Who is Permanent Makeup for?

Looking and feeling beautiful is something that most women attain for but sometimes cannot achieve. Now it’s easier than ever to achieve your most desirable look with permanent makeup. This treatment works for a variety of people, including women who are always on the go, women with thinning eyebrows or for those who don’t have eyebrows at all. This treatment allows for women to not have to worry about sweating during a workout or worry about it washing off when going swimming. This treatment also helps tremendously if you have shaky hands.

Hands and vision! Here at Permanent Makeup by Mel, patients receive a free consultation where patients can consult with our experts to find the look that best suits them.

Who Should not get Permanent Makeup?

Not all patients make great candidates for permanent makeup. Patients with oily skin may not qualify for this treatment because the pigment may not take to the skin. Patients who have tattooed eyebrows, eyeliner or lip tattoos will need to schedule a separate appointment to remove the tattoos in order to proceed with the permanent makeup treatment. You do not qualify for this treatment:

  • If you have had Botox within the past 30 days.
  • If you had a chemical peel in the last 30 days you are not eligible.
  • If you are ill or recovering from a recent cold.
  • If you are Diabetic.
  • If you are pregnant or nursing.
  • If you have Epilepsy.
  • If you are undergoing Chemotherapy.
  • If you are a patient who has skin conditions such as: Rosacea or Psoriasis.
  • If you have an organ transplant.
  • If you have heart problems.
  • If you have used Accutane within the past year.

How Long does the Healing Process Take?

The healing process varies for every patient; the initial healing process generally takes between 7-10 days. After the treatment, patients will experience little to mild tenderness in the treated area immediately following the treatment. The pigment will initially appear much more vibrant and darker following the treatment but will lighten up two shades within a week.

How Long does it Last?

Most permanent makeup treatments can last up to years but can vary depending on skin type, lifestyle and exposure to sun. Patients must ensure that they take extra measures to protect their treated area(s) from exposure to sun, smog, etc. To maximize the duration of their treatment. This treatment is ideal for patients who want to focus more on their busy lives rather than constantly having to upkeep their appearance.
