Dermopigmentation, also known as permanent makeup, is an aesthetic procedure that consists of painting our skin so that it seems to be with makeup without needing to apply beauty products. In this text, we explain exactly what the pros and cons of this process are, and we help decide if that is the best option for your case.

Pro - Practice in the morning

The most obvious benefit of permanent makeup is that you do not have to wake up early if you want to leave the house makeup! Those who do the dermopigmentation wakes up literally ready for the activities of the day, eliminating steps and facilitating the mornings.

Against - Dermopigmentation is semipermanent

Despite being known as "permanent makeup", the dermopigmentation is actually semipermanent. This is because it takes to do retouching, and depending on the method, the makeup lasts a few months. Despite this, there are options that only need to be redone after 3 years, which is already a good period for those who prefer practicality.

Pro - Microblading is already common in Brazil

Surely you must have heard of microblading! This option for permanent makeup for the eyebrows is already quite common here in Brazil, with several options of aesthetic clinics for those who want to do the procedure. The microblading process eliminates the need to fill the eyebrows with makeup, as it uses small blades and pigments that mimic the natural colors of the eyebrow.

Against - it is harder to find the other options

If you thought there was only one kind of dermopigmentation, the microblading, is very much mistaken! Science has evolved, and now there is the possibility of pigmentation of lips, permanent eyeliner, and even camouflage of scars!

Lip pigmentation, or lip tattoo, usually lasts a year. It consists of a permanent "lipstick" usually in nude or pink color. The permanent eyeliner is usually applied to the upper eyelid to give the appearance of more full eyelashes.

As for scarring camouflage, it is even more unusual around here. It is a type of tattoo with a pigment of the same skin color, which can be used both on the face, to cover acne scars, and to cover stretch marks and mastectomy scars.

Pro - depending on the professional, the results are quite natural

It is important that you make sure that the professional knows what he is doing, preferably by personally the result of the procedure in other women he answered. This is important because natural results are usually beautiful, but when work is poorly done, it is difficult to reverse the process.

Against - can hurt a little

Dermopigmentation is a type of tattoo, regardless of the style you choose. Therefore, understand that it is possible to feel a nuisance, mainly because the process is usually done in more sensitive areas of the face, such as eyebrows and lips. Regardless, many women have already said they did not feel anything during the procedure, and some clinics even offer anesthesia to their customers.

Pro - No reapplications

The bad side of the makeup is that if you are using during the day, you will probably have to reapply multiple times in the bathroom to keep the look. If this bothers you, maybe the dermopigmentation is the ideal choice for you. After all, who needs to reapply a makeup that is practically permanent?

Against - is expensive

As we have already mentioned, the microblading is already more common here in Brazil, and so the process can be found at more affordable prices in the market. However, we can not forget that this is an aesthetic procedure with some risks. Because it is done in sensitive areas of the body, there are risks of infection that should be taken into account.

Also, always go to a professional with experience and make sure that this person can do a permanent makeup that is natural and realistic - after all, it is permanent! If the result is bad, you will need to wait months or even more than a year for it to disappear completely.
