What Is Permanent Makeup?
If you want to avoid having to apply makeup every day or if you sweat easily, permanent makeup can offer an effective solution that enhances your natural beauty. During a permanent makeup treatment, we use artistic techniques and apply high-quality inks to achieve beautiful results. Cosmetic tattooing helps patients feel and look their best at any time of the day. It works really well for patients who have allergies to makeup, maintain an active lifestyle, or prefer an effortless morning routine. Permanent makeup can also help patients who have difficulty seeing or applying makeup because of certain medical issues. To learn more, we encourage you to call Rejuve Aesthetic Surgery in Tampa, FL, and schedule an appointment with Dr. Brandon-Dzung Mang.
Are You A Candidate For Permanent Makeup?
With an artistic perspective and years of experience, Dr. Mang can help patients look and feel beautiful with permanent makeup. We offer permanent makeup for the eyebrows, eyes, and lips. These treatments can work well for patients who:
- Possess thin eyebrows
- Have vision or mobility issues
- Have thin or light-colored lips
- Possess a cleft lip
- Prefer a permanent option to enhance the eyes
- Have allergies to eyeliner or eyebrow makeup
At your consultation, we will go over your concerns and create a treatment plan that meets your needs.
Permanent Makeup Technique
At the beginning of your appointment, we will start by applying a numbing cream to reduce any discomfort. Prior to your treatment, we will create a detailed treatment plan that outlines your preferences and shows the selected colors for your eyebrows, lips, or eyes. We will confirm these colors before starting your procedure. Next, once you feel completely comfortable and your skin is numb, we will outline or fill in your brows or lips. This helps us determine the best shape before applying the color. Typically, the procedure takes about an hour to complete, but it depends on how many treatment areas you have. After the procedure, you can resume your daily activities, but you should avoid exercise for the next couple of days. We will also provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure your skin heals properly. In about 7 – 10 days, you should start to see your final results, which will last for a long time.

Permanent Makeup FAQ
Does getting permanent makeup hurt?
Everyone has their own unique tolerances for discomfort, but most patients don't find that getting permanent makeup is painful. Before your procedure begins, we will apply a topical anesthetic to the treatment area to help keep you comfortable. If pain is a concern, talk to us during your consultation, and we can discuss options to make your permanent makeup experience at Rejuve Aesthetic Surgery more enjoyable.
Is permanent makeup really permanent?
Unlike a body art tattoo, permanent makeup typically isn't permanent. Most patients can expect their results to last up to five years, depending on skin health, skin tone, sun exposure, age, and other factors. If your color fades, contact us to schedule a touch-up treatment to refresh your permanent makeup results.
How long does it take to recover after getting permanent makeup?
Most patients can heal within about a week to 10 days. You may experience minor redness, swelling, and tenderness for up to three days after your procedure. Even so, there is no recommended downtime, so you'll be able to return to your normal routine whenever you're ready. We do recommend that you avoid heavy exercise or exertion, wearing makeup, or sun exposure until you are fully healed.
