-
Due to individual differences in each person's body, the pigment settles differently for everyone. Your immune system may start rejecting the pigment after the permanent makeup procedure, and the more it rejects it, the lighter the permanent makeup becomes. It's impossible to predict in advance how well the pigment will settle on each person. Therefore, during the touch up, the artist takes into account your individual characteristics and adds pigment to achieve the desired result.
-
Not always. There are cases where the pigment settles perfectly from the first time, and the result satisfies both the artist and the client. In such cases, a touch up is not necessary.
-
If you realize that you need a correction, it should be done not earlier than 28 days and not later than 60 days after the first procedure.

The old misconception that you need to shave your eyebrows before the permanent makeup procedure still exists. It's not true. All your hairs that are part of the desired shape will remain in place and enhance your face. You don't need to pluck or shape your eyebrows before the procedure as I will take care of that during the permanent makeup procedure.
-
No, eyebrows do not fall out after permanent makeup because hair follicles are located in the lower layer of the dermis, while the pigment is implanted into the upper layer. In some cases, permanent makeup can even stimulate the growth of new hairs and awaken dormant follicles, as it improves cellular metabolism in the area.
-
The possibility of covering old permanent makeup depends on the remaining pigment. Each case is individual. If you have dark and prominent previous permanent makeup, there is no point in covering it. It needs to be removed first, and then a new procedure can be done. You can always send photos of your eyebrows and lips without makeup in daylight via Direct Message on Instagram, email, or phone, and I can provide you with advice.
-
I do not recommend getting permanent makeup during pregnancy and breastfeeding since hormonal changes can affect the pigment retention. Therefore, it's best to wait until you have finished breastfeeding before scheduling a visit.

To choose the right eyebrow shape, I consider:
1. The natural growth of your eyebrows.
2. The shape of your face.
3. The positioning of your eyes.
4. The size of your nose and lips.
5. Facial guiding lines.
6. Your preferences, if you have any.

Yes, and it is often necessary because after lip augmentation, the natural pigment on the lip contour may be absent or insufficient. An important rule is that you can get permanent lip makeup done only after 4 weeks from the lip augmentation, not earlier. Alternatively, you can have lip augmentation done 4 weeks after the permanent makeup procedure.
-
Permanent makeup can only be done without eyelash extensions
-
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), over 3.7 billion people under the age of 50 are infected with the herpes simplex virus (HSV-1), which typically causes cold sores on the lips. Not everyone infected with the virus has active symptoms, and many people live with herpes without any visible signs. The activation of the virus depends on the immune system. Any invasive procedure on the lips can trigger its reactivation.
-
After the removal procedure, at least 4 weeks should pass. If no further removal is required, you can proceed with the permanent makeup procedure.
