With the advent of the new permanent makeup technique, the trend towards a natural and as natural as possible effect has taken root. And girls whose tattoos do not conform to modern beauty standards feel uncomfortable and look for ways to improve the look of the old tattoo.

You should know that fixing an old cosmetic tattoo / permanent makeup is not always possible. And it is not a matter of poor craftsmanship of the applied master. The point is in the peculiarities of the pigment used to you before and the depth of its occurrence. To uniquely answer whether you can improve your tattoo, a permanent makeup artist can see your eyebrow, lip, and eyelid. Sometimes it will be enough to look at a photo.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE TO FIX BAD EYEBROW TATTOO?

New eyebrows, eyeliner, and lips will likely look fuller than after the same treatment on girls with clear skin. There are two reasons for this.

  1. You already have pigment under your skin. It has its colour, which will serve as a saturation enhancer for the news coverage, whether we like it or not.
  2. If your old tattooing is saturated or dark, the artist will have to use an even darker colour to overlap it and work not so airy but more densely. Otherwise, it won’t work.

Before old tattoo corection, all professionals should warn you about the effect you should expect​

  • You won’t have much choice from overlapping shades of pigment. The master will be able to determine which coltan to use to cover the old tattoo. And it will most likely be one option, two at the most. The cosmetic tattoo artist can either ‘match’ the colour of the new tattoo as much as possible to the colour of your old tattoo or choose a darker shade to overlap it and thereby wholly renew the colour.
  • Overlaying an old eyebrow tattoo is always done with a darker colour and never with a lighter one.
  • Thin eyebrow threads have long been out of fashion. Unfortunate eyebrow shapes can be corrected mainly by widening them. It would be best if you were prepared that you will have to get used to more comprehensive eyebrows for a while.
  • After covering up the old tattoo with a new one, you will most likely need a correction once it has fully healed. It’difficultsy to cover up an old permanent with a light pudding technique.
  • You should be prepared that the old pigment may come off after a certain period of wearing your new permanent, i.e. after a year or a year and a half. Modern tattooing techniques are superficial. Consequently, the pigment disappears more quickly. Your old, profoundly ingrained stain, however, remains in place.
