To further progress my business I have gone on to train in advanced medical tattooing. I offer 3D Hyper-realistic tattooing for areola and nipple breast scarring after surgery and mastectomy operations. I also offer medical tattooing to camouflage scars caused by trauma, surgery or birth marks. I can also tattoo realistic toenail tattoos for clients who have lost their toenails, and i can create the illusion of toe separation for those clients who have webbed (syndactyly) toes.

So what exactly is Semi Permanent Make-up also known as cosmetic tattooing or permanent make up? Semi Permanent makeup imitates perfectly applied cosmetics, with natural-looking results that can be as subtle or as dramatic looking as you choose! 

The effect is achieved by depositing hypo-allergenic specialist pigments into the upper dermal layers of your skin using a micro sized sterile needle, where they will then remain permanently. The results fade gradually over 1-3 years, with a “colour boost” recommended every 12-18 months after the initial application – to maintain a fresh appearance.
