Precision Permanent Makeup in Columbus: Wake Up with Perfect Brows, Eyes & Lips

Say goodbye to smudged eyeliner, faded lip color, and sparse brows. Permanent makeup, also known as cosmetic tattooing or micropigmentation, can give you a flawless, “I woke up like this” look 24/7. At Columbus Facial Plastics, our skilled permanent makeup artists use advanced techniques to enhance your natural beauty with precision eyebrows, eyeliner and lip color.

What is Permanent Makeup?

Permanent makeup is a cosmetic technique that uses tattoos to produce designs that resemble makeup. Pigment is deposited into the dermal layer of the skin to mimic the look of:

  • Eyebrow hair like strokes and/or shading for fuller, shaplier brows
  • Eyeliner for defined eyes
  • Lip blushing for enhanced, contoured lips

While not completely permanent (the pigment fades over time), the results can last anywhere from 1-3 years. Periodic touch-ups can help maintain the look.

Our Permanent Makeup Services

Eyebrow micropigmentation

Eyebrow hair strokes and shading are two techniques we use to create the look of fuller, more defined eyebrows. 

 Permanent Eyeliner

Never worry about crooked or smudged eyeliner again! We can tattoo eyeliner along your lash line for subtle definition and fuller looking lashes or a classic eyeliner look. 

Lip Blushing

Lip blushing is a form of semi-permanent makeup that enhances the color and shape of your lips. We can correct slight asymmetry, add subtle volume, and give you a soft flush of color that lasts. Kiss lipstick goodbye!

The Permanent Makeup Process

Your permanent makeup journey begins with a consultation where we discuss your goals and design your custom look. We’ll help you choose the right shade, shape and style for your features.

On treatment day, we apply a topical numbing cream to keep you comfortable. The pigment is then deposited into your skin with a cosmetic tattoo pen. The process takes about 3 hours.

After your appointment, your new makeup will appear darker than the final result. This is normal! The pigment will soften by 30-50% as it heals. Most people experience some mild swelling and flaking for 5-7 days.

You’ll return after 6 weeks for a touch-up to perfect your permanent makeup. Results can last 1-3 years before gradually fading. We recommend annual touch-ups to keep your look fresh.
