Not a hate post β just educating π
Iβve recently seen a lot of mis-information around choosing a PMU artist based solely on them being a registered nurse β with the assumption that this automatically makes the service safer or better.
PMU is a cosmetic tattoo procedure, not a medical treatment. All qualified PMU artists β regardless of background β are trained through accredited PMU courses that cover hygiene, safety, skin anatomy, and proper technique.
The term βnurse-led clinicβ can imply medical oversight or clinical decision-making, which isnβt actually required or used in cosmetic tattooing.
What truly determines the quality and safety of lip blush is:
β¨ proper PMU training
β¨ consistent practice
β¨ experience on real clients
β¨ and most importantly β healed results
When choosing a PMU artist, always look at their portfolio, healed work, and experience, rather than titles alone π€
