Permanent makeup, also known as Intradermal Pigmentation, is a revolutionary
method of applying natural pigments into the dermal layer of skin. This
state-of-the-art technique is medically proven and specifically designed to
be completely safe.
Permanent makeup is used for a variety of cosmetic enhancements such as
permanent:
eyebrows
eyeliner
lip liner/color
Other permanent makeup procedures include vitiligo, scar camouflage, areola
restoration, hairline enhancement, and more.
At our Willowbrook, IL MedSpa it is performed using very fine, sterile, 100%
disposable tips and supplies, to deposit pigment into the dermis.
Microblading
Microblading is an advanced manual method of
cosmetic tattooing
or micro-pigmentation.
This method is ideal for anyone wanting to enhance the look of their
eyebrows. The results are natural-looking, hair-like strokes, regardless of
the amount of natural brow hair present.
Microblading is a multiple-step appointment process. For best results, new
clients are offered
one complimentary consultation
with our specialist to discuss color, shape, and aftercare.
The first session will take approximately 2 hours. 6 weeks later a touch-up
is a MUST to complete your final look.
Some may choose to have additional Touch-Ups in the future to achieve
desired results.
Please be prepared that eyebrow color intensity will be significantly darker
and sharper within the first few days of the procedure but fade
significantly (approximately 30-40%) over the healing period.
Results and longevity vary greatly from person to person. However, we
recommend a Touch-Up annually to retain the ideal shape and saturation of
pigment.
Permanent Eyeliner
Permanent Eyeliner frames the eyes and can make eyelashes appear thicker,
darker, and fuller. It eliminates the need to apply eyeliner with (makeup)
pencil or liquid eyeliner. It can enhance the shape or balance of the
symmetry of individual eyes, create the illusion of larger eyes, or affect
how the spacing of the eyes is perceived. Permanent Eyeliner can also
enhance or intensify eye color and make eyes appear brighter.
For those who like a more natural look, eyeliner is enhanced on the base of
the lashes making it appear as though you have full and thick lashes.
Permanent Makeup Lip
Performing a lip procedure will enhance and/or correct the natural symmetry
of the mouth. It gives balance to the face because treatments can make the
lips look smaller, bigger, or more even. Lip color adds youthfulness and the
right color brings attention to the face and eyes.
Permanent Makeup Paramedical Areola
For women who have undergone mastectomies, or other breast surgery, or who
may have irregular or fading areolas, this permanent paramedical breast
restoration procedures are nothing short of a medical miracle. Our permanent
areola repigmentation and nipple restoration techniques employ cosmetically
tattooed micro-pigmentation as a way to restore the natural beauty of your
breasts, so you can regain confidence in your femininity.
Before & Aftercare
Absolutely No Sun, sweating, or tanning before the procedure or after
the procedure for 10 days. Do not have a tan/sunburn on your face before
your procedure. The tan will exfoliate taking color with it as it fades.
If you show up to your appointment with a sunburn, you will be required
to reschedule, and your deposit will be forfeited.
Permanent makeup will not be performed if you are pregnant or
nursing!!!!
Do not work out the day of the procedure as the body heat expands the
pores. It is recommended not to sweat (heavily) for the first 10 days
after the procedure. Sweat is salt and can prematurely fade the treated
area.
If you use Botox, it should be performed either 2 weeks before your
scheduled procedure or 2 weeks after your procedure.
Avoid direct shower water on the treated area after the procedure. Apply
the Vaseline before showering to prevent soaps and shampoos from getting
on the treated area. Absolutely NOTHING on the treated area..no water,
no makeup, lotions, pencil….etc. for 10 days. Apply Vaseline
before showering. After 10 days, use a gentle cleanser to clean them.
Avoid scrubbing the treated area for 1 month.
Do NOT take Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E, and/or Ibuprofen unless
medically necessary, 48-72 hrs before your procedure. Tylenol is fine.
Avoid sleeping on your face during the 1st 10 days after the procedure.
You MUST be off Retin-A or Retinols for 7 days before your appointment
and avoid using them on or around the area for 30 days after. If used
before 30 days, it can cause the pigments to fade prematurely. If you
resume the Retin-A or Retinols after 30 days, please know that the
continued use will fade your permanent makeup prematurely.
You have to be off Accutane for 1 year. NO Exceptions!
If you have oily skin, your results WILL appear softer (eyebrows can
look solid) in appearance and may require additional procedures.
For dark Skin types please note that your permanent makeup will not
appear as bold as lighter skin types. (Indian, African American,
Filipino, etc.)
Avoid alcohol or caffeine before the procedure, this will minimize any
oozing or swelling after the procedure.
Getting a procedure while on your menstrual cycle can make you
hyper-sensitive at the procedure site.
If there are any blemishes, pimples, active cold sores, or irritation of
the the skin of any kind, moles, or other skin imperfections in or
around the area of the procedure, We WILL NOT be able to do the
procedure until the blemish or area of concern is gone or the mole is
removed and healed.
No swimming until the area is completely healed, salt water/chlorine can
cause the pigments to fade or change in color. It is recommended to
apply the Vaseline to the treated area/s before swimming even after
healed to prevent the chlorine water/salt water from penetrating the
area.
Only touch the treated areas with squeaky clean hands. Apply Vaseline
with a Q-tip. This is a must. We do not want an infection.
Do not rub, scratch, or pick at the treated area. Let any scabbing or dry skin naturally exfoliate off. Picking can
cause scarring.
Plan on scheduling your touch-up within the first 6 months.
