World of Beauty with the Latest PMU Trends – Part 2

SKIN NEEDLING / COLLAGEN INDUCTION THERAPY

Skin needling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a non-invasive procedure that stimulates collagen production and skin healing. This technique uses microneedles to create tiny punctures in the skin, resulting in smoother, firmer skin.

Key methods include:

• Microneedling
  Microneedling uses a device with microneedles to create controlled injuries on the skin. This stimulates collagen and elastin production, improving skin texture, firmness, and elasticity, and addressing issues like acne scars and fine lines.

 

• Derma Rolling
  Derma rolling involves a tool with small needles to create micro-channels in the skin. This technique enhances collagen production and skincare product absorption, improving the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation.
• Scar Camouflage
  Scar camouflage uses specialised pigments and techniques to blend scars with the surrounding skin. This method helps reduce scar visibility and achieve a more seamless appearance.
  • Stretch Mark Camouflage
    Stretch mark camouflage combines various cosmetic treatments to minimise stretch mark visibility. This typically involves injecting flesh-toned pigments to create an even-toned surface, with precise colour matching.
  • Traumatic & Surgical Scars
    Microneedling is effective for improving the appearance of mild scars from trauma, surgery, or self-harm. This technique works by breaking down scar tissue, stimulating pigment cells, and enhancing skin texture.
  • Blending Techniques
    Scar camouflage techniques involve layering pigments and adjusting needle depth to blend scars with surrounding skin. Skilled PMU artists ensure a natural, integrated look through careful colour matching and texture mimicking.

 

AREOLA REPIGMENTATION

Areola repigmentation restores the natural look of nipples and areolas, especially important for individuals who have undergone breast reconstruction or experienced changes in areola appearance. This technique aims to achieve a realistic and symmetrical look, boosting confidence and appearance.

• Restoring Natural Appearance
  Areola repigmentation employs specialised pigments to recreate the look of nipples and areolas. The PMU artist selects the appropriate pigment shade to match the client’s skin tone and areola colour, ensuring a natural and realistic result.

 

COSMETIC TATTOO REMOVAL

For those dissatisfied with previous permanent makeup, non-laser removal offers a safe and effective solution. This method is painless, avoids skin damage, and ensures quick recovery. The number of sessions required varies based on individual needs.

• Eyebrow, Eyeliner, and Lip Removal
  Various methods exist for removing permanent makeup from eyebrows, eyeliners, and lips. Detailed information can be provided based on specific requirements. Following aftercare guidelines, such as avoiding sun exposure and maintaining cleanliness, is crucial. Always consult a professional before attempting to remove PMU independently.

 

MEN’S PMU TRENDS

Permanent makeup is not just for women; there are PMU trends tailored specifically for men. These trends focus on enhancing masculine features and addressing concerns such as beard definition and scalp micropigmentation.

• Scalp Micropigmentation
  Scalp micropigmentation addresses hair loss and thinning by tattooing tiny pigments into the scalp, mimicking hair follicles. This technique offers a fuller head of hair appearance, restores receding hairlines, and adds density to thinning areas, enhancing confidence and a youthful look.
• Beard Enhancement
  Beard enhancement creates the appearance of a fuller, well-groomed beard by depositing pigment into the skin. This method fills in gaps and shapes the beard, resulting in a more defined and balanced appearance.
