permanent make-up
Permanent makeup (PMU) is a cosmetic technique in which pigments are applied under the skin using a needle to mimic makeup. The results remain visible for 2-5 years, depending on skin type, the treated area and aftercare. It provides convenience for people who lack the time or skill for daily makeup, or for individuals with allergies or physical limitations who find it difficult to apply makeup. The different types of permanent makeup I offer are:
suitable for
- Suitable for every skin type
- Making the lips/eyebrows symmetrical
- Making the lips appear fuller without the use of fillers
- Lightening dark lips
- People with allergies to cosmetic products
- Never having to do your makeup again!

the treatment
We start with the intake consultation and together we decide which color and shape suits your face. The treatment takes about 3 hours on average.
The skin is desinfected, and I begin with the pre-drawing. A lot of attention is given to this step so that you get an idea of the final result. There is still plenty of time to discuss any adjustments. Only when we are both 100% satisfied with the sketch, we begin the permanent-makeup process. Even during the treatment, we will regularly check in!
Immediately after the treatment, the treated area may appear darker and possibly swollen. Don’t be alarmed, the swelling will subside in about 24 hours, and the color will fade by 50-60%.
We will meet again for a touch-up between 6-8 weeks. During the touch-up, we will review the result together, and the color and shape will be adjusted as needed.
