Permanent makeup performed with pigments containing iron oxides may eventually turn eyebrows pink or orange or lips blue. Pigment migration is also possible, which leads to color spreading to unwanted areas. Such mishaps are not uncommon due to the use of iron oxide pigments and body tattoo ink used for micropigmentation. At Ology we use pigments free of these types of pigments to enhance the lasting effects of permanent makeup. As research continues in cosmetic tattooing more and more correctional options are becoming available to technicians.
There are several questions the technician will need to know before deciding how perform a correctional procedure. First, how long ago was the procedure performed? This will determine if the patient is fully healed. Next, what color was originally applied? Also, it is helpful if the patient knows the type of pigment that was used in the original procedure. And last, what color does the patient want?
Correctional permanent makeup can take several treatments depending on the amount of change needed. With each treatment the unwanted color is lightened and lifted. Then the correct color can be implanted over the desired area. Although the process can be lengthy, the end result is worth the wait.
