2025: The 20 Most Common Questions About Permanent Make-up in Munich
Permanent Make-up is more than just a beauty trend – it is an innovative technique that helps you look fresh and well-groomed every day without spending much time in front of the mirror. But what exactly is PMU, how does the treatment work, and what questions should you clarify in advance? Here are the 20 most frequently asked questions and answers about Permanent Make-up in Munich – detailed, honest, and informative.
1. What exactly is Permanent Make-up?
Permanent Make-up (PMU) is a cosmetic technique where pigment is injected into the top layer of the skin using a fine needle. Unlike traditional makeup, PMU lasts for several years and ensures that eyebrows, lips, or eyeliner always look perfect – without the need for daily touch-ups.
2. Which areas can be treated with Permanent Make-up?
At Dollea in Munich, we offer the following Permanent Make-up treatments:
- Dollea Blush Brows: Subtle shading for naturally looking eyebrows.
- Glossy Lips by Dollea: A subtle lip gloss effect for fresh, well-groomed lips.
- Lipstick Effect by Dollea: A bold look focusing on the lipstick effect.
- Dollea Natural Line: Subtle eyeliner lines for a natural look.
- Smoky Liner by Dollea: Soft-shaded eyeliner for expressive eyes.
- Dollea Top & Bottom Line: Eyelash line enhancement for both top and bottom lashes.
3. How long does Permanent Make-up last?
The durability of PMU varies depending on skin type, care, and lifestyle. In general, the result remains visible for 1.5 to 3 years. However, touch-ups can be done at any time to refresh and intensify the colors.
4. Is Permanent Make-up the same as tattooing?
No, PMU is different from tattoos. While tattoos are applied deep into the skin, PMU pigments only penetrate the top layer of skin. As a result, PMU fades over time and is less intense.
5. How does a PMU treatment work?
Each treatment is divided into several steps:
- Consultation: Your wishes and expectations will be discussed in detail. Together, we choose the form and color that best suit your type.
- Pre-drawing: The treated area is precisely outlined so that you can see the result beforehand.
- Pigmentation: Using modern techniques and high-quality pigments, the pre-drawing is refined.
- Aftercare: You will receive care instructions to support healing and maximize the result.
6. Is the treatment painful?
Most clients find PMU to be minimally painful. We use high-quality anesthetics to numb the treated area and make the treatment as comfortable as possible.
7. What are the benefits of Permanent Make-up?
- Time-saving: No more daily makeup.
- Perfect look: Always flawless, whether during everyday activities, sports, or vacation.
- Boosted self-confidence: Imperfections like uneven brows or pale lips become a thing of the past.
- Waterproof: No smudging or staining – perfect for active people.
8. Who is PMU suitable for?
PMU is ideal for:
- People with little time for daily makeup.
- Athletes who want to look good even during training.
- Individuals with sparse hair growth or scars.
- Allergic people who react to conventional cosmetic products.
9. What should I consider before the treatment?
- Avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications like aspirin 24 hours before.
- Refrain from caffeine and nicotine on the day of the treatment.
- Avoid sunbathing, tanning, and intensive facial treatments at least one week before.
10. What care is needed after the treatment?
- The treated area should be kept dry and clean during the first few days.
- Use the recommended care products to support healing.
- Avoid direct sunlight, saunas, and swimming for about two weeks.
11. How long does a PMU treatment take?
The duration depends on the treated area. On average, we need:
- Eyebrows: 1.5–2 hours
- Lips: 2 hours
- Eyeliner: 1–1.5 hours
12. Does Permanent Make-up fade over time?
Yes, the pigments fade over time. Immediately after the treatment, the colors appear more intense, but this will balance out during the healing process. Within 7–14 days, the PMU will reach its final color tone.
13. How many touch-ups are needed?
Usually, one touch-up is necessary, which is performed 4–6 weeks after the initial treatment. This is included in the treatment price.
14. Can PMU be removed?
Yes, there are various methods to remove PMU, including laser treatments or special removers. However, this is time-consuming and should be carefully considered.
15. Are there any risks or side effects?
With professionally performed PMU, risks are minimal. Light redness or swelling immediately after the treatment is normal and typically subsides within a few hours.
16. Can I get PMU during pregnancy?
PMU is not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding, as the skin is more sensitive and the risk of complications increases.
