Does permanent makeup actually last forever?

Despite the name, permanent makeup is semi-permanent. Results typically last 1-3 years depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and the area treated. Oilier skin and sun exposure can cause faster fading. Annual color refreshes keep your look current.

Is the procedure painful?

We apply a professional-grade topical numbing cream before and during your procedure to maximize comfort. Most clients describe the sensation as light scratching or tickling. Sensitivity varies by area — eyeliner tends to be the most sensitive, while brows and lips are generally very comfortable.

How do I prepare for my appointment?

Avoid blood thinners (aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil) for 48 hours before your appointment. Do not consume alcohol 24 hours prior. Come with clean skin — no makeup on the treatment area. Avoid sun exposure, retinol, and chemical peels for 2 weeks beforehand.

What is the healing process like?

Days 1-3: Color appears 30-50% darker — completely normal. Days 3-7: Light flaking as the skin heals — do not pick. Days 7-14: Color softens and settles to its true shade. Full healing takes 4-6 weeks.

Can I get PMU if I have existing tattooed brows or eyeliner?

Yes, with a consultation. We evaluate existing work to determine if a correction or enhancement is possible. Faded, warm-toned, or misshapen prior work can often be improved or covered. In some cases, lightening treatments may be recommended first.
