MicroArt™:
Delivers far more natural results than permanent makeup. After a few years, you’ll have the opportunity to retouch the pigments as needed.  The results are natural and youthful that look so real that no one will know you have had anything done. Its so natural in appearance that even men wear it.

Permanent Makeup:

Often results in a harsh and unnatural look that you will end up being  stuck with. Results often include hair loss, scaring, colors that change over time.

MicroArt™: 

State-of-the-art technology. This level of precision is obtained by equipment created exclusively by MicroArt that costs over $70,000.

MicroArt technology uses a single acupuncture needle as thin as a human hair that vibrates on the dermal layer of the skin 80 to 100 times per second. Therefore the results are extremely precise.  As the acupuncture needle gently vibrates on the outer layer of the skin MicroArt’s nontoxic mineral-based pigments are absorbed.

Permanent Makeup:

Uses standard tattoo equipment, which is available to purchase by anyone without training for $200 and up. Needle: 3 -14 heavy gauge needles are used simultaneously to aggressively puncture the skin.

Because permanent makeup uses a standard tattoo gun, the process of penetrating deep into the skin to place these inks, which are often toxic, will often cause bleeding, bruising, scabbing, scarring and down time. This makes the procedure painful and the results harsh and unnatural in appearance.

MicroArt™:

Only the finest medical grade products are used, sourced from all over the world. MicroArts pigments have been developed by cosmetic biochemist for MicroArt to eliminate the color changes that tend to happen using other forms of inks or pigments.  Pigments are mineral based, non-toxic which cost much more than tattoo or permanent makeup inks. There has never been an allergic reaction to any MicroArt pigment. They are commercially manufactured in Europe.

Permanent Makeup:

Due to the low cost of permanent makeup lower quality products are used. Permanent makeup inks are inexpensive, sometimes toxic, can cause allergic reactions and often fade to orange, blue and green which can actually accentuate the signs of aging.
