Pigmentation

Uneven pigmentation of some sort affects most people, regardless of bio-ethnic background or skin color. Skin may either appear lighter, or darker than normal, or lack pigmentation at all; there may be blotchy, uneven areas, patches of brown to gray discoloration or freckling. Skin pigmentation disorders occur because the body produces either too much or too little melanin.

What is pigmentation?

Pigmentation/hyperpigmentation is a common skin problem that can affect many people. Hyperpigmentation refers to darker coloured skin areas. They tend to be smaller darker patches of skin, ageing or pigment spots that have been frequently been exposed to the sun. Hyperpigmentation can occur due to hereditary, thin skin under the lash line; giving a person the appearance of dark circles under their eyes. Discolouration is also common when there has been a skin trauma, injury, when pregnant or due to certain birth control pills. Post-inflammatory pigmentation can be related to acne skin conditions.

What should I avoid if I suffer with pigmentation or hyperpigmentation?

UVA and UVB rays from the sun should be avoided. For best results, prevention and treatment of pigmentation/hyperpigmentation should start from an early age. Unfortunately, not all of us are lucky enough to be ‘in-tune’ with the benefits of an anti-ageing routine, until much later in life. However, if you are one of the fortunate  few, who have  layered up on the sunblock religiously (when your skin is still youthful) and avoided trying to get a tan or use the sunbed, then this might reduce the likelihood of developing sun spots when you’re older. 

How do you treat pigmentation?

Medical grade skincare such as Zein Obagi  are ideal for treating the dark coloured skin known as hyperpigmentation. The three most important medicines include: retinoids (new cell creater & help pigmenting cells penetrate skin), hydroquinone or monobenzyl ether of hydroquinone (stopping melanin production) or corticosteroids (reducing irretated/inflamed skin).

SPMU

WE offer a range of services to enhance your natural beauty. Feel free to pop in anytime for a chat, we can go through your options to enhance your eyes. Your brows really frame your face. It's only when you take your brows away that you notice a difference. Imagine looking at a picture of yourself without any brows? You see what I mean. They are the first thing people see and they make all the difference. Same thing with your lashes. If done correctly, your lashes really open your eyes and can add a touch of glamour. I also offer nail and lip enhancements. Whether you're looking for full lip colour or you just need a little more definition around your lip line, we can find something to suit you. Nail extensions are not always for everyone so why not try an overlay? Whatever you need, we can find the right treatment for you. All the treatments I offer are completely bespoke and tailored to you, so get in touch for a consultation.

Am I eligible for Semi Permanent make up ?

Almost anyone and everyone is able to benefit from Permanent Make Up. There are some medical conditions which are not suitable for PMU. If you have any doubts, it is always best to seek your doctor’s attention and make your technician aware before booking an appointment.

Does it hurt ?

This is always a tricky one to answer. Everybody’s pain threshold is different so it’s really hard to give an accurate answer. I tell people that it will feel a little nippy at first but I use a good anaesthetic to numb the area and you shouldn’t feel a thing. I have clients tell me it feels like having your brows threaded or, a little scratchy on when having lips done.

How long does it last ?

There are a number of factors which can affect the longevity of your brows. These things include skin type, overexposure to the sun and face peels/acids for example. Once the treatment is completed and healed up, your new brows should last between 12 – 18 months and 2 – 3 years for lips. You will then require annual colour boosts to keep your brows and lips looking at their best.

What is the difference between SPMU and tattooing ?

I’m often asked this question. Permanent Make Up is essentially a tattoo on your face. I use pigment instead of ink. This enables your brows to fade true to colour. The biggest difference though, is that we only work in the top layers of your skin. A tattoo is deeper than Permanent Make Up therefore, the results do fade over time. This is why it’s commonly referred to as Semi Permanent Make Up. It is a low maintenance treatment and you will only require annual colour boosts.

Do I have to shave off my eyebrows ?

Absolutely not! The aim is for your brows to look as natural as possible. If you have your own brow hair, however sparse that might be, it will all help add to the finished look.

Will they look right on my face ?

Since everybody is different, it’s important to tailor the shape and colour correctly. This is what takes the longest part of our initial appointment. It’s so important to get it right and I discuss, check, and amend these continuously with your help, during the drawing on stage. This is why your initial appointment takes a few hours. We have to get the outline absolutely right as this will be on your face for a long time! I often find my clients would rather me take the extra time to make sure they are perfect since you can’t rush these things.

Will I be red and swollen afterwards ?

I provide full aftercare following your treatment. Please ensure you follow this carefully as this is just as important as the treatment itself! With correct aftercare, this will ensure you get the most out of your new brows. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

These are the most natural looking and realistic brows. I carefully place pigment into your brows to mimic tiny hairs, giving the appearance of fuller brows.

Can’t decide between Hairstroke and Ombre? Why not have a combination of the two? Have the depth of Ombre but keep the Hairstroke look. This can be achieved with Combination Brows.

Ombre Brows

Lips

Ombre Lip Blush is perfect for defining your lip line without going for full lip coverage. This technique gives you a soft blush of colour, which fades into the centre of your lips.
