3 Myths About Permanent Makeup

Permanent makeup is an amazing way to spice up your look. Many people choose permanent makeup as a long term cosmetic solution. For instance, if you were to add up how much money that you were spending on cosmetics for your lips, brow and eyes annually, how much money do you think that would add up to? Additionally, what about how much money you would spend on the same products over the next five years? Over the next ten years?

The numbers that you come back with can be rather astounding, especially when compared to how much money and time that you could save by getting permanent makeup applied just one time instead. There are some common myths that surround permanent makeup, too. So let’s debunk a few of these for you so that you are better apprised.

1. The body absorbs the tattoo ink over time. FALSE: This is commonly confused with injected dermal fillers that over time are absorbed by the body. With permanent makeup, the ink is there forever. Over time it may fade slightly, but all you will need is a quick touchup every four or five years.
2. There are no certifications required for a permanent makeup technician, or barely any oversight. FALSE: The Member Practitioners of the American Board of Permanent Cosmetics (ABPC) require a very strict and vehemently enforced certification process that assures that only certified, licensed and insured professionals are providing such permanent makeup treatments.
3. Permanent makeup is not safe. FALSE: The application process is very safe and sterile, and requires that the technicians undergo hundreds of hours of training to perform in an approved setting. The ink that is used has been used for hundreds of years and is very safe for your body. The needles are fresh and sterile, right from the factory sealed packaging. Rarely do any persons have an undesirable reaction to the procedure.
