Procedure Notes
WHAT IS SCALP MICROPIGMENTATION?
Scalp micropigmentation is a cosmetic treatment for thinning hair or hair loss. A provider uses small needles to deposit tiny dots of pigment (color) on the scalp
PRIOR TO SCALP MICROPIGMENTATION PROCEDURE
Wash your hair and scalp before your appointment.
When you arrive, your practitioner marks the areas of the scalp that they’ll treat.
If you’re bald, you and your provider may create a hairline based on your facial structure, age, and head shape.
You and your provider choose pigments that match your hair color.
Your practitioner applies numbing cream to the scalp to make you more comfortable.
DURING SCALP MICROPIGMENTATION
A needle will deposit medical-grade pigment on the desired areas of the scalp.
The dots vary in size, angle, and depth to provide a natural, hairlike appearance.
Your treatment may take up to five hours, depending on the size of the treatment area. Most people need three or more treatments, spaced several weeks apart. Each treatment adds more pigment to create the look of thick hair.
HOW LONG WILL IT LAST?
Scalp micropigmentation usually retains its appearance for 5 years, though results vary due to a number of factors.
The pigments used in scalp micropigmentation are permanent cosmetic pigments. They are not the same as tattoo ink, so they should fade gradually over time and create a more subtle appearance as they fade.
It is extremely important to follow all aftercare instructions to help ensure the longevity and efficiency of your tattoo.
