Micro art makeup is applied using an acupuncture needle which vibrates on the outer layers of the skin, and allows non toxic mineral based pigments to be absorbed in the outer layer of the skin. The total procedure usually takes around an hour. For patients with more sensitive skin, a topical numbing cream is first applied. First the design is made on the skin with an erasable pencil and then the technician helps the customer choose a natural color. After the customer approves the look and the color the procedure begins.
Areas
• Brows: can be darkened, reshaped or thickened by layering individual hairs on the skin.

Comparison with permanent makeup (tattoos)
• Micro art makeup provides a natural look that can gradually fade over 3 years. Permanent makeup provides a heavier and comparatively unnatural look. It can only be removed with laser surgery or corrected by micro art makeup.
• Micro art makeup uses of non toxic and mineral based pigments. Tattoo inks can be toxic and cause allergic reactions, as well as sometimes fading to green and orange.
