Permanent makeup is sometimes known as lip or brow embroidery. It adds semi-permanent makeup to your lips or brows by using color pigments that are implanted into the upper dermal layer using a fine needle. At our affiliated clinic, permanent makeup treatments are custom-made for each individual. A special medical instrument is used to apply the chemical onto desired area. Unlike tattoos, the effects will gradually fade through repeated metabolism and cell turnover.

1. Consultation will be done to assess your lip or brow shape and color.
2. Anesthesia will be applied.
3. Semi-permanent makeup will be applied onto the the desired area.
4. The desired area will be cooled down after treatment is completed.

A3: You are recommended to revisit the clinic after 3 months to check on the pigment retention and do some touch-up as needed.
