What is Permanent Makeup?

Permanent makeup (PMU) uses specialized pigments tattooed into the skin to mimic makeup — brows, eyeliner, and lip color. Modern PMU techniques (microblading, powder brows, nano brows, lip blush) are semi-permanent, lasting 1 to 3 years.

A typical appointment takes 2 to 3 hours, including mapping, numbing, and the actual pigmentation. A 4 to 8 week touch-up is standard and almost always included in the initial price because pigment retention is never 100% on the first pass.

PMU results fade over 1 to 3 years depending on your skin type, skincare routine, and the technique used. Patients typically return for color refreshes every 1 to 2 years.

How much does Permanent Makeup cost in Philadelphia?

PMU pricing in Philadelphia typically ranges from $550 to $1,320 depending on the service (brows, eyeliner, or lips) and the artist's experience. Most prices include a mandatory 4 to 8 week touch-up.

What to ask your provider

Frequently asked questions

How much does permanent makeup cost in Philadelphia?
Permanent makeup pricing in Philadelphia ranges from $550 to $1,320 depending on the service. Microblading averages $400 to $900, powder brows $500 to $1,000, lip blush $600 to $1,200. Most prices include a 4 to 8 week touch-up.
How long does permanent makeup last?
Results typically last 1 to 3 years depending on your skin type, skincare routine, and the technique used. Oily skin holds pigment for shorter periods. Most patients book a color refresh every 1 to 2 years.
Does microblading hurt?
Topical numbing cream is applied before and during the procedure. Most patients describe it as a scratching sensation rather than sharp pain. Pain tolerance varies, but it is generally well tolerated.
What is the difference between microblading and powder brows?
Microblading creates individual hair-stroke marks with a manual blade — best for patients with dry skin and sparse brows. Powder brows use a machine to deposit soft pigment dots that look like a shaded brow pencil — better for oily skin and more dramatic looks. Combination brows blend both techniques.
Is permanent makeup safe?
Permanent makeup is generally safe when performed by a licensed, trained artist using FDA-approved pigments and sterile equipment. Allergic reactions are rare but possible — always ask about a patch test if you have sensitive skin.
