Pristine Spas opened in Lake Nona on Narcoossee Road in 2022 to serve one of the most demanding clientele in Central Florida. Our Lake Nona location offers eight semi-permanent makeup services — powder brows, microshading, lip blushing, permanent eyeliner, scalp micropigmentation, areola restoration, and PMU correction. PMU is the highest-skill service in beauty and the stakes are the highest — our lead artist took first place at a worldwide PMU competition in New York, and Lake Nona clients choose Pristine specifically because that credential matters.

Who We Are — Lake Nona

Lake Nona isn’t a normal zip code. Surgeons, nurses, researchers, executives, pro athletes in training, and families who moved here for the schools and the standards. They know what good looks like — and they don’t come back when it isn’t.

PMU is where this matters most. Bad PMU is on your face for years. Good PMU looks like you, only better — permanently. Lake Nona clients who do their research end up at Pristine because they care about the credential, the process, and the consistency of the result.

If you’re local to Lake Nona, Laureate Park, Medical City, Narcoossee, Moss Park, or anywhere along the 417 corridor — this is your spa.

What Makes Pristine PMU Different

Award-winning artistry.

Our lead PMU artist won first place at a worldwide PMU competition in New York. That’s the credential. It’s not marketing — it’s years of mastery on a global stage, brought to you.

Skill compounds — and you see it.

PMU work done by an elite artist looks natural, heals evenly, wears beautifully through years, and fades cleanly. PMU done by a mediocre artist doesn’t. You’ll live with the result every day. Pay for the artist, not the price point.

Sterile, single-use everything.

Fresh needle cartridges for every client. Fresh pigment. Fresh work surface. No reused anything. This is a non-negotiable standard that half the PMU industry cuts corners on.

Pharmaceutical-grade pigments.

We use premium, hypoallergenic pigments formulated specifically for permanent cosmetics. Not tattoo ink, not gray-market imports. The right pigment is the difference between beautifully aged results and blue-green disasters five years later.

Digital machine technique.

Our PMU work is performed with modern digital rotary PMU machines — consistent depth, minimal trauma, better healing, cleaner lines. The result is natural, not stamped.

Proper consultation + mapping.

Every PMU service starts with mapping and color matching. We don’t put permanent ink in your skin without a full design approval. You see the drawn shape before anything becomes permanent.

Touch-up included in most services.

PMU requires a 6–8 week touch-up to finalize the result. That’s built into most packages — we don’t charge extra for finishing your own work.

Other Semi-Permanent Makeup Services

In addition to the PMU services our Lake Nona artists perform daily — Microblading, Lip Blushing, and Permanent Eyeliner — our Lake Nona team offers a broader menu of specialty cosmetic tattooing and corrective work. All artists at Lake Nona are certified in modern pigment technology and color theory; our lead PMU artist holds a first-place finish from a worldwide PMU competition in New York City.

Powder Brows

A fully shaded, ombré-style eyebrow technique creating the look of polished, filled-in brow makeup — soft and faded at the front, fuller and more defined toward the tail. Heavier and more defined than microshading, completely different from microblading (no hair-stroke simulation; shading only). At our Lake Nona location, this is a popular pick for clients wanting a clean, made-up look without daily application, clients with oily skin where microblading doesn't hold, and clients whose natural brows have minimal density to start with. Heals vivid initially and softens to final color over the following few weeks. Performed by Lake Nona certified PMU artists.

Microshading

A semi-permanent eyebrow technique that creates a soft, powdered, filled-in finish — similar to the look of pencil or powder makeup, lasting one to three years. Different from microblading: microshading layers tiny pigment dots to build gradient color and soft definition rather than mimicking individual hair strokes. Lake Nona clients frequently choose microshading for one of three reasons: oily skin types that cause microblading strokes to blur over time, thin or sparse brows that need more visual density than strokes can deliver, or a personal preference for a more makeup-like finish. Performed by Lake Nona certified PMU artists familiar with the technique.

Permanent Makeup Repair

Corrective work for permanent makeup that's faded poorly, healed the wrong color, was placed incorrectly, or shifted shape over time. Lake Nona clients most often arrive with brows that have healed gray, blue, or red instead of brown; lip blush that's shifted orange or pink instead of holding natural tone; or eyeliner that's migrated or thickened beyond its original placement. Our PMU artists work with color-correction pigment technique, careful re-layering, and in some cases a referral for partial tattoo removal before re-pigmentation when the existing work is too saturated to correct directly. Starts with consultation to determine the right approach.

