There are many reasons why people choose cosmetic tattooing, which is the application of natural pigment into the skin. It can be done to enhance appearance, conceal scars or to recreate the appearance of the breast following reconstructive surgery. When done by a skilled practitioner, it is an extremely safe procedure that creates a subtle and natural look.
Juli Moon offers two kinds of cosmetic tattooing: permanent makeup and dermapigmentation. Permanent makeup is a convenient and practical alternative to applying and removing makeup on a daily basis. Dermapigmentation can camouflage scars by making them resemble the surrounding skin. During an initial consultation, Juli will review your health history and talk with you about your needs and expectations.
It is easy to feel comfortable about undergoing cosmetic tattooing in Juli’s Lynn, Ma studio. Juli, a licensed professional with more than 20 years of experience, places the health and comfort of her clients above all else. She uses the sterilization and sanitation procedures recommended by the Society of Permanent Cosmetic Professionals (www.SPCP.org) and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control. Only single-use sterile needles and the highest quality pigments are used.
Permanent makeup is particularly attractive to people with active lifestyles, those who have oily skin, and people who are manually, physically, or visually impaired. It is also a frequent choice of people with alopecia (the absence of hair) or those who have lost body hair due to chemotherapy or radiation treatment. If desired, permanent makeup can be temporarily covered with conventional makeup for the freedom to try new styles or colors. Common procedures are eyeliner, lip color and eyebrow enhancement.
Dermapigmentation is used to camouflage scares from accidents and surgical procedures. Using pigments that match the surrounding skin, Juli can effectively minimize the appearance of scars. Dermapigmentation is also used to reproduce the appearance of the areola and nipple following a mastectomy. When a physician prescribed this procedure because of an accident, injury, or physical malformation, the cost is usually covered by medical insurance.
What to Expect:
While most clients agree that the application of permanent makeup is far more comfortable than they expected, some people do experience discomfort when delicate areas are worked on. People who are concerned about this may want to consult their physician about medication that can be taken prior to the appointment. In addition, Juli is happy to talk to clients about topical numbing agents and use them when appropriate. Approximately one month after the initial procedure, a free follow-up visit will be needed to prefect the lines and color of your permanent makeup or dermapigmentation. Cosmetic tattoos fade slightly over time, and additional visits may be necessary at a nominal charge.
Cosmetic Tattooing:
Eyebrows: One of the most common procedures Juli performs is to fill in sparse or recreate missing brows, freeing clients from the tedium of penciling in new brows several times a day. The finished look is very soft and natural.

Eyeliner: Choose a soft, natural-looking enhancement or a more defined line in one of many styles or colors. Then shower, exercise, work, and swim while looking your best.
Lip Color: Juli can create a lovely, defined shape for your mouth by subtly applying pigment to the colored part of your lips. This gives more definition, corrects unevenness, and adds fullness. It can also minimize the appearance of wrinkles and help prevent lipstick feathering.
