Micropigmentation - Best Treatment for Flawless Permanent Makeup

While applying makeup, most people wonder if they could get permanent makeup-like looks without spending time perfecting their facial features. If you too have thought about it, we’ve got great news for you!

Yes. We are talking about micropigmentation. It is a cosmetic tattooing treatment, which many refer to as permanent makeup. Micropigmentation glams your looks up in various ways, giving you the spotless makeup look you’ve always aspired to. Continue reading as we explore a few essential aspects of micropigmentation and the benefits of permanent makeup.

What is Micropigmentation?

Micropigmentation, also called permanent makeup, is a cosmetic tattooing procedure. It involves depositing pigments into the skin’s upper layer to enhance and define specific facial features. The treatment is designed to deliver enduring results and smudge-proof makeup. The procedure involves depositing pigment through a handheld device with a fine needle. Undergoing micropigmentation can save time and effort you spend on daily makeup. However, its benefits go beyond these routine ones. Let’s look at some advantages of micropigmentation.

Benefits of Micropigmentation

Here’s how micropigmentation can benefit you.

• Achieving Natural-Looking Eyebrows and Lips
  This is one of the first benefits of micropigmentation as it covers various facial features. Thus, whether you want to improve your eyebrows or define lip contours, permanent makeup can create the look you’ve always desired.
  
• Reduced Skin Irritation
  Many people suffer from allergies or have sensitive skin. Such factors can make traditional makeup impossible. Undergoing a permanent makeup treatment can eliminate the need to use cosmetic products and keep allergies at bay.
• Long-Lasting Results with Minimal Maintenance
  When done through an expert, micropigmentation for lips or micropigmentation for hair can last for several years. After that, you can perform regular touch-ups to maintain those elevated looks for an even longer time.
• Corrective Actions
  Enhancing features with micropigmentation is one thing. However, did you know it can be used for corrective purposes as well? Yes. You can use it for corrective asymmetries, restoring eyebrow appearance, camouflaging scars, etc.
• Waterproof Makeup
  Permanent makeup is waterproof. Hence, it doesn’t wash away while performing activities like swimming.
• Customized Appearance
  You can personalize the treatment by working out the best-suited looks and feature designs based on your expectations and aspirations.
• Consistent Appearance
  Inconsistent appearance is a major concern with makeup. Of course, you cannot be perfect all the time and every day with your makeup. However, micropigmentation ensures even looks without requiring you to do frequent touch-ups during the day.

Micropigmentation Procedure and Aftercare

Micropigmentation involves a step-by-step procedure that includes the following.

• It begins with an initial consultation that includes the specialist assessing the treatment’s suitability, discussing the expected outcomes, explaining the procedure, and informing potential side effects and risks.
• Once the specialist deems the treatment suitable, they work with the client to design the shape and select the color. It involves drawing the design on the skin to deliver accurate results.
• After that, the specialist applies a topical anesthetic cream to the area to minimize pain and discomfort while the procedure is in progress.
• With a micropigmentation device, the technician implants the pigment into the skin. They do so with fine needles to help penetrate the pigment.
•  Once done with the initial application, the expert  reviews the result and makes adjustments and alignments as required.

The first session of the treatment usually lasts two to three hours. However, the treatment’s duration depends on the area under treatment. A follow-up session will be required a month or month and a half after the initial procedure to enhance the results and look for issues like fading.

Sustaining the result for a long time and ensuring optimal impact requires following a range of aftercare instructions. The specialist will discuss them with you before the treatment. However, generally, they include the following.

• Clean the area gently with a mild, non-fragrant cleanser and lukewarm water, and pat it dry with a clean tissue or towel.
• Apply a thin layer of the aftercare ointment prescribed by the doctor.
• Avoid touching the treated area with unclean hands.

Some generic tips include,

• Refrain from applying makeup or skincare products until the treated region heals completely.
• Avoiding saunas or excessive sweating for at least a couple of weeks.
• Protecting the skin by wearing sunscreen with at least SPF 30.
• Avoid picking or scratching the treated region of the skin.

• Ensuring proper moisturization with an expert-recommended moisturizer.

Micropigmentation is an effective treatment. However, it isn’t devoid of side effects. Some include itching and flaking, infection, redness and swelling. You must discuss these aspects, along with the benefits of permanent makeup, with the specialist to educate yourself and make an informed decision.