Full Lip Tint

A semi-permanent makeup treatment that deposits soft, buildable pigment across the entire lip to restore color, define the border, and correct natural paleness or uneven tone. At Lake Nona, your artist maps lip shape and matches a shade to your undertone, then saturates color evenly for a your-lips-but-better finish that reads natural and holds through coffee, meals, and workouts. Ideal for clients with faded, asymmetrical, or naturally pale lips who want to wake up with color already done — no daily product, no touch-ups. Results settle over a short healing window and last one to three years. Available at our Lake Nona location.

Scalp Micropigmentation

A specialty cosmetic tattooing service that creates the appearance of denser hair on the scalp through thousands of tiny pigment dots placed to mimic the look of stubble or short hair follicles. Used to camouflage thinning, fill in receded hairlines, conceal hair-transplant or injury scars, or create the look of a tightly cropped buzz on a bald scalp. Pigment is matched to existing hair color or to the client's desired finished appearance — the technique works across all hair colors and any sex. At Lake Nona, this is typically delivered as a multi-session build to develop natural-looking density and variation. Performed by Lake Nona PMU artists.

Areola Restoration

A restorative cosmetic tattooing service for clients who've undergone mastectomy, breast reconstruction, or other surgical procedures affecting the breast. The technique uses 3D shading, custom pigment matching to skin tone, and detailed micro-pigmentation to recreate natural-looking areola color, dimension, and visual texture. For many of our Lake Nona clients — particularly those navigating cancer reconstruction through Medical City partnerships — this work represents the final step in a long restoration journey. Performed in a private, unhurried setting by Lake Nona artists with specific restorative training. Consultations include reference review, pigment matching, and a thorough walkthrough of the healing process.

What Semi-Permanent Makeup Can Do for You

  • Save 15–25 minutes every morning — no more brow pencil, brow gel, lip liner, lipstick, or eyeliner
  • Look put-together without effort — you wake up looking like you
  • Correct asymmetry — uneven brows, thin or faded lips, asymmetric lash lines that makeup can only cover
  • Rebuild what’s been lost — sparse brows, pale lips, faded lash lines, areolas after surgery, hair lost to alopecia
  • Survive water, sweat, sleep, tears — PMU doesn’t smudge, transfer, or wash off
  • Photograph beautifully — consistent color and shape in every photo
  • Restore confidence — especially for medical restoration clients (areola, scalp), the emotional impact is real

Time saved, definition restored, confidence rebuilt — every day, for years.

Who Comes to Pristine for PMU

  • Women tired of daily makeup application
  • Clients with sparse, over-plucked, or uneven brows
  • Aging clients whose lip color has faded or whose brow hair has thinned
  • Brides preparing 3–6 months before a wedding
  • Clients with vision problems who can’t apply eyeliner anymore
  • Medical clients post-mastectomy, post-chemo, or post-surgery
  • Men and women with thinning hair, scar camouflage needs, or full hair loss
  • Clients with PMU from other artists looking for correction or repair
  • Professionals who need a consistent, polished look without effort
  • Athletes and active clients who can’t maintain makeup through training

The PMU Process — What to Expect

Consultation & design.

Your artist maps the shape to your face — brow bone, facial proportions, symmetry, color matching to your natural tone. Nothing happens until you approve the drawing.

Numbing.

Topical anesthetic applied before and during the procedure. Most clients describe the sensation as mild scratching — not painful.

First session.

The pigment is deposited in precise strokes or shaded passes depending on service. Takes 2–3 hours for most services.

Initial healing (7–14 days).

Color will look dark and bold initially, then soften dramatically as the skin heals. Do not judge the result until at least week 4. This is the #1 misunderstood part of PMU.

Touch-up (6–8 weeks).

A second session to perfect color saturation, balance shape, and address any areas that didn’t take evenly. This session is when the final result is locked in. Most packages include this touch-up.

Annual maintenance (optional).

Color softens over time. Most clients come back every 12–18 months for a refresh. Without maintenance, PMU fades gradually over 1–3 years.

