Touch-ups: the upkeep that keeps your permanent makeup flawless

All permanent makeup lives with your skin: sun exposure, cell renewal and skin type gradually lighten the pigments. A touch-up revives the colour, redefines the shape and corrects micro-irregularities — for brows, lips or eyeliner that always look crisp, without starting from scratch.

When to touch up, and why with us

There are two key moments: the setting touch-up at 4-6 weeks after the first pigmentation (essential — it is part of the result), then maintenance touch-ups every 12 to 24 months depending on your skin and your sun exposure. After examination, we also touch up pigmentation done elsewhere — within the limits of what can be corrected. Diagnosis and quote at the free assessment (prices).

The aesthetic assessment comes first

Every protocol is decided after a free aesthetic assessment: we examine the area, take into account your skin, your aesthetic history and your goal, then give you a quote before any session.

You leave with a clear answer: what is suitable for you, in how many sessions, and at what price. Nothing starts without your agreement.

Who it's for, and when to avoid it

The treatment is suitable for both women and men. It is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, on damaged or recently sun-exposed skin, or in the situations we review together during the assessment.

This is an aesthetic comfort treatment: it does not constitute a medical procedure, a diagnosis or a therapeutic treatment.

Frequently asked questions

Is the 4-6 week touch-up really mandatory?

It is an integral part of the result: the first healing phase lightens the colour unevenly, and the touch-up sets the final look. Without it, the work remains unfinished.

Do you touch up permanent makeup done elsewhere?

Yes, after examination: we assess the remaining colour, the shape and the condition of the skin, and tell you honestly what can be corrected — and what cannot.

How often should I plan maintenance touch-ups?

Every 12 to 24 months depending on your skin, your sun exposure and the area. Brows, lips and eyeliner do not age at the same rate.

Is a touch-up quicker than a full pigmentation?

Yes, considerably: the shape is already there, so it is a matter of reviving the colour and definition. It generally takes about half the time.

What happens if I wait too long?

The pigmentation fades to the point where the full procedure sometimes has to be redone rather than a simple touch-up — the free assessment establishes where you stand.
