SPMU stands for Semi-Permanent Makeup, a cosmetic tattooing technique that involves applying pigments to enhance or reshape features such as eyebrows, eyeliner, and lips. This process uses a specialized machine or manual tools to deposit pigment into the skin, creating a long-lasting effect that can last from several months to a few years.
Aesthetics in healthcare and beauty, typically involves non-surgical treatments aimed at enhancing appearance, such as skincare, laser treatments, and cosmetic procedures. This approach focuses on improving the overall look and feel of the skin, often addressing concerns like aging, pigmentation, and texture.
Medical cosmetics, often referred to as medical-grade skincare, involves products and treatments designed to enhance appearance and address specific skin concerns using advanced formulations and techniques. These products typically contain higher concentrations of active ingredients than over-the-counter cosmetics and are often used in conjunction with medical procedures.
Medical cosmetics can include:
- Topical treatments: Prescription-strength products for issues like acne, rosacea, or hyperpigmentation.
- Injectables: Treatments like Botox and dermal fillers to reduce wrinkles or add volume.
- Chemical peels: Procedures that exfoliate the skin to improve texture and tone.
- Laser treatments: Technologies aimed at skin rejuvenation, hair removal, and other concerns.
