SEMI PERMANENT MAKEUP
Semi permanent makeup FAQ's - Everything You Need To Know
What is it?
Semi Permanent Makeup is a form of cosmetic tattooing which uses an electronically powered machine and needle (similar to a conventional tattoo but much less aggressive and the pigment is not implanted as deeply). It can also be done using a hand held microblade on brows.
Whether you are looking for something soft and natural or to create more of a statement look, we use the best products and techniques available to create truly bespoke and utterly flawless results for our clients.
How long does it take?
Eyebrow appointments usually take around 90 minutes.
Lip tattooing will take around 2 hours.
Eyeliner tattooing can take between 60-120 minutes depending on the desired style.
This includes your consultation.
What happens during the treatment?
We will start with a full consultation where we will make sure your natural colouring, face shape and desired look are all carefully considered before creating a template for your new, enhanced SPMU.
I then use an electronic hand piece, or hand held microblade, to trace over the template created, so the finished result is exactly as agreed between us. Afterwards I will show you your new look and apply aftercare products to soothe your skin and encourage healing.
Does the procedure hurt?
Numbing agents are used before we begin and throughout, meaning discomfort is very minimal.
My clients usually rate the discomfort at about 2 out of 10, if they feel any at all.
How long do they last?
Quite unlike conventional tattoos, cosmetic tattooing is only semi permanent, meaning they it will not last forever. However, it will last around 36 months before beginning to fade.
Will I be able to go back to work straight afterwards?
Absolutely. Typically the area around your treatment may be slightly red, but that should be the only after-effect.
Does Semi Permanent Makeup ruin your natural brows?
Opting for technicians without the proper training and experience can mean that proper procedures may not be followed, which can seriously damage your natural eyebrows.
I have an extensive portfolio of treatments and have been through a high level of training with Finishing Touches Group - ABT Accredited. You’ll always receive state-of-the-art procedures, using the highest quality equipment.
Do you provide aftercare?
Yes – you will receive a complete aftercare kit to take away with you to ensure you can get the best result for your permanent makeup. SPMU typically lasts up 12 and 24 months when aftercare is correctly followed.
