Permanent makeup at a clinical standard

Permanent makeup, also known as cosmetic tattooing or micropigmentation, deposits pigment into the skin using a fine needle device. The results are intended to last. That means the assessment before treatment, the pigments used, and the skill of the practitioner all have long-term consequences for your appearance.

At Changes Clinic, our permanent makeup artist works within a CQC-registered clinical environment at 1000 Lakeside, Cosham, Portsmouth. CQC registration sets the standard for hygiene protocols, equipment sterilisation, product sourcing and client safety. Our artist has specialist training in facial anatomy, colour theory and corrective work, and carries out a detailed consultation before any treatment is planned.

The consultation covers your desired outcome, your natural colouring, your skin type (which affects how pigment heals), and any previous permanent makeup that might need correcting or working around. A patch test is performed to confirm there is no adverse reaction to the pigment. Only then is treatment scheduled. You can find more about the full treatment range on our permanent makeup service page.

What we treat

We offer permanent makeup for eyebrows (including microblading, powder brows and combination brows), eyeliner (upper and lower), and lip liner or full lip blush. Eyebrow treatments are the most commonly requested, particularly for clients who want definition, symmetry or the appearance of fuller brows.

All treatments are tailored to your natural colouring and facial features. Our artist designs the shape before any pigment is applied, and client approval is required before proceeding.

Very happy with my consultation. I got the answers I was hoping for and I will soon be booking myself in for a quick and easy mole/sun spot removal. I now have a new understanding of what the problem is and what has caused it. Thank you.

I went for an ultrasound scan due the NHS appointment waiting time was a longtime away, the service I recieved from Andrea was excellent, second to none, Andrea explained everything including the results of the scan straight afterwards.

I’ve suffered with rosacea for several years and have tried all sorts of creams, skincare routines and products, but nothing really made a lasting difference. Looking after my skin and being mindful of my diet definitely helps to keep it under control, but IPL at Changes Clinic has made the biggest difference by far. The redness in my face has reduced so much, and even when I do get a flare up, it’s nowhere near as bad as it used to be because the underlying redness has improved so much. Everyone at Changes Clinic has been friendly, professional and really knowledgeable. They’ve always taken the time to answer any questions and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. I’d happily recommend Changes Clinic to anyone who suffers from rosacea and is thinking about IPL. It’s made a huge difference to my skin and has given me so much more confidence.

It’s the first time I’ve done something like this. What a lovely place & people. Very kind, polite & efficient. Very impressed with my procedure, obviously, it hasn’t healed yet, but will definitely be back for more treatment & also considering other treatments too. Well impressed and everything was explained as the treatment was carried out, pleasantly surprised, thank you so much for taking such good care of my skin. Lee B

I had PRP Hair Treatment, with Sumayiah, she is very friendly, she takes the time to explain the procedure and really makes sure to focus on target areas. I have had 2 treatments so far and I already see a difference in my hair density and texture. She can use a gun or syringe, the syringe goes deeper and achieves better results, so its worth asking for the syringe method. I combined my PRP with Calecim serum and that gives an even greater boost. So I recomend you sign up and ask for a booking with Sumaiyah, you'll be very happy that you did..

One of the best decisions I’ve made for my skin! The treatments are effective, safe, and handled by experienced professionals. I struggled with acne for years, and after visiting this clinic, I finally see clear and healthy skin. The staff always follows up after treatments, which shows how much they care about their clients’ progress. Their attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction is truly impressive. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone who wants real results and excellent service.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere with great staff. My lazer hair removal was undertaken by two very capable proffessional young women Kelly and Surmaiyah. Both demonstrate constant care and ensure this not always comfortable experience is as pleasant as possible. The facility is immaculately clean and there is excellent visitor free parking available. I have no hesitation in recommending the clinic to others and whilst I can only comment on the treatments I have received to date I will be availing myself of some of the others services offered.

I am so glad I visited the Changes Clinic today for an upper abdominal ultrasound. I was a nervous wreck as I have a bit of a phobia of scans & Andrea was just brilliant with me. So reassuring, she went above & beyond with careful detailed descriptions, even went over some areas twice just for extra reassurance. I left smiling with a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I have already recommended to a friend & highly recommend to anyone experiencing symptoms they’d like some extra peace of mind for. Was also really easy to book & communication excellent throughout. Thank you so much!!

I’ve been attending changes for facial hair removal for about 6 months now and I can honestly say it’s been one of the best and easiest experiences for me. Sumaiyah has been amazing through every step. From consultation to our current progress. She shows great professionalism, compassion, consideration -especially when I’m having a bad pain tolerance day- and is very meticulous in which the results are to show for it. Every appointment I get a little nervous and Sumaiyah has always put my nerves at ease and worked at a pace that suits me and my needs. I’m very thankful to work with her and be attending changes clinic. I would recommend their treatment. The staff are very welcoming. Adriana Verrier :) .

I had an amazing experience — very friendly and welcoming from the moment I arrived. She was super helpful, incredibly knowledgeable, and truly professional throughout. She made me feel completely at ease. Such a down-to-earth lady that you can feel genuinely comfortable with. Her prices are so reasonable and very affordable too. I highly recommend Andrea

Chloe was very well informed and helpful. There was probably too much information to absorb in the time span, and more published literature would be helpful (FAQs, prices, offers, medical considerations etc)

Common questions

How far is Changes Clinic from Alton?

Our clinic is at 1000 Lakeside, Cosham, Portsmouth. From Alton, the drive takes approximately 40 to 45 minutes via the A31. Free parking is available at the clinic, and there is no time pressure on your arrival if traffic is heavier than usual.

Is a consultation required before permanent makeup?

Yes. The design, colour matching and patch test all take place at the consultation, which must happen before your treatment appointment. Permanent makeup is exactly that, and the preparation stage is where we get the details right. The consultation and patch test are free and typically take around 30 to 45 minutes.

How long does permanent makeup last?

Permanent makeup fades over time as the pigment breaks down and the skin renews itself. Most clients find their results last between 1 and 3 years, depending on their skin type, sun exposure, skincare habits and the specific pigment used. Lighter pigments and oilier skin types tend to fade faster. A colour refresh appointment extends the life of the result.

What makes Changes Clinic different from a beauty salon or non-clinical provider?

Permanent makeup involves breaking the skin and depositing pigment, which carries infection risk if hygiene standards are insufficient. Our CQC-registered clinic meets the independent standards set by the Care Quality Commission for exactly this kind of treatment. Our practitioner has specialist training in facial anatomy and corrective work. Many salons and home-based practitioners offer permanent makeup without the regulatory framework that protects clients in the event of an adverse outcome.
