Definition of Permanent Makeup
Permanent makeup, also known as micropigmentation, involves the application of pigments to enhance features such as eyebrows, eyelids, and lips. This process typically uses tattooing techniques to embed the pigments into the skin’s dermal layer, providing semi-permanent results.
Definition of Permanent Cosmetics
Dubai Permanent Make Up Dubai UAE – Permanent cosmetics encompass a broader range of procedures beyond traditional makeup applications. While it includes techniques similar to permanent makeup, such as microblading and lip blushing, it also extends to medical tattooing for scar camouflage, areola reconstruction, and scalp micropigmentation.

Dubai Permanent Make Up In Dubai – Perfect Makeup For 3 Years.
The facts and risks of the new micropigmentation trend
Dubai is a city with a workaholic population and – it is more than fair to say – a penchant for self-improvement. It’s little wonder then that women are reaching beyond their make-up bags for lasting beauty solutions, with many believing the answer lies in clinics offering permanent or semi-permanent make-up. So how does it work? According to Harley Street-trained specialist Candice Watson, it’s important to note that they are one and the same: most governments require that the procedure be referred to as permanent. Look at the colour fades over a period of two to three years: the pigment remains under the dermal layer of the skin (visible only using a microscope).
Based in Dubai
Based in Dubai for the last three years, Watson has seen clients in the LCAS cosmetic surgery clinic in Dubai Healthcare City and is also the specialist for cosmetic tattoos at the Burj Al Arab. ‘In layman’s terms, it’s a tattooing process, but the difference is that we don’t use indelible inks, which are blue-based inks, and it doesn’t go deeply into the skin, hence why it’s called micropigmentation. It goes just underneath the dermal layer, and the pigments fade over time and don’t leave that horrible bluey mark you see around a lot in Dubai,’ she explains.
Though it has recently become illegal for the procedure to be performed in salons and spas across Dubai, it is still legal in cosmetic surgery clinics. Watson explains that people should be vigilant when choosing a clinic, as there are places where you can wind up paying over the odds for an unfinished job or, even worse, a botched one. If done correctly, Watson explains that micropigmentation should ‘enhance what you’ve got, rather than be a complete replacement for make-up.’
Block Brows
The average price you will pay for treatment is Dhs3,000 (though the smallest and cheapest treatment Watson herself does is a beauty spot, which comes in at Dhs1,000). Following a top-up three to four weeks later, you can expect the results to last two to three years. ‘With the eyebrows, you put hair strokes in so they look natural instead of a block colour,’ says Watson. ‘With lips, the most popular are natural and blush colours, and with eyeliner, you enhance the eyes by putting colour through the lash area to make the lashes look thicker.’
Mr Spock Style Brows
Of course, it doesn’t always go to plan; this is where her warnings come in. ‘I’ve had people come to me with lip liner that’s virtually up their nose, they’ve gone way over the lip line, and it looks really bad, I’ve had people come in with blue eyebrows that are sticking up Mr Spock-style, and I’ve had a lady who originally wanted camouflage on her nose, and she ended up with bright green spots all over it, which we’ve had to take out gradually.’ The most common risk with an unskilled technician or someone using old pigments or equipment is coming out with a very bad look, which you will, unfortunately, be stuck with unless you can afford to pay the extra to remove it.
Lips and Brows are Popular
Though Watson has helped numerous clients get a bad job right, she reveals the most popular treatment among her clients in Dubai is done on the lips. ‘Eyebrows are always popular because you start to lose them as you get older, but here it’s full lip colour. Many local and Indian ladies have quite a dark pigment in their lips, and they come to me to make them a pinker colour.’ While new trends such as double-coloured eyeliner – where black is applied initially and then a colour such as green, blue or purple is applied above – are growing in popularity among Watson’s former Harley Street neighbours, in the Middle East, there is a growing trend towards micropigmentation being used post-op.
Areola Tattooing
‘Here, the medical side of it is coming into play much more, with things like areola re-pigmenting, which is where people have mastectomies due to breast cancer, and they have a reconstruction, so we tattoo a very realistic nipple on,’ she explains. ‘In that situation, we are giving people their life back.’ Though she insists every procedure is painless, Watson remains adamant people do their research and check the standards of any clinic before going under the needle. With scar camouflaging and colour pigmentation solutions for conditions such as vitiligo available, once you’ve found the right location and the right technician, micropigmentation has the potential to be a whole lot more than make-up.
