What is a PMU Touch-Up?
A PMU touch-up refreshes existing permanent makeup, brows, eyeliner, or lip blush, as the pigment naturally fades over time. It re-saturates the color, sharpens the shape, and corrects any spots that wore unevenly. Touch-ups fall into two buckets: the mandatory 6-to-8-week touch-up that completes the original procedure, and periodic color refreshes done every one to three years to maintain the look.
A touch-up takes 1 to 2 hours, less than the original, since the shape and mapping already exist. A topical numbing cream is used. It follows the same healing pattern as the original: bold for a week, then lightening to the final tone. Prices are typically lower than a fresh procedure and often depend on how long it has been since your last visit.
Going to your original artist is ideal, since they know the pigment, depth, and design used. If you switch artists, bring records or photos of the original work so the new artist can match technique and color.

- Can you work over PMU done by another artist?

Frequently asked questions
How much does a PMU touch-up cost in Chicago?
A PMU touch-up in Chicago typically costs $180 to $480, less than a fresh procedure. The longer it has been since your last session, the more work is needed and the higher the price. Chicago has a mature aesthetic market with experienced practitioners and strong local demand.
How often do I need a PMU touch-up?
After the mandatory 6 to 8 week touch-up that completes the original work, most people refresh brows every one to two years and eyeliner or lips every two to three years. Oily skin, sun exposure, and exfoliating skincare speed fading and shorten the interval.
Can I get a touch-up from a different artist?
Usually yes, but it is easier and more predictable to return to your original artist, who knows the pigment, depth, and design. If you switch, bring photos and any records of the original work so the new artist can match it and avoid color or shape mismatches.
