Permanent Makeup: A Procedure with Increased Risks
Is it worth undergoing permanent makeup considering it’s a high-risk procedure? What factors contribute to reducing these risks? These are common questions, but finding reliable answers can often be challenging. In this article, we’ll delve into the health-related risks rather than the artistic aspects of the procedure.
Potential Risks of Permanent Makeup Procedures
Unfortunately, it’s impossible to eliminate all risks due to the uniqueness of our individual bodies. Just as some dread pollen season, for others, it’s a delightful time to revel in the scents of spring freshness.
Similar to pollen particles, pigments used in permanent makeup consist of fine components that can potentially trigger allergic reactions or accumulate in the body over time.
Therefore to mitigate this risk, pay attention to:
Whether the specialist recommended an allergy test for the pigment 5-7 days before the procedure.
Whether the specialist provided information on potential risks, pigment removal methods, and compliance with regulatory requirements for the products used.
Furthermore, you can ensure safety by learning about the pigment used by the specialist. Obtain its name and manufacturer and verify it through public sources like Health Inspection, the manufacturer’s website, databases such as RAPEX, Safety Gate, and CTL for reviews, absence from the “blacklist,” compliance documentation, and other valuable information. It might seem complex, but it’s about your health.
Another crucial factor in reducing risks in permanent makeup procedures is the specialist performing it. Consider:
The hygiene products the specialist uses and provides you with (disposable caps, gowns, shoe covers, medical masks, etc.).
Requesting the specialist to provide a document on their permanent makeup education recognized by the government.
The next risk factor is you. Make an effort to follow the specialist’s recommendations:
After the procedure, use specialized cosmetic products to expedite healing, preserve pigment in the skin, and shield it from external influences.
Refrain from tanning, visiting saunas, or consuming foods and beverages that stimulate blood circulation.
