Trichopigmentation
A modern, fast and painless solution to the problem of hair loss is a procedure of trichopigmentation also known as scalp micropigmentation.
Optimally suited to men and women who want to mask complete or partial hair loss with a hair loss tattoo, get rid of bald patches, even out their hairline with a hairline tattoo, hide scars from injuries and operations in the zone of hair growth; and, therefore, to regain self-confidence and comfort.
This unique procedure is based on the technology of inserting pigment into the upper layers of the scalp with a special thin needle, which allows for the imitation of the appearance of hair follicles or individual hair. Scalp pigmentation specialist manually draws on every hair, given the hairline, color and density of hair, so that the result looks as natural as possible.
The pigment used during the procedure is developed specifically for advanced tricho pigmentation purposes, is certified and does not cause allergic reactions. Due to the fact that the pigment is designed specifically for this procedure, it does not fade or bleed. The color range of the pigment is very wide, which allows you to select the color for the area that requires scalp micropigmentation (hairline, vertex, etc.) as accurately as possible.
The hair pigmentation cost and duration are determined individually based on the size of the area that requires treatment.

How to prepare for the scalp tattoo procedure?
There is a number of recommendations before you go seeking our the closest scalp micropigmentation near you. These must be completed for its optimal implementation and quality result afterwards.
-
The hair tattoo for men and women both can be conducted only if the scalp is not inflamed. It should not have: rashes, inflammatory foci, sunburn, wounds.

-
For two weeks after the micropigmentation of hairline or other parts of the scalp, antibiotics should not be taken, otherwise the body will reject the pigment.
-
10 days before the procedure, refrain from sunbathing and indoor tanning (if you have a bright intense sunburn, you will only be able to schedule an appointment after your skin returns to its natural shade, which will allow the specialist to select the correct pigment tone).

Do not consume alcohol 24 hours before the procedure, as well as stimulating drinks (coffee, strong tea, caffeinated products, Coca-Cola, Pepsi, energy drinks), refrain from using skincare products, hair growth serums, and do not consume heavy, spicy food.
