How long does permanent make-up last?

When we talk about how long semi-permanent make-up lasts, we need to distinguish between the time it takes to carry out the treatment and how long the finished permanent make-up lasts over time.

TIME NEEDED FOR THE FIRST permanent make-up SESSION

A dermopigmentation treatment takes about two hours, spent on design and execution. Naturally the time may vary if there are particular imperfections: rushing is not part of how we work, whereas punctuality for appointments is essential.

HOW LONG THE TREATMENT LASTS

How long permanent make-up lasts depends on several factors:
– the client’s age (in younger people, macrophages reabsorb and eliminate the pigments faster);
– sun exposure (phagocytosis speeds up with exposure to tanning lamps or sunlight);
– individual healing;
– the technique used;
– the colour used;
– the client’s skin characteristics;

My advice is to have the treatment touched up after 8-12 months, when the make-up is still clearly visible but several shades lighter; the touch-up will then be more convenient in terms of both time and cost.

POSSIBLE SECOND SESSION

After the first permanent make-up session, you must wait 28-40 days, the period in which cell renewal takes place and healing is considered complete. Our experience shows that out of 10 treatments, 6 do not need a second touch-up. But since healing is highly individual, a second session may be needed to perfect the work.During this time the make-up may go through various changes in colour and structure, which are no cause for alarm: they are the result of cell renewal, which inevitably changes how the work looks.
