Most clients experience minimal discomfort rather than true pain. To ensure your comfort, we apply high-quality, FDA-approved topical anesthetics (lidocaine-based) before and during the procedure. Many clients describe the sensation as a light scratching or vibrating feeling, and some even fall asleep during the session.
PMU is considered “low-maintenance,” not “no-maintenance.” Results typically last between 1 and 3 years, depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and sun exposure. Because the pigment is deposited more shallowly than a traditional tattoo, it will naturally fade over time. We recommend a “color boost” or touch-up session every 12–24 months to keep your look fresh and vibrant.
Proper preparation is key to the best pigment retention:
· 24 Hours Prior: Avoid alcohol, caffeine, and blood-thinning medications like ibuprofen or aspirin.
· 1–2 Weeks Prior: Discontinue use of Retinol, AHAs, or chemical exfoliants near the treatment area.
· Cosmetic Timing: If you use Botox or fillers, ensure your injections are done at least 2–4 weeks before your PMU session.
The full healing cycle takes about 4 to 6 weeks.
· Days 1–5: The color will appear significantly darker and bolder than the final result.
· Days 5–10: You may experience light flaking or “peeling.” It is critical that you do not pick or scratch these flakes, as this can pull pigment out and cause patchy results.
· Final Result: Once the surface has healed, the color will soften by approximately 20–40% to reveal a natural, settled shade.
While PMU is suitable for most people, certain contraindications may prevent us from performing the procedure. You are generally not a candidate if you are:
· Pregnant or breastfeeding.
· Taking Accutane (must be off for at least 1 year).
· Undergoing active chemotherapy.
· Prone to keloid scarring or have an active skin infection in the area.
