Permanent make-up, PMU or cosmetic tattooing is so popular, the number of people with permanent make-up has increased significantly over the past decades. Of course, it is a convenient solution that offers great comfort, time savings and convenience, such as lip touch-ups, lip contouring, permanent make-up eyeliner or eyebrow hair. But permanent make-up when make-up is no longer possible, such as for people with Parkinson’s disease, is less well known. Permanent make-up is a godsend for people with Parkinson’s and many other diseases or complaints.
Permanent make-up is a godsend not only for people with Parkinson’s disease, but also for people with rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disease causing hair growth problems or in cases of skin allergy. The other frequently mentioned advantages, that bleeding mascara is a thing of the past or handy during sports and always looking your best, we know by now. I also see more and more people in my practice for camouflage of scars or sun damage.
And what could be worth more than an experience from a satisfied client struggling with Parkinson’s disease.

“The solution for me, because of my Parkinson’s I shake too much.
I am 79 years old and found a fine solution for my Parkinson’s with permanent make-up. It made me so nervous when I tried to make myself up. Because I shake so much, I only did it for a special occasion. Not that I am such a vanity but I don’t have eyebrows and a line under my eyes makes them say I still look good. I had given up on doing it every day. I couldn’t do it myself anymore and I was also sad about the result. Make-up is not that simple. Meanwhile, once a year my daughter takes me to Janny’s who welcomes us with coffee and an hour later my daughter comes to pick me up again. Every year, Janny updates a bit so we divide it a bit. This also gives me a nice present to ask for my birthday: a gift voucher from Permanent Beautiful.”
