procedure was conducted (eyebrow procedures produce very little noticeable swelling.) An example often given with eyeliner is that if you swell after crying or if reacting to environmental allergies, you will probably swell almost exactly that amount during/after the procedure. The day after the eyeliner procedure normally represents the time frame when swelling is most prevalent. Outer healing time varies. Outer healing time represents how the procedure “appears.” Within several days the appearance of the procedure may appear healed, or as a minimum will take on a softer look.
