Permanent cosmetic makeup or tattooing is very popular in the beauty world right now. All you need are ink and needles and your eyebrows and lips are permanently done.
Women who have very light eyebrows that are hardly visible in pictures are very interesting in permanent cosmetic makeup or tattooing.
But many women are not sure if this the best thing to do for their look. It can be very tempting to wake up looking as good in the morning as you did in the evening, but are there any downsides of this cosmetic procedure?
As with any tattoo, there comes the risk because of the use of needles. In other words, there is a danger of HIV transmission, hepatitis and staph infections. Although the FDA oversees the inks and the pigments in these inks, the people who apply permanent cosmetic makeup are not regulated that good. There are reports that some people ended up with scars, blisters and small nodules.
To make sure that bad things do not happen to you, before undergoing cosmetic tattooing, it is critical that you check if a salon has appropriate approvals from their local health authorities for skin penetration procedures.
Keep in mind that having an approval for general beauty therapy service is not enough. This approval does not automatically cover cosmetic tattooing procedure. So, insist on seeing the certificate of registration.
The best way to prevent any dangers is to look for referrals and to make sure the environment is clean.
But what about the results? The best ones can perform for many years or they may start to fade over time. Environmental or procedural factors can influence the beauty-span of permanent makeup pigment. For example, if you spend a lot of time on the sun, you can expect colors to fade more quickly.
You should also know that removal of cosmetic tattooing can be very difficult. Common removing techniques include laser resurfacing, dermabrasion and surgical removal.
How much does permanent makeup cost? The average prices per procedure varies but are typically between $400-$800. Avoid those technicians that offer cheap procedures. In most cases they do not offer high quality.
A proper permanent makeup must use good sterilization, good equipment/machine and must be done in a professional facility. And all this means higher cost.
