About Permanent Makeup
How to check a technician before booking
Ask for a portfolio of healed results, not just fresh photos. Healed photos should be taken 6 to 8 weeks after the session. Check that the studio uses single use needles opened in front of you. Pigment bottles should have a batch number and expiry date. Training certificates should name the specific technique.
Why a touch up is almost always needed
Skin never holds pigment evenly on the first pass, so almost every artist schedules a touch up at 6 weeks to 8 weeks. At this visit, gaps are filled, shape is refined, and the tone is corrected. Skipping this step often leads to patchy or uneven final results.
Pain level and numbing options
Most clients describe the feeling as a scratchy vibration rather than sharp pain. A topical anaesthetic cream is applied 15 to 30 minutes before needling. Some areas, like the lips, are more sensitive and may need a second application. Numbing does not remove all feeling. Pain tolerance varies widely between people.
What permanent makeup really does
Permanent makeup places coloured pigment into the upper layer of the skin using a fine needle. It mimics hair strokes, eyeliner, or a lip tint. The pigment sits about 1 mm to 2 mm below the surface and fades gradually over time, so the look is semi-long-term, not truly permanent.
Common problems and how to avoid them
Bad colour, such as grey or orange tones, comes from using the wrong pigment for your skin tone. Uneven shape happens when mapping is rushed. Migration, where pigment spreads under the skin, follows too-deep needle work. Choose slow, measured artists who show healed results.
What makes the price change
Price varies by area, technique, and technician experience. Microblading for brows often sits in a mid range, while full lip shading with contour costs more. A second session for colour boost is cheaper than the first. Mobile or home studio work may add a travel fee. Cheap prices usually mean less training.
Healing time and what looks normal
Skin closes in about 7 days, but full healing takes 4 weeks to 6 weeks. During week 1 the colour looks 30 to 50 percent darker than expected. Mild flaking and itching are normal. If you see heavy swelling, hot redness, or pus, contact a doctor quickly.
How long a first appointment takes
Plan for 2 to 3 hours for the first visit. About 20 to 30 minutes is spent on shape mapping and pigment choice. The actual needling lasts 45 to 90 minutes depending on the area. Brows usually take less time than full lip shading. Rushing the mapping step is a common cause of regret.
Aftercare that protects the result
Keep the area dry for the first 24 hours, then wash gently with mild soap. Apply the aftercare balm the technician provides, usually 2 to 3 times daily for 7 to 10 days. Avoid sun, pools, and saunas for 2 weeks. Do not pick scabs. Use SPF 50 on the area daily once healed to slow fading.
How to check a technician before booking
Ask to see healed photos taken 6 weeks after the session, not just day 1 results. Check that the studio follows local health rules and that the artist has a bloodborne pathogen certificate. A good technician will also refuse to work on active skin issues near the area.
