Description
The principles today of placing colour under the skin remain the same, however with advances in technology has come an array of varying techniques and methodology. A wide variety of machines and colour pigment is now available to choose from.
The very first electric tattoo machine was designed by a man from New York in 1880 called Samuel O’Reilly. The first recorded eye make-up procedure was performed by an Oculoplastic Surgeon in the USA called Dr. Crowell Beard, who performed an eyeliner procedure as a replacement for the loss of eyelashes.
Dermal Pigmentation, Micro-pigmentation, micro-derma-pigmentation, derma-pigmentation, dermal graphics, and cosmetic tattooing are a few of the alternative known names of Permanent Make-up or Semi-Permanent Make-up which are the more recognised amongst the general public.
In 1979 a lady named Pati Pavlik is noted as being at the forefront of making Semi-permanent make-up tattooing socially acceptable, which has now filtered its way into the modern woman’s life. Pati Pavlik is fondly named the ‘Mother of Permanent Make-up’ and has helped to further change legislation across the USA and Europe.
Since 1979 there have been numerous associations set up solely for Semi-Permanent Make-up Tattooists. The society of Permanent Cosmetic Professionals was founded by Susan Preston and Susan Church in 1990, to ensure high minimum standards of the practice. In 2001 Cosmetech the first Semi-Permanent Cosmetic Trade Magazine was launched.
