HOW TO ACHIEVE THE BEST PIGMENT RETENTION IN YOUR PMU SERVICES

To achieve optimal pigment retention in your PMU (Permanent Makeup) services, it is essential to follow certain expert guidelines. Here Monika Ludwiczak and Kintija Belska, Co-Founders of Everlasting Brows share their expert tips on How to achieve the best pigment retention in your PMU services.

Here are some key factors to consider:

1. Proper Pre-Procedure Preparation:

• Conduct a thorough client consultation to assess their skin type, medical history, and any contraindications that may affect pigment retention.

• Advise clients to avoid alcohol, caffeine, and blood-thinning medications before the procedure, as they can affect the skin's healing process.

2. Skilful Technique and Depth Control:

• Employ precise and gentle application techniques to minimise trauma to the skin.

• Ensure proper needle selection, taking into account the client's skin type and the desired outcome.

• Control the depth of needle penetration, as going too shallow or too deep can impact pigment retention.

3. Quality Pigments:

• Utilise high-quality pigments specifically formulated for PMU procedures. These pigments should be free from harmful ingredients and certified for safety.

• Consider the client's skin undertone and select pigments that will complement their complexion, ensuring long-lasting colour results.

4. Hygiene and Sanitation:

• Maintain strict adherence to hygiene protocols, including the use of disposable needles, gloves, and other single-use items.

• Ensure a clean and sterile environment throughout the procedure to minimise the risk of infection or complications.

5. Post-Procedure Aftercare:

• Educate clients on proper aftercare practices to support optimal pigment retention.

• Advise against excessive sun exposure, swimming, sauna visits, or other activities that may cause excessive sweating or moisture on the treated area.

• Recommend a suitable aftercare routine, including gentle cleansing, moisturising, and the application of a broad-spectrum sunscreen.

6. Follow-up and Touch-up Sessions:

• Schedule follow-up appointments to assess the healing process and address any necessary touch-ups.

• Touch-up sessions allow for adjustments to pigment color and density, enhancing the overall longevity of the results.

Remember, achieving the best pigment retention in PMU services requires a combination of technical skills, attention to detail, quality products, and proper aftercare. By following these expert recommendations, you can optimise the longevity and satisfaction of your clients' permanent makeup.
