Medical - Cosmetics, Beauty / Micropigmentation treatments
Spanish term or phrase: subtono piel
This part of the text is about possible corrections to be made after an original micropigmentation treament, classified as easy, moderate complicated and extreme. Here are the factors that might cause a moderate change in the colour applied during these permanent make-up treatments.

'Elaboradas (sol, láser, pigmentos inapropiados, subtono piel)'
I think that this means that some underlying skin tone of the client gradually reacts with the colour applied, causing a change in this colour. But what is the term in (UK) English? Any suggestions much appreciated and thank you all in advance. :)

"A: Traces of the pigment will last in your skin indefinitely. The full cosmetic effect will fade in three stages: the first week - losing 30% pigment intensity, after 4-6 weeks the true colour reveals and then slow fading through 1-5 years. Factors like sun, daylight, swimming, own pH, own blood type, skin- cell renewal, skin undertone, area on the face and type of pigment will all effect the rate of fading. "
