Permanent makeup is well established as one of the leading beauty secrets of women of all ages, and it’s not hard to see why! Also referred to or ‘known as’ micropigmentation, our chosen bespoke pigment colour is gently implanted into the upper layers of the skin. This procedure is completely safe and creates perfectly styled eyebrows, lips or eyeline, enhancing shape and giving more definition and colour. You can forget your daily makeup routine! Perfectly applied makeup is here every day!
The end result of both techniques, if used in the correct way by your technician, are both the same. The main difference is that Permanent Makeup is performed with a machine and needles and Microblading is performed by hand with a blade. The pigments used to carry out both procedures are the same, it depends on the technician which they personally prefer.
Microblading CAN create more trauma on the skin than a machine, it can lead to scar tissue in the skin after a few treatments. Yes I favour the machine! Mainly because that’s what I chose to be trained in, it’s less trauma also I like how I can be more precise with my work and lots more different techniques and can be used on lots of more skin types.
Inevitably it’s about what technician you choose, what style you like, that you feel comfortable, confident and happy in your decision before committing.Typically, clients may feel little to no discomfort during or after their permanent makeup treatment. Jodie uses all the latest up to date techniques and equipment, that ensure minimal discomfort. Clients can pre-numb 15 minutes before your appointment to help with any discomfort.
Please note, under new by-law regulations local anaesthetic cannot be applied to pre-numb the area. There are topical creams available such as LMX4/EMLA/AMETOP that you can purchase from Boots or a local pharmacy and apply 20 minutes before your appointment. You must ensure you have fully read the enclosed leaflet and patch tested the area around three days before your treatment. You are not obliged to do so and your therapist is NOT responsible for any possible side effects.
