General Permanent Makeup FAQs
What is permanent makeup?
Permanent makeup, also known as cosmetic tattooing, involves using a specialized machine to deposit pigment into the skin. It enhances facial features by mimicking the appearance of makeup, such as eyeliner, lip color, or brows.
Is permanent makeup the same as traditional tattooing?
While similar, permanent makeup uses different techniques, tools, and pigments. The pigments are designed to fade over time, allowing adjustments as your features change. The equipment is also more delicate, making the process less invasive than traditional tattoos.
How long does permanent makeup last?
Depending on the area, skin type, and aftercare, permanent makeup can last anywhere from 1 to 5 years. Regular touch-ups are recommended to maintain the desired look.
Is the process painful?
Most clients describe the sensation as mild to moderate discomfort. At Arch Angel Brow Studio, we apply a topical numbing cream before the procedure to ensure your comfort throughout the session.
How long does the procedure take?
Procedures generally take 2 to 3 hours, depending on the area being treated. This includes time for consultation, numbing, and applying the pigment.
