Permanent Makeup, Micropigmentation, Scar Camouflage

For a more radiant, carefree look!

Do You:

• Always want to look your best with the least amount of time and effort, even when you are active, or when you wake up in the morning?
• Have problem areas around your eyebrows with too little or uneven hair growth?
• Want to accentuate your eyes, but either don' t have the tie or the skill to apply eye make-up effectively?
• Want to have fuller lips or a more define outline to your lips?
• Have a facial or body scar that you wish would disappear or be less obvious?

Micro-pigmentation, also referred to as Permanent Make-up , is absolutely waterproof.  Permanent makeup is the micro-implantation of mineral extract into the skin.  This ancient practice which has beatified women in Asia for centuries is now available in our office through our safe and modern technology.  All of the dyes used are allergy-tested and cleared by the FDA.

What are the procedures and recovery like?

A topical or local anesthesia is used to prevent any pain or discomfort during the procedure.  A complete upper and lower lash line takes about 30-40 minutes.  Eyebrows and lip lines are also brief with little discomfort.

In an eyelid procedure the pigment is placed subtly between the lashes, into the dermis, or second layer of your skin.  This creates the appearance of a soft lash liner.  Using a variety of micro-needle styles, our technician can also create the appearance of tiny eyebrow cilia.

Following breast reconstruction, many patients choose to have their nipple-areola complex reconstructed to match their natural breast.  After selecting the proper pigment, the technician measures and outlines the area to be reconstructed.  When the pigmentation is first applied it will seem darker than the natural areola.  This will fade slightly over time, resulting in a natural look.

Patients with pigmentation loss from vitiligo, scars or burns may also benefit from micro-pigmentation.  one session is usually sufficient to pigment an area of up to three square inches and can be performed using local anesthesia.  When touch-ups are required, the may be done at a later date.

Most patients enjoy an almost immediate recovery and resume all normal activities within 24 hours.  Topical antibiotic ointment is used for a few days.  you will also be asked to refrain from applying make-up, avoid direct sunlight and avoid wearing contact lenses for a few days.  Some patients may experience a slight swelling in the area.  this will subside with the use of a cool compress.
