Each SofTap needle is engineered to give artists maximum control, gentle implantation, and predictable healed results.
Hand method needles allow you to feel the skin, adjust pressure in real time, and layer pigment with intention. The result is softer work, less trauma, and beautifully natural PMU.

SofTap introduced the hand method to permanent makeup in 1988, at a time when artists had few tools designed specifically for cosmetic tattooing. Early PMU work relied on adapted tattoo machines — effective, but often aggressive for delicate cosmetic procedures.
SofTap needles changed that.
Designed from the ground up for permanent makeup, SofTap hand tools allow artists to work gently, precisely, and intentionally. Each needle supports controlled pigment placement, even layering, and a calmer healing process for brows, lips, eyeliner, and paramedical work.
Today, SofTap needles continue to be trusted by artists worldwide who value control, skin respect, and natural healed results over automation.
SofTap needles are built for artists who want responsive feedback from the skin, precise pressure control and a more intentional application.
