Medical Makeup Specialist Q&A

Medical makeup (also known as medical micropigmentation) is a form of permanent makeup meant for medical application. It can be used in many different ways for many different patients, and medical professionals approve of its practice!

Some patients benefit from medical skin camouflage, which can be used to treat skin conditions such as hypopigmentation. Other patients benefit from medical scar camouflage, which reduces the appearance of scars. There are various medical makeup techniques that can help patients with skin issues due to surgery, injury, or even just the aging process.

Any patient with virtually any type of skin issue can benefit from medical makeup. Chemo patients who might have lost facial hair during their treatments now have options like medical makeup. As well as, women who have had breast surgery can benefit too. Some of the patients we can help at our clinic include:

• Women who have had reconstructive breast surgery and would like to have their areolas restored
• Chemo patients who want to have the look of their eyebrows and/or eyelashes restored
• Burn victims who wish to restore the healthy, natural appearance of their skin
• Patients with vitiligo
• Patients who have undergone hair transplant procedures
• Patients with alopecia areata
• Patients with vision problems
• Patients with conditions such as arthritis that can make it difficult for them to apply conventional makeup
• And many others

Jaudon Sunde is able to provide any type of medical makeup procedure you need. During a consultation with Jaudon, she’ll discuss your medical history and the various options available for you. Some of the common procedures we can provide include:

• Areola restoration – repigmentation or reconstruction
• Brow hair and eyelash restoration – permanent simulation of the lost hair
• Skin coloring – repigmentation of the skin to restore its natural skin tone
• Dry needling – a technique used to break down scars to reduce their appearance
• Scar camouflage
• Hair simulation
• Permanent eyeliner and permanent eyebrows
• Full lip color
• And more

After a procedure with Jaudon Sunde, you will be able to return home! You should expect some swelling in the treated area, but this will subside with icing and ointment. The doctor might recommend that you avoid peroxide or sunlight for a while after your procedure.

For a few weeks, the pigmentation will look a bit darker than your natural skin color, but it will fade and become almost indistinguishable from your natural tone. After that, you can expect the area to look quite natural!
