Hello, I'm interested in Semi-Permanent Makeup at LAHYEON Plastic Surgery. Could you suggest a plan for me?
No booking until you confirm.
Four areas
Eyebrows: the amount, angle, thickness and color of your brows are considered. Gaps are filled and the shape is corrected for a fuller, natural brow with a hair-like texture.
Eyeliner: pigment is placed along the lash line and between lashes, including the inner rim that is hard to draw. This is a sensitive area that needs experience.
Lips: a color is chosen to suit your skin tone, then natural pigment is placed evenly for a fresh lip color. Hairline: an uneven hairline is filled in for a smoother, rounder shape. The change shows right after the procedure, and pain and recovery are short.
Semi-permanent makeup vs tattoo
A tattoo goes into the dermis and stays for life. Semi-permanent makeup places pigment only in the epidermis, lasts about 6 months to 3 years per procedure, and fades gradually as the skin naturally sheds.
The clinic contrasts the two this way: tattoo ink is a chemical pigment that can contain heavy metals, comes in a limited range of strong colors and can oxidize to red or blue over time. Semi-permanent makeup uses certified natural pigments, and the color is chosen to suit your skin, eyes, hair and taste.
Lahyeon uses sterile, sealed single-use needles. Unlike a tattoo, the result can be corrected or adjusted later.
Retouch and planning your trip
A retouch is usually done about 3 weeks after the first procedure to correct and refine the result. Recovery takes about 3–7 days.
If you are visiting Seoul for a short stay, ask at consultation how the retouch can fit your travel dates.

Questions
How long does semi-permanent makeup last?
About 6 months to 3 years per procedure. It fades gradually as the skin renews, and this varies by person.
Does it hurt?
Numbing cream is applied 30 minutes before the procedure to keep pain low.
Do I need to come back for a retouch?
A retouch about 3 weeks later is the usual plan to refine the result. How to fit it into your travel is discussed at consultation.
Will the color turn blue or red like an old tattoo?
The clinic explains that tattoo ink can oxidize and change color, while semi-permanent makeup uses natural pigments in the epidermis that fade gradually as the skin sheds.
Results vary by person.
