Permanent makeup (micropigmentation) is an innovative cosmetic skin care treatment that involves applying natural pigments into the dermal layer of the skin. When performed by a skilled esthetician, permanent makeup can enhance many facial areas, including: 

• Lips: Add colour, definition, and shape to your mouth. Permanent makeup can also help avoid the appearance of lipstick bleeding into the fine lines around the mouth.
• Eyebrows: If you have sparse eyebrows, this cosmetic treatment can create a full appearance and flattering shape.
• Eyeliner: Are you tired of applying eyeliner daily? Subtly boost your eye appearance and eyelashes with permanent makeup eyeliner.
• Areola reconstruction: After breast reconstruction, permanent makeup can be used for repigmentation of the nipple area.
• Scars: For patients who have suffered from scars, our skin care specialists can match the affected area to surrounding skin colour for a more even complexion.
