Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Permanent Makeup Correction.

We recommend waiting 6–12 weeks for initial healing and pigment settling before correction. In cases of recent removal or active skin issues, longer healing may be necessary. A consultation evaluates your skin, pigment condition, and sets a safe, personalized correction plan.

Correction uses gentle, targeted techniques designed to minimize trauma. While any procedure carries small risks, experienced artists adapt methods for scarred or sensitive skin to avoid worsening. Pre-consult assesses skin type and scarring, and we provide careful aftercare to support healing.

Longevity varies by skin type, placement, lifestyle, and aftercare. Most corrections maintain improved appearance 1–3 years, with color softening over time. Touch-ups may be recommended every 12–24 months to preserve shape and tone, depending on individual fading patterns.

Complete pigment removal isn't always possible with correction alone; goal is neutralization and reshaping for a natural look. For stubborn or deep pigments, combined approaches like color correction, lightening, or referral for laser removal may be recommended during consultation.

We use topical numbing to keep discomfort minimal; most clients report mild pressure or stinging. Pain varies by area and sensitivity. We'll discuss numbing options in consultation and adjust techniques to maximize comfort throughout the correction procedure.

Expect a thorough review of your previous work, skin history, and desired outcome. We'll assess pigment, scarring, and skin tone, recommend corrective techniques, discuss realistic expectations, timeline, pricing, and aftercare to ensure a safe, personalized correction plan.
