What is Cosmetic Tattooing?
Cosmetic tattooing, often referred to as semi-permanent makeup, involves the careful placement of pigment into the skin to enhance facial features. Treatments are designed to replicate the appearance of makeup while maintaining a natural finish.
Unlike traditional tattoos, cosmetic tattooing uses specialised techniques and pigments that are tailored to the face. The results gradually soften over time, allowing adjustments to be made as your preferences or features change.
Each treatment begins with a consultation, where shape, colour and technique are carefully selected to achieve the most appropriate result for you.
