Permanent make up

Permanent makeup typically lasts 1–3 years, and the colour gradually fades over time. Laser treatment is the only method that can completely remove permanent makeup.


The level of discomfort during the procedure varies from client to client.


The colour may be affected by different chemicals, such as skin bleaching products and AHA peels, as well as environmental factors such as UV radiation during the 7–10 days following the treatment. Certain medical conditions may also affect the colour.


On the lips, approximately 50% of the pigment may fade during the healing process, while on the eyelids and eyebrows approximately 30% may fade.


The healing/scabbing process lasts approximately 4–5 days.


Permanent makeup can be enhanced 30–50 days after the initial treatment.


The most common areas for permanent makeup are eyebrows, eyeliner and lip liner/lip tinting.

  • The skin in the treatment area is inflamed or you have acne or a rash.
  • Collagen has been injected into the lip to be pigmented within the previous 6 months.

BEFORE PERMANENT MAKEUP / MICROBLADING


  • At least 3 days have passed since tinting the eyebrows or eyelashes.
  • At least 3 days have passed since eyebrow waxing.
  • Avoid coffee for 6–7 hours before the treatment.
  • Do not arrive under the influence of alcohol or recreational drugs.
  • If necessary, you may take a painkiller (e.g. ibuprofen) before the treatment.
  • It is recommended to avoid wearing contact lenses for 1–2 weeks before eyelid pigmentation and for approximately one week afterwards.
  • If you have previously suffered from cold sores, start preventative antiviral medication 3 days before lip permanent makeup and continue the course for 2 days after pigmentation.


AFTER PERMANENT MAKEUP / MICROBLADING


It is extremely important that the client follows the aftercare instructions carefully. This helps prevent possible infections and ensures that the final colour result develops as intended.

  • The pigmentation will appear darker for approximately one week. After this, excess pigment will flake away together with dead skin cells. Do not scratch, rub or remove the flaking skin/scabs yourself.
  • Clean the pigmented area with water only and, after cleansing, apply a thin layer of the recommended aftercare cream designed for permanent makeup. The cream can be used while the flaking/scabbing is present.
  • Avoid using greasy creams, skincare products, mascara and lipstick on the treated areas for approximately one week.
  • Avoid direct sunlight and solarium for 8–10 days, as UV radiation may alter the colour.
  • Avoid strenuous exercise and excessive sweating for 4–5 days.
  • To prevent inflammation/infection, avoid sauna for 28 days and swimming for 14 days.
  • Eyelash extensions can be applied or refilled one month after pigmentation.
  • Eyelashes and eyebrows can be tinted two weeks after pigmentation.
  • Soothing eye drops can be used if the eyes become irritated.
  • Swelling may occur during the first few days after eyeliner pigmentation. A cold compress (dry, not wet) can be used to reduce swelling.
  • Lip pigmentation may trigger a cold sore outbreak. If symptoms appear, you can use Zovirax or a similar product.
  • Do not donate blood for four months after micropigmentation.
