PERMANENT MAKEUP - Micropigmentation
Permanent Makeup Los Angeles / Sherman Oaks
Permanent Makeup is a non surgical micro procedure known as “Micropigmentation.” I use organic pigment, no iron oxides are used in tattooing, as they are safer and more beneficial for use in implantation. TATTOO (IRON OXIDES) should never be used on the face–INEVITABLY they will change color and are very difficult to remove, alter or correct. Color is custom created during consultation and then skillfully implanted with a hand-held disposable needle, not a machine, into the dermal layer of the skin to simulate natural or well-defined makeup. It is a “selective” art form of traditional tattooing, and for some it is not “permanent” as many variables determine the life of the Permanent Makeup, such as environmental factors like sun exposure; or personal skincare such as use of cosmeceuticals and acids. For most people it would last 3-5 years, longer for some and shorter for others. The initial procedure requires a “touch up” about four weeks later, this allows us to see how well the skin “held” the color and if any adjustments need be made; the color will fade and in about 2 weeks and then at 4 weeks we will have the clear result, at which time we do our touch-up.

Preference Over Tattooing
Is that Permanent Makeup can be altered in shape or size and color, Permanent Makeup won’t change in color after a few years where typical tattooing with iron oxides will. It is safer, much less invasive (a hand held method, no machines for better sanitation), topical numbing avoids much and often less if any swelling (depending on the area done).
