I've often said that my work can only be as good as the canvas: It can be really hard to make permanent makeup look GOOD on BAD skin... Having healthy, good skin is very important when undergoing permanent makeup (PMU) procedures for several reasons:
1. Better Pigment RetentionHealthy skin absorbs and retains pigment more effectively. Skin that is hydrated and well-nourished helps the pigment set properly, leading to more vibrant and longer-lasting results. On the flip side, dry /Â damaged / compromised skin may result in patchy pigment and faster fading.
2. Smoother Application healthy skin surface ensures that I can work more smoothly and accurately. Skin which is free from inflammation, acne, or irritation provides a more stable canvas. That leads to precise lines and better overall results, particularly for delicate work like eyebrows, eyeliner, or lips.
3. Faster Healing Healthy skin heals more quickly after a procedure, reducing the risk of infection or complications. Good skin condition supports quicker recovery with less peeling, scabbing, or irritation, ensuring the final result looks clean and even.
4. Reduced Risk of Complications Pre-existing skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, or severe acne can increase the risk of complications during the healing process. Healthy skin reduces the likelihood of adverse reactions, infections, or pigment rejection.
5. Longer-Lasting ResultsThe healthier your skin is before the procedure, the longer-lasting the results will be. Skin that regenerates and maintains moisture well ensures the pigment remains vibrant for an extended period.Maintaining healthy skin before and after PMU procedures is key to achieving the best results. Proper skincare, such as using sun protection, hydration, gentle exfoliation, avoiding harsh chemicals, and not picking can greatly improve overall skin health and PMU outcomes and longevity!Â
