Ways Scalp Micropigmentation Helps You

Hair thinning and loss can be addressed through scalp micropigmentation treatments. Scalp micropigmentation is beneficial for those with head scars, alopecia, overall thinning, or bald patches. Scalp Micro USA’s artists tailor the process to each client’s aesthetic goals to make it appear as natural as possible. Here are some of the benefits of our micropigmentation treatments:

Scalp Micropigmentation Benefits

Hair tattoos are ideal for people seeking non-invasive solutions to hair loss and scar appearance. Scalp Micro USA’s experienced practitioners have helped over 10,000 clients of varying ages, skin tones, and hair colors. Our team has the skills to provide effective micropigmentation results and benefits like:

Matches Current Hair Color

Practitioners are able to match your current hair color or create the color of your choice. To help the treatment blend seamlessly, we assess skin tone and hair color to create a custom pigment blend. We may apply different shades or pigment combinations on various portions of your scalp to match natural growth and density patterns. Paying close attention to these subtle differences on the scalp provides a more blended and natural look.

Effective for Men and Women

Women and men can both benefit from scalp micropigmentation. Female hair loss is typically caused by chemotherapy treatments, trichotillomania, female pattern baldness, or alopecia. Depending on the severity of the loss and the client’s goals, scalp micropigmentation can be a long-term solution. Women and men benefit from applying natural hairline design options, disguising scalp shine or visibility, and creating the appearance of thicker hair. Men and women with long hair can keep their length and return to styling it after the treatment area has healed.

Customizable Treatment Plans

Personalized approaches help Scalp Micro USA practitioners provide the most effective treatment for individuals’ needs. The process begins with a consultation and a scalp analysis. During this consultation, you can discuss concerns, skin conditions, and suitability for treatment with our artists. They will then help you select your pigment and hairline design. All facets of the treatment can be customized to complement your complexion, hair color, and face shape.

Conceals Hair Transplant Scars

If you have undergone FUE or FUT hair transplants, it’s typical to have a permanent scar. Hair doesn’t naturally grow back on scar tissue because the healed tissue doesn’t contain hair follicles. During our scalp micropigmentation process, artists strategically add replicated follicles to the entire surface area of the scar. Placing the pigment in specific locations around the scar creates a blending effect that aids in concealing the scar.

Easy to Maintain

Immediately after treatment, you should follow your practitioner’s aftercare guidelines and recommendations to achieve optimal results. This includes no sweating, scrubbing, shaving or trimming, or sunbathing for the first five days. You can wear a hat, lightly dab away oil and sweat, and sleep on your back or side during the healing process. There is no downtime needed for recovery, so you can return to work immediately, but you may notice a slight redness on the scalp for a few days. Maintenance is minimal after the first five days, but we recommend limiting your sun exposure and applying moisturizer often to protect the skin and pigment from damage. Follow-up sessions are only needed every four to six years to address possible fading or changes in skin tone.

Works With Other Treatments

Scalp micropigmentation can be safely combined with other hair restoration treatments. During the treatment period and for 30 days after the last tattoo session, you should suspend the use of hair growth solutions like topical minoxidil. This helps prevent skin irritation and inflammation and enhances the healing process.

Our Scalp Micropigmentation Process

The micropigmentation process involves artists carefully placing pigment on the scalp. The deposited pigments create the appearance of hair stubble and tiny hair follicles, mimicking a buzz-cut hairstyle. This process is also referred to as scalp tattooing, and while it is a permanent cosmetic solution, it is different from a traditional tattoo. We use specialized equipment and a pointillism technique to create the look of short hair. We deposit the pigment in shallower depths, and no shading or line work is used in the treatment. The pigment we use is formulated specifically for hair recreation, which means it won’t break down into a different color or look too saturated after healing.

At Scalp Micro USA, most tattoo sessions last two to four hours. Clients should expect two to four of these sessions to complete the treatment. After about four to six years, you may notice some slight color fading, which is normal and can be touched up by one of our practitioners.
