Permanent makeup, also known as micropigmentation, is a form of cosmetic tattooing used to enhance facial features. The most common permanent makeup procedures include enhancing eyebrows, eyeliner and lash enhancement, and lipline and full lip color.

Eyebrows
Proper color, shape, and placement of eyebrows help open up the eyes and often times change the appearance of the shape of the face. If you have little or no eyebrow hair, or if you suffer from alopecia, you will benefit from permanent eyebrows. Not only will it look more natural than cosmetics, but this permanent makeup procedure allows you to have this imporant facial feature 24/7! You will have your eyebrows when you wake up in the morning, after you shower or swim, and they won't smudge from perspiration or rubbing.

Eyeliner
All women dream of thicker and fuller eyelashes. Unfortunately, the majority of people who are blessed with this feature are either men or babies. As a woman ages, their eyelashes tend to get thinner and thinner, mostly due to the application of drying mascaras. Most women who want the appearace of thicker lashes will apply eyeliner in addition to mascara. With permanent eyeliner, you can avoid the time consuming process of applying eyeliner. You will also benefit from the fact that you will never have to deal with smudging or cracking.

Lip Color
Many women reapply their lip liner and lipstick numerous times a day... after their morning coffee, after lunch, after their afternoon snack, before they go out, and anytime in between. With permanent lip color, you can benefit from fuller, naturally rosy lips. The lipliner procedure can be used to redefine an irregular lip line or thicken the appearance of your lips. You can also use the full lip color to restore the color of faded lips.
