LaBina^® pigment inks do not contain any iron oxide pigments as they can cause the original colour of a brow pigmentation to turn orange/red in just a few months. 

If a brow pigmentation is already reddish in colour, in many cases this can be corrected, or at least the appearance can be improved, by being pigmented over several times with our pigment inks. The more often an eyebrow has been over-pigmented with inks containing iron oxide in the past, the more difficult it is for the user to correct the colour.

Modern medicine has developed many different ways to examine the inside of the human body. 

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a procedure that can be used to examine areas of the body in a detailed and precise way with slice imaging. It is one of the most gentle examination methods as, instead of X-rays, it uses a magnetic field which isn't harmful for humans, to create the images. This type of examination is being used more and more frequently because it helps doctors to make the best possible diagnosis. 

Over the past few years, we have heard of many cases where doctors have had to cancel planned MRI scans because they have found out that the patient has a tattoo or permanent make-up with inks that contain iron oxide during a pre-scan consultation.

The reason for this is that the patient's body is exposed to very strong magnetic fields during an MRI scan. 

Pigmentations with inks that contain iron can heat up unpleasantly during an MRI scan and can also cause rashes and minor burns in the area that they have been applied. This is because the magnets heat up the particles containing iron in the pigment inks under the skin and make them vibrate.

With pigmentation with LaBina^® pigment inks, you and your clients can be safe in the knowledge that they do not contain any iron oxide. 

In the event of an upcoming medical examination, you can check the ingredients of our pigments in our detailed analysis reports, which are included in the product’s accompanying papers.

Due to the use of novoxx^® our colours are germ-free. It kills bacteria, yeasts and fungi and has been successfully used in pigmentation dyes since 2004.

novoxx^® is a combination of minerals which have revolutionised the manufacture of safe pigmentation colours. As a micro-fine ground white powder it has various positive features. Studies certify that it is as harmless as an implant material in medicine.

When novoxx^® was first discovered our pigment manufacturer was challenged with the development of a technology for micro-biologically safe permanent make-up colours.

• novoxx^® solves problems which may be related to the long-term storage and conservation of pigments after the flasks are initially opened. Since novoxx^® is a solid, it cannot evaporate. With the reduction of carrier liquid, the concentration of novoxx^® in the bottle increases, which in turn increases its reliable germ-eliminating effect.
• novoxx^® is absorbed by the body without being detected as alien and potentially being rejected.
• We have no knowledge of any allergic reactions to novoxx^® in pigments (as of July 2013).
• The minerals used for novoxx^® are intended to support the healing of the wounds immediately after completion of the pigmentation process. In our daily practice we have found that itching during the healing process is reduced compared with traditional products not containing novoxx^®. This results in less irritation of the skin and visibly more beautiful results.

"Due to additional reflective surfaces which the micro-fine ground white novoxx^®-powder generates in the LaBina^® pigments, brilliance and colour saturation under the skin are slightly enhanced. Free follow-up appointments after a permanent make-up treatment ensure quality and durability.

novoxx^® is an innovative technology that already complies with many applicable legal requirements in Germany and abroad. (as of: 1st July, 2021)"
