Healing varies based on the individual and the area treated. Following the aftercare instructions provided to you on the day of your appointment is essential for optimal healing.
During the first 10 days of healing after getting permanent makeup, it’s important to avoid the following:
Individuals with certain medical conditions, allergies, or those on specific medications may not be suitable candidates for permanent makeup. A thorough consultation will help determine eligibility.
Allergies to tattoo ink or permanent makeup pigments are not common, but it’s always better to be safe than sorry. If you have an allergy to colorants, such as those found in food or clothing, we recommend doing a patch test one month prior to your procedure. However, if you already have tattoos, have minor sensitivities to makeup, or have seasonal allergies, a patch test isn’t necessary. Rest easy knowing that we have your best interests in mind and will ensure you have a comfortable and safe experience. Please call our studio if you would like to schedule a patch test.

Not every individual needs an in-person consultation. However, we do require that you send photos to our email at contact@dermaluxespa.com when booking your appointment. If you are unsure which treatment to select, have any contraindications, or have had previous permanent makeup done elsewhere, a consultation is required.
During your permanent makeup procedure, it’s normal to experience a bit of discomfort. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with numbing anesthetics to keep the pain minimal. To ensure the best experience possible, we recommend being well-rested and hydrated before your appointment. If you’re on your menstrual cycle or about to start, you may be more sensitive to pain, so it’s a good idea to schedule your appointment accordingly. A little bit of preparation goes a long way in making your procedure as comfortable as possible.
The duration varies depending on the area being treated and the complexity of the design. Typically, a session can last anywhere from 1 to 3.5 hours.
Permanent makeup is a wonderful way to enhance your natural beauty, and it’s designed to last for a good while. Typically, it can last anywhere from 1 to 3 years, and often even longer, depending on factors such as your skin type, aftercare routine, and lifestyle habits.
Individuals with oily skin may find that the pigments fade faster. Similarly, those who engage in activities that cause excessive sweating, such as hot yoga, swimming, or sun exposure, may also notice quicker fading. On the other hand, individuals with normal to dry skin may find that the pigments last longer. Additionally, people who take good care of their skin by avoiding exfoliants and acids around the brow area that may cause fading, may also find that the results last longer.
Yes, touch-ups are often necessary for permanent makeup. The initial application may not achieve the desired color intensity, so a touch-up helps fine-tune the pigment. Some areas may fade more quickly than others, and a touch-up ensures even color distribution. Adjustments may also be needed to perfect the shape and symmetry. Additionally, touch-ups help maintain the appearance over time, as all permanent makeup gradually fades. We recommend a touch-up within 6-8 weeks after the initial procedure, with maintenance touch-ups every 1-2 years depending on the individual’s skin type and lifestyle.
It depends on the individual whether we can fix permanent makeup done elsewhere. In most cases, we are able to help, but at times we may not accept clients. Several factors come into play, including the number of sessions previously done, the placement of ink (wrong shape, out of lip line, or eyeliner blowout), the color of the ink used (unnatural colors like blue, green, or purple), and the saturation (too dark). Not every client is a candidate for corrections, and in some cases, removal may be required before any further work can be done. If there is too much scar tissue, residual color, or hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation even after removal, we will not offer additional permanent makeup services. Each situation is unique, and a thorough consultation is necessary to determine the best course of action.
