Permanent Makeup
Permanent Pigmentation is the micro-implantation of all-natural approved pigments into the skin pores with a specially designed machine. The procedure is completely safe, and in most cases virtually painless. Even more incredible, it can be corrected in most cases. The most important aspect of Permanent Makeup is that it is much more appealing with less work. It has the added advantage of not coming off during the night, in the pool, on the tennis court, etc. And it saves time!
