Permanent Make-Up
Permanent make-up is a process by which our esthetician implants in the dermis layer of the skin a small amount of pigment to greate an illusion or enhancement where hair or color is missing (such as eyebrows, eyeliner, lip liner and color). Permanent make-up is ideal for all women regardless of lifestye. Just imagine waking up with a presentable appearance that won't smear, wear or rub of, no allergic reactions, and save on Department Store Cosmetic purchases. Our esthetician, Madison Smith, is trained in SofTap™, a permanent make-up system that does not use a machine, but a series of aligned prongs inserted at an angle depositing pigment into the skin. This procedure manually pushes pigment in with varying pressure depending on the skin thickness. The pigment is deposited with a soft tap, hence the name. Smith received her training from Cameo College of Essential Beauty, and joins us from Salt Lake City, Utah.

Common Permanent Make Up Q&A
Q :Is permanent make-up safe?
A : Yes. The same pigment I use for permanent make-up has been used in tattooing for centuries.
Q : What about communicable diseases?
A : I am very concerned about the safety of my clients. I only use disposable needles that are sterilized and individually wrapped.
Q : What if I am allergic to the pigment?
A : If you have an alergy, especially to nylon or Dacron, I will do a pigment test before any procedure.
Q : What if I change my hair color and want my eyebrow color
to match?
A : By blending another color of pigment over the original color, you can get the color you desire.
Q : What if eyebrow styles change?
A : Your new eyebrow shape will be based on your own preferences combined with my expert suggestions for a classic look that will never go out of style.
Q : What does permanent lip-liner look like?
A : Permanent lip-liner is usually applied following the natural contour of your lips, but can be altered to your personal preference. This replaces the need to apply lip-liner, you will only need to fill in with lipstick, which requires very little time.
Q : How does the lip-liner look when I am not wearing lipstick?
A : The line is soft and natural in shades that blend with your own lip tissue, making your lips look fuller.
Q : Is the procedure painful?
A : I topically numb the area first, although some people experience minor discomfort during the procedure. This is often described as a stinging or scratching sensation, which subsides as soon as the procedure is over.
Q : How long does it take to heal?
A : It depends on the person. Usually a light crust will form during the first couple of days, then it will fall off within the next 3 to 5 days.
Q : How will I look immediately after the procedure?
A : For the first few days, you will look like you are wearing heavier make-up than usual and sometimes the crust is slightly visible.
Q : Should I wear make-up before the appointment ?
A : Definitely yes. This will allow me to see what your preferences are. Combining your personal preference with my make-up expertise and suggestions will allow me to get the perfect make-up look for you.
Q : How long does permanent make-up last?
A : Depending on each individual skin type, activities and everyday sun exposure, average time is four to eight years.
Q : What if I have more questions?
A : I do consultations by appointment only.
There is a $35.00 fee for a half hour consultation, which will be applied to any permanent make-up procedure, should you decide to purchase one.
