Cosmetic Tattooing

Permanent make-up is a state of the art form of cosmetic tattooing. The specialised techniques used from permanent cosmetics are often referred to as ‘micropigmentation.’ The cosmetic implantation technique deposits tiny individual implants of pigment into the dermal layer of the skin.

Permanent make-up also allows you to ‘get up and go’ in the morning, cutting down on long routines with specialist corrective products. This treatment can be used to replace eyebrows that cannot grow back, as well as to correct symmetry around the eyes and lips after a disfigurement.

The Foundation has established a relationship with Karen Betts, who is renowned as one of the top permanent cosmetic artists, to provide treatments to burn survivors. Watch the video below to see Nicole at Karen Betts.

“The tattooing that the Foundation arranged for me was definitely worth doing. Karen Betts really put me at ease and made me feel more comfortable that nothing was going to go wrong and be permanently on my face. She shaped my eyebrows and let me get used to how they looked and then she started. When they were done, they looked very alien but I quickly got used to them, especially when they got lighter over the following days.

Now I cannot imagine how I went 5 years without eyebrows! Thank you so much, it’s little things like this that make such a huge difference, however it is often overlooked and forgotten.

Eternally grateful.”