Pre-Treatment Prep

  • No caffeine, alcohol, or blood thinners 24 hours before
  • No Accutane for 6 months, no retinoids for 5 days before
  • Avoid sun exposure and tanning for 2 weeks before
  • No Botox or filler in the area for 4 weeks before
  • Discontinue fish oil, aspirin, ibuprofen 48 hours before (if medically cleared)
  • Come in with clean skin — no makeup in the treatment area
  • Eat before your appointment — PMU sessions are long

Post-Treatment Care

  • Keep the area clean, dry, and moisturized with the aftercare ointment we provide
  • No water, sweat, makeup, or skincare on the treated area for 10 days
  • No sun, tanning, saunas, pools, or hot showers for 2 weeks
  • Do NOT pick, scratch, or peel — the pigment comes with it
  • Sunscreen SPF 30+ once healed, every day, for the life of your PMU
  • Schedule the touch-up at 6–8 weeks — do not delay past 10 weeks or the touch-up is significantly harder

Who Is (and Isn’t) a Candidate

Good candidates

  • Healthy adults 18+
  • Clients with realistic expectations and a consultation-first mindset
  • Clients willing to follow pre- and post-care protocols
  • Most skin tones and types (artist will confirm at consultation)

Not candidates (or must wait)

  • Pregnant or breastfeeding clients
  • Clients on Accutane within the past 6 months
  • Clients with active skin conditions in the treatment area (eczema, psoriasis, active acne, cold sores)
  • Clients on blood thinners without medical clearance
  • Clients with keloid scarring history
  • Diabetics with uncontrolled blood sugar
  • Active chemotherapy patients (must be cleared by oncologist post-treatment)
  • Clients under 18

If you’re not sure whether PMU is right for you, the consultation is the first step. We’ll tell you honestly.

What Our Clients Say

Powder brows at Pristine Lake Nona. I researched for six months before booking. The artist’s credential and portfolio convinced me. Result: flawless healed brows that look exactly like me on my best makeup day — permanently.

Sarah P.

Lake Nona

Lip blushing. I’m a Lake Nona real estate agent and I’m in front of clients constantly. Having my lips look perfect in every meeting without thinking about it has been unreal. The investment already paid off.

Diana J.

Lake Nona

Scalp micropigmentation for diffuse female thinning. Pristine Lake Nona’s artist understood exactly what I wanted and delivered. Nobody can tell — they just think my hair looks fuller. Emotional five stars.

Hannah T.

Lake Nona

Permanent eyeliner. Best decision I’ve made for my daily routine. Subtle lash line work — looks like I’ve always just slept well. Worth every dollar.

Monica A.

Lake Nona

Areola restoration post-mastectomy. The artist at Pristine was gentle, skilled, and understood this wasn’t cosmetic — this was restoration. Thank you for what you do.

Frequently Asked Questions

1–3 years depending on the service, your skin type, sun exposure, skincare routine, and individual biology. Oily skin tends to fade faster. Consistent SPF extends results significantly.

Topical numbing is applied before and during the procedure. Most clients describe it as mild scratching or pressure — not painful. Lip blushing is the most sensitive; scalp micropigmentation and brows are the easiest to tolerate.

Consultation covers it. Powder brows give a soft makeup-look finish. Microshading adds hairstroke detail. Microblading is the most natural but fades fastest and doesn’t work on all skin types (oily and mature skin often don’t hold microblading well). Your artist will recommend what works for your skin.

Nothing becomes permanent until you approve the drawn design. We map, show, adjust, and only proceed once you’re happy. That said — trust the artist. Our philosophy is anatomy-first. If you bring in a shape that won’t work on your face, we’ll tell you.

No. PMU is deposited more shallowly than body tattoos, uses different pigments, and is designed to fade gracefully over 1–3 years. Done well, it looks like perfectly applied makeup — not like tattoo ink.

No. We defer all PMU services until postpartum and post-nursing.

Bring it to a consultation. We may be able to correct, reshape, or color-correct it. Severe cases may need laser removal first — we’ll tell you honestly at the consultation.

Absolutely. Female SMP for diffuse thinning, postpartum hair loss, and alopecia is one of our fastest-growing services. The technique is different from male SMP (designed to blend with remaining hair rather than create a shaved look) and our artist is trained in both.

Some insurance covers it as part of post-mastectomy reconstruction. We can provide documentation for your insurance review. We treat this as a medical service and the consultation is always discreet and confidential.
