About Permanent Makeup
What permanent makeup actually does
Permanent makeup places coloured pigments into the upper layers of the skin using a fine needle. It is used for eyebrows, eyeliner, and lip colour. The pigment sits about 1 to 2 mm below the surface. Results look like makeup but stay on through showering and sleep. It fades gradually rather than washing off.
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.
How long results actually last
Eyebrows last 12 to 24 months on average before needing a refresh. Eyeliner can last 2 to 5 years. Lips fade faster, usually within 1 to 3 years. Sun exposure, skin type, and pigment colour all change the timeline. Oily skin breaks down pigment faster than dry skin. Plan repeat sessions as maintenance.
Health and safety questions to ask
Ask if pigments are EU or FDA approved for cosmetic use. Confirm autoclave sterilisation for reusable tools and disposable covers for machine parts. A patch test 24 to 48 hours before the appointment checks for allergic reactions. People on blood thinners, pregnant, or with active skin conditions should wait.
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.
Pain level and numbing options
Most people describe the feeling as a light scratch rather than real pain. Numbing cream with lidocaine is applied 20 minutes before the work starts and is reapplied during the session. Some zones, like the lips, feel sharper, but a second layer of numbing cream usually helps.
How long results actually last
Eyebrows usually look good for 12 months to 24 months before needing a colour refresh. Lips tend to fade faster, often within 12 months, because of cell turnover in that area. Lifestyle, sun exposure, and skin type change the timeline for each person.
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.
Main techniques you will see offered
For eyebrows, the common methods are microblading, powder brows, and combo brows. Microblading uses hair-like cuts; powder brows use small dots of pigment. Eyeliner can be a thin lash line or a wider shaded band. Lips can be tinted only or outlined and filled. Each technique uses different needle shapes and pressure.
Healing time and what looks normal
Colour looks about 30 to 50 percent darker right after the session. Days 2 to 4 may show mild swelling and tightness. Days 5 to 10 light scabs form and flake off. The colour appears too light for about 2 weeks, then settles to the true tone by week 6. Avoid picking the flakes.
