Is Your PMU Fading?

PMU color correction is a specialized treatment designed to neutralize and improve unwanted or faded pigment in the brows, lips, or eyeliner. It is ideal for correcting color shifts, uneven tones, or previous work that no longer suits your desired look.

 

This process uses color theory to apply an opposing corrective shade that softens and balances the unwanted pigment. Your artist will also assess your skin tone, undertone, skin type, and existing pigment to ensure the correction blends as naturally as possible.

 

Color correction is performed gradually and may require multiple sessions to achieve the best result. Because this treatment involves advanced shading techniques, it should only be performed by a trained and experienced professional for safe and effective outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, this is one of the most common reasons for color correction. By using the opposing tone on the color wheel, unwanted shades such as grey, red, or blue can be neutralized and softened for a more natural result.

Not necessarily. The goal is not to darken the area but to balance and neutralize the unwanted color. In many cases, the result actually looks softer and more natural than before.

Yes, color correction is often a great alternative to removal when the shape is still workable but the color is incorrect. It can save time, reduce trauma to the skin, and avoid the full removal process.

Because pigment sits at different depths in the skin and heals differently on every client. Correcting in stages allows the artist to adjust the tone safely and avoid over-saturating or creating a new color issue.
