Please note, most permanent makeup is a two-step process. Microblading, Lip Blush, Dark Lips Neutralization and Lash Line Enhancement procedures require a perfecting touchup session 6-10 weeks after the initial procedure to fix any potential patches caused by the initial healing phase, intensify any areas you wish to be more prominent, and solidify the longevity of your permanent makeup investment.
Microblading
Microblading procedure consists of manually placed hairstrokes, superficially microbladed into the skin using first a manual tool and then an electric shading machine to create a hyperrealistic hair shadow effect. Lasts up to 3 years, gradually fading over time. We recommend you come in to boost your color every 18-36 months.

Lip Blush
Lip blushing is done using a handheld permanent makeup machine (no microblades), which doesn’t saturate as deep as a normal tattoo. This treatment will give you fuller lips, perfect proportions, richer color, reduce/eliminate fordyce spots, and restore your natural lip outline after injections, injuries, cold sores, etc. Lasts up to 3 years, gradually fading over time.

FAQs
What is permanent makeup?
Permanent makeup, also known as cosmetic tattooing, consists of procedures where pigment is implanted into the skin to enhance facial features such as eyebrows, eyeliner, lips, freckles, etc.
Is it really permanent?
It’s considered “semi-permanent.” The pigment fades over time (usually 1–5 years) depending on skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare. Touch-ups around the 18-36 month mark are recommended. Note* certain procedures such as areola restorations are fully permanent.
Who is a good candidate for permanent makeup?
Generally, healthy individuals looking to enhance or restore their natural facial features. People with alopecia, sparse hair, or allergies to traditional cosmetics often benefit.
Does it hurt?
Most clients report mild discomfort. A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand and throughout the entire procedure to minimize pain.
How long does the procedure take?
Each service ranges depending on the facial area and if it’s an initial session or a touchup. Initial sessions take longer than touchups. Typically, initial microblading or lip blush appointments are 3 hours, initial lash line appointments are 2 hours, and touchups range from 1-2 hours.
How do I choose the right shape and color?
We will consult with you, map out the shape, and match pigments based on your skin tone and preferences before starting.
What is the healing process like?
Expect slight redness, swelling, and flaking. Healing typically takes 7–14 days, with full pigment settling in 4–6 weeks.
How long does it last?
Most procedures last between 1 to 5 years. Fading varies by individual, but touch-ups are recommended every 12–24 months.
Will it look too dark at first?
Yes, the color will appear darker right after the procedure but will fade 30–50% as it heals. Brows and lash line heal about 30% lighter after healing, while lip blush and freckles fade about 50-60%.
Is the touch-up necessary?
Yes, your perfecting session touchup is required 6-10 weeks after the first session. This appointment is where I perfect the result, intensify any areas you wish to be more prominent, and solidify the longevity of your permanent makeup investment.
What aftercare is required?
We provide a full aftercare kit and instructions on appointment day. But generally, you should avoid:
Sweating and heavy exercise
Direct sun exposure
Swimming, saunas, or hot tubs
Applying makeup to the area
Proper aftercare ensures optimal healing and color retention.
Is it safe?
When performed by a licensed, trained professional in a sterile environment, cosmetic tattooing is extremely safe. Always consult with your doctor if you are unsure of your individual case.
Who should avoid permanent makeup?
Pregnant or nursing women, those with certain skin conditions, blood disorders, or on specific medications (e.g., Accutane) should avoid or consult with their doctor first.
Can I have PMU over old or faded tattoos?
Often, yes—but a consultation is required. Sometimes pigment correction or removal may be needed first.
