What is Included in The Price

Make sure what is included in the price doesn’t always include a touch-up visit, many technicians charge for each appointment separately.

Remember the second visit is required to check healed results and make some adjustments. A follow-up visit after 4-8 weeks cost is much lower than Initial sessions since it requires less work unless you have an old tattoo that needs color correction, reshaping, or removal. In this case, it might take more visits and patience.

Permanent Makeup Quality Device

We use the machine with the unique magnetic motor to ensure super exact needle guidance – for micro-pigmentation which is particularly gentle on the skin. Where other PMU devices may need to apply more pressure for the color to penetrate the skin and thereby potentially affecting it.

The precision PMU device consists of an electronic safety microcontroller. The safety controller ensures a precise, quiet, and balanced micro-pigmentation process, as well as short color injection times. Furthermore, the device has an integrated ink flow and the pigments are filled into sterile disposable modules (no unhygienic dipping in open color pots).

The special vertical lift mechanism allows an even and calm application. When not in use, the pigmentation needle automatically retracts into the disposable module thereby preventing any risk of injury. The disposable module ensures pigmentation in compliance with the highest hygiene provisions.

Permanent Makeup Studio Location

Location is a major consideration that determines the permanent cosmetics service prices if the area or city is more expensive automatically the costs are higher. The work should be done in a private room, without any contaminants like nail dust or hair spray.
