Cartridges (modules) for tattooing

Now permanent makeup needles have become irrelevant since they have been replaced by a more advanced device - cartridges, they are also modules for permanent makeup. The modules are made of high-quality surgical steel, and the housing is made of medical plastic. The main elements of the device:

• container for pigment;
• spring mechanism, smoothing movement and amplitude;
• membrane;
• single or soldered needles.

The cartridges are in sterile packaging, which the PMU artist opens in the presence of the client immediately before the procedure. For each new procedure, a new cartridge is used, which ensures complete sterility, hygiene, and safe work.

Pigments for tattooing and PMU

A pigment for permanent makeup is a coloring liquid composition that is applied to the skin and held in the upper layers of the epidermis for a long period. Over time, the paint breaks down and is completely excreted by the body. Before you buy tattoo pigments, let's look at the main varieties. There are three types of dyes:

• Organic. The composition contains exclusively synthetic components produced in specialized laboratories. Organic pigments are more stable, have saturated shades, and practically do not cause allergies and irritations. In work, such pigments require experience from the tattoo artist, so it is not advisable for beginners to use them. Pigments are ideal for creating a natural powder effect. If you plan a dense paint, you should not use them.
• Mineral. In the manufacture of dyes, elements of iron oxide and other mineral components are used. Mineral pigments are liquid and thick, their shades are more muted. The material is quite easy to use, which is important for a beginner PMU artist. Mineral dyes are convenient to use for hair techniques.
• Hybrid. The composition contains organic and inorganic components. They are distinguished by increased durability, and saturation, are easy to correct and last as long as possible.

What else does a permanent makeup artist need?

Another stage, without which the permanent makeup procedure is indispensable – is anesthesia. Anesthesia for PMU comes in two forms:

• primary;
• secondary.

Primary anesthesia is performed immediately before the permanent makeup procedure. Her main goal – anesthetize the skin and provide the client with maximum comfort. For primary anesthesia, as a rule, special ointments and gels are used, which reduce the sensitivity of the skin within a few minutes. An effective anesthetic used before manipulation is the Depain cream. The drug can be applied to any area: inter-eyelash zone, lips, and eyebrows. Other effective means for primary anesthesia:

• B-CAINE;
• Eye Anesthetic Cream;
• GeLido Anestetico;
• Super Numb;
• Dr. Gritz and others.

Secondary anesthesia is applied directly during PMU manipulations. A local anesthetic is applied directly to the damaged skin. Anesthetic for permanent makeup promotes vasoconstriction and minimizes the risks of post-procedure complications (edema, bruising). For secondary anesthesia, you can use TKTX gel, Sustaine, and Goochie.
