In recent years, one of the most popular terms in the beauty market is "semi permanent makeup", also known as "micro intracellular color insertion", "continuous intensive makeup", etc., and there are also various names such as "American micro permanent makeup", "Japanese beauty makeup", "Korean tattoo makeup", which dazzle people.

The so-called "semi permanent makeup" is actually an improved embroidery technique. In principle, it is an artificial traumatic skin coloring: pigment is planted in the skin tissue to form a lump. Because the epidermis is translucent, the pigment can show the corresponding color through the epidermal layer, so as to cover flaws, display patterns, and beautify. The medical beauty department can use this technology to modify scars, depigmentation, vitiligo and other skin defects.

As the pigment artificially pierced into the skin is related to processing technology, technician operation, human immunity, etc., and there is a certain risk of complications, such as infection, allergy, scar formation, etc., with the treatment of the human immune system, the color will inevitably be inconsistent, and may also occur biochemical reaction and color change over time. Basically, the pigment of this "semi permanent makeup" is absorbed and eliminated by the human body after being maintained for 2-3 years, and gradually fades away.

Expert advice

"Semi permanent makeup" is based on the same principle of artificial transplantation of pigments as traditional embroidery, and some new pigments are selected to cover the skin epidermis and pattern painting. However, pigments are foreign substances after all, and it is impossible to absolutely avoid the risk of infection, allergy and even cancer. Due to the different skill level and depth of the operators, it is difficult to absolutely ensure that the penetration depth is consistent, so it should be considered comprehensively and decided rationally.
