Permanent Makeup Removal in Portland

5 clinics · ranked by rating & reviews · updated 2026

Permanent makeup removal covers the wider PMU world - lip blush, eyeliner tattoos, micropigmentation and older cosmetic tattooing - and it is a more specialized corner of the removal market than body tattoos. Cosmetic pigments behave differently from tattoo ink, so clinics that regularly handle PMU tend to advertise it as a distinct service. Pricing lands in a similar band to brow work: roughly $150-400 per session, with multi-session courses the norm. Because technique matters more here, weight experience heavily when comparing providers - ask how often they treat PMU specifically, then confirm the all-in package price at a consultation. Results vary by pigment and area.
