ELECTROLYSIS & PERMANENT MAKEUP
What Is Electrolysis?
Electrolysis is a method of hair removal that uses an electric current to destroy the hair follicle, preventing future hair growth in the treated area. It is considered a permanent hair removal solution and is commonly used for small areas like the face, especially for individuals seeking to remove unwanted facial hair. Electrolysis is known for its precision, making it suitable for small areas where precise hair removal is essential. However, it can be a time-consuming process, as each hair follicle needs to be treated individually. The number of sessions required depends on factors like the density of hair in the treated area and the individual's hair growth cycle.
What Is Permanent Makeup?
Permanent makeup is really cosmetic tattooing. It is also sometimes called micropigmentation or dermatopigmentation. The procedure is a method of inserting pigment into the skin’s dermal layer (the layer between the epidermis that is constantly shedding and the deep base of the skin). Hundreds of thousands of clients take advantage of these remarkable procedures every year including many famous personalities. The procedure is so popular that you know someone who has had it done.
Permanent makeup is the perfect solution for the active or athletic woman who wants to avoid the inconvenience of repeatedly reapplying makeup all day long. It is also a great alternative for women with allergies to makeup or for those with trouble seeing to apply makeup.
What Types of Permanent Makeup Are There?
Permanent Eyeliner
Permanent eyeliner is applied by implanting pigment in the eyelid margin, at the lash line. The procedure provides a fine-lined appearance that enhances eye appearance without the heavy makeup look. On special occasions heavier makeup or a different color can be applied with conventional makeup. Permanent eyeliner will gradually wear off in time and will require touchups.
Permanent Eyebrows
With permanent makeup eyebrows can be shaped and defined with perfect symmetry. Balanced eyebrow shape enhances facial appearance. Modern permanent eyebrow makeup applications use a feathering stroke to give the eyebrows the appearance of normal hair. As with other permanent makeup applications the pigmentation will wear off in time and touchup treatments will be needed.
Permanent Lip Color
Many advances have been made in the last fifteen years in permanent lip makeup. Micropigmentation is applied to the entire lip or to the lip line with a tattooing process that enhances lip color and defines natural lip lines. Colors are selected for the active woman based on skin type and skin color.
