Ocean Spa Permanent Makeup
Permanent Make-up
Permanent make-up is micro pigmentation. The cosmetic implantation techniques deposits colored
pigment into the upper reticular layer of the dermis.
Procedure
Permanent makeup procedure is performed with the traditional tattoo method by using a needle to
place pigment into the skin. The process includes an initial consultation to discuss and demonstrate the
most flattering shape and color then application of pigment.
Most people experience a small amount of discomfort. The specialist will use a topical anesthetic
ointment 15 minutes before the procedure to numb the area. The procedure will generally take
approximately 45-60 minutes. Full lip color will take 70 minutes. Retouch procedures will take 20-40
minutes.
Retouch
After the initial procedure, the skin does not always retain the pigment equally in all areas. A follow up
retouch may be desired for adjusting the shape, color, density of the pigment or fix any imperfection.
Based on our experience, about 15 – 20% of clients require a follow up retouch after the procedure.
Technically, permanent cosmetic procedure is considered permanent because the color is implanted
into the upper reticular part of the dermal layer of the skin and cannot be washed off. However, as with
any tattoo, fading can and often does occur, requiring periodic maintenance. Eyebrows may need a
retouch or color re-enhancement after two or three years, eyeliner and lip liner may need a retouch
after four years. Clients may inquire our Permanent Makeup Retouch service.
