Permanent Makeup
Serving Kansas City & Lee's Summit, Missouri
Permanent makeup, or cosmetic tattooing, is a popular and fast-growing procedure in the health and beauty industry. With permanent lip makeup, you can kiss your lipstick good-bye. After an eyeliner tattoo, you can put away your eye pencils forever.
Permanent makeup is a good option for those who:
- Have faint eyebrows, no eyebrows, or partial eyebrows
- Want to give definition to the lip line
- Are tired of applying makeup daily
Dr. Chhatre's licensed esthetician, Keri will apply the permanent makeup by using a needle to penetrate the skin and release pigment into the hole, just like the process of tattooing. You will select the color, based on advice and suggestions from our aesthetician, Keri. The area to be tattooed will then be sketched with a sterile surgical pen. A topical anesthetic gel will be applied on the area. Finally, using a hollow, vibrating needle, Keri will inject the pigment into the skin's middle layer, the dermis. Each time the needle penetrates the skin, a droplet of pigment is released into the hole made by the needle, leaving you with a permanently pigmented area.
Common areas of treatment include:
- Eyebrows
- Eyelid
- Lips
