What areas can be done with Permanent make-up?
Read More
- Eyebrows-Intradermal pigmentation mimics the appearance of the hair in the brow line. It creates fullness you can do sport or wipe your forehead without losing your eyebrows. Never use a brow pencil again.
- Eyeliner- From very natural lash enhancements to a more defined line, the choice is yours. Never worry about smudges again. This procedure is popular with both male and female clients. Ophthalmologists recommend this procedure for those who are allergic to conventional makeup and for those who wear contact lenses
- Lip Liner/Colour- Change the size and shape of the lips as well as the colour. This procedure helps prevent lipstick from bleeding into the surrounding skin. Many prefer a very natural look. Others may desire a more dramatic effect. A cleft lip can also be concealed
Additional Procedures:
- Scar Camouflage- The process of camouflaging scars is a simple process of blending natural pigment colours into the discoloured area. The final result dramatically reduces the appearance of scars. This procedure is popular to conceal face-lift scars, stretchmark's, surgical and accidental related scars. Conceal burns or scars, all to help create a natural look.
- Lip Augmentation- This procedure is used to create a visually fuller and healthier lip without any surgical procedure. Balance out the shape of your lips, even out a cleft lip, or you can simply want richer colour lips.
- Mucosal Colouring- This is the art of adding colour to the inner mucosal tissue just below the eye. The colouring of the mucosal tissue adds depth and vibrancy. Not suitable for dry eyes.
- Vitiligo Camouflage- This is a dermatological condition which can vary from patches of skin discoloration and pigment destruction, to one or two white spots on the skin to large areas of depigmentation. Permanent makeup can camouflage this spots to make it less visible.
- Alopecia/Hairline- Alopecia is the lacking of hair where it would usually grow, especially on the head. Permanent makeup can fill in these patches by colouring the skin or imitate hair.
- Colour Corrections- We can do any colour corrections and fix shapes of old permanent makeup procedures. This might take time and may need more than one procedure.
- Areola Reconstruction- After surgery, such as breast augmentation, the areola and nipple area of the breast can become lighter over time or following surgery. Areola reconstruction brings back the natural look for the areola/nipple.
- Tattoos- Small body tattoo
