Permanently Beautiful

Facial scars leave their mark not only on the skin but on the soul. There is something about our face that more than any other part of our body determines our comfort with ourselves. Perhaps it’s that our face is the window through which others see us. Most see only the reflection in the glass; few come close enough to peer past the surface into the soul. With no knowledge of our depths, we are judged by our face.

Facial scars can be damaging to our sense of self. Even a small scar from a childhood injury or teenaged acne can undermine our self confidence and make us feel ugly when we gaze in the mirror. I know a young woman who had thyroid cancer surgery. Despite understanding the necessity, she was so devastated and embarrassed by the thin scar that slit across her throat that it destroyed the way she saw herself. It did not matter that others saw only a minor imperfection; she saw a monstrosity. For years she wore turtlenecks and multi-strand chokers until she was finally able to come to terms with her appearance.

Cosmetic tattooing performed by an artistically accomplished paramedical tattoo artist like Melany Whitney can permanently hide facial scars and restore your confidence in your natural beauty. Prominent plastic surgeons nationwide frequently refer their patients to Melany to remove the embarrassment of unsightly scars or natural skin imperfections. There is no need to suffer. Cosmetic tattooing can restore your natural beauty.

When people hear the words “facial tattoos” they probably get an image in their head of tribal markings, like those of the Maori people of New Zealand.  For them, facial tattoos were a way of identifying between families, classes and other tribes. Known as “moko” tattoos, they were such a symbol of a person’s identity that they were used as their signatures on documents in the 1800’s when European settlers arrived.  Their technique involved a small chisel and hammer to tap the design onto the face, and caterpillar-ink poured into the fresh wounds. The skin would heal with the tattoos raised, which is thought to have been because of some chemical or bacteria from the caterpillar. 

For us, our faces identify us. We use photo identification to verify that we are who we say we are, and celebrities build their reputations upon their faces. We can use cosmetic facial tattooing to enhance our appearance too. Our reasons may be to bring out our characteristic features or to make sure we always look our best, whether just out of the swimming pool or just out of bed. But lucky for us, the process involved with permanent makeup is much more gentle and hygienic than it was so many years ago.  With an entire spectrum of colors to choose from, your expert Board Certified Permanent Cosmetic Professional, Melany Whitney will make sure that your permanent makeup will be permanently beautiful, natural-looking, and beauty enhancing.
