Permanent Makeup

What is Permanent Makeup?

Permanent make-up, or more accurately “micro-pigment application”, is the process of grafting natural and mineral colors just below the skin surface with a micro, sterile, and disposable needle. These non-allergic colors are specially designed for face and body use and do not contain additives or fragrances. Permanent make-up should not be confused with tattooing, but it also stays on the skin for many years and preserves its natural appearance. Thanks to this process, which can be considered as a cosmetic tattoo, effects that are compatible with your natural skin color can be created on the eyebrows, eye lines, or lips, as well as some minor defects or deformities, can be corrected. Thus, it is easy to gain a neater, well-groomed, and youthful appearance! Models, actors, actresses, and many celebrities who work in the show business have used this application to enhance their appearance. Apart from the aesthetic value obtained; Considering the stress, time, and money saved with this method, it’s pretty obvious why this method is called “make-up of the future”!

Who Is Permanent Makeup Recommended For?
Most people describe the moment of application as a slight stinging sensation. There is minimal discomfort, which will vary according to the pain sensitivity of the person and the lightness of the hand of the practitioner. Superficial anesthesia and oils can be used to minimize the discomfort that may occur in the area and numb the area, as well as local anesthesia under the supervision of a doctor or dentist. The length of the procedure may vary depending on the sensitivity of the person, skin moisture, density, elasticity, and the general condition of the skin. The average time is 2-3 hours. A set of micro sterile needles are dipped into a permanent color mixture and applied to the skin in line with the wishes of the person. The fresh color is injected into the upper layer of the skin by means of needles. Unlike tattooing, it is less painless as the skin is slightly lifted and the color is applied. For the same reason, trauma to the skin heals much more quickly. After the application, most people can resume normal life immediately. For the application to be completely permanent, it requires attention to some things. Overexposure to the sun’s UV rays or solarium sessions, too dry skin, and some drugs and cigarettes are the factors that negatively affect permanence. Alpha-hydroxy, Retin-A, and glycolic acid are substances that should be kept away from areas where permanent makeup is applied. Otherwise, extra care may be required at certain times as the effect may decrease. Some measures such as using sun-protected cream on the eyelids, wearing sunglasses on the eyes with eyeliner, and applying protection on the lips will increase the permanence of the makeup.

Is Permanent Makeup Safe?

It is safe if due care is taken and cleanliness is given importance. All of the pigments (colors) used are natural. The material used should be disposable sterile materials. Thus, the risk of disease transmission from the environment is zeroed. Before getting permanent makeup, a test can be applied that will reveal the differences in the undertones of the skin color. Thanks to this test, it is also understood whether the person is allergic and the risk of an allergic reaction is eliminated. Disposable surgical gloves should be used in each session. If all cleaning requirements are met before the application, the chances are almost zero. The main points to consider are:

All needles must be new and sterile for each new customer.
Other parts, equipment, and materials to be used must also be sterile and used within hygiene rules.
The used surgical glove must be renewed for each client and changed whenever necessary during the application.
