Medical micropigmentation, also known as paramedical tattooing, is a specialized cosmetic procedure designed to correct and camouflage various skin imperfections. This technique involves implanting pigment into the skin to replicate the appearance of hair, even out skin tone, or disguise scars and other blemishes.
The following is a list of medical micropigmentation treatments that we offer. All of these micropigmentation procedures are handled with extreme sensitivity and confidentiality:
Needling is the beauty industry’s best-kept secret for wrinkles, scars, and stretch marks! Skin needling is an all-natural, state-of-the-art micropigmentation procedure, designed to preserve the epidermis while stimulating new collagen deposits. This causes a drastic reduction in wrinkles and rejuvenates the skin. It provides superior results to laser treatments, chemical peels, and other dermabrasion procedures but with less damage to the epidermis. It is also effective in the reduction of stretch marks, acne scars, and raised or hypertrophic scarring. Finally, this procedure provides a real alternative to costly and painful surgeries.
Your permanent makeup artist will begin with an in-depth consultation to learn about your goals and collaborate on a treatment plan. They will help you form a clear picture of the expected results, ensuring the outcome aligns with your goals.
The micropigmentation procedure is performed in one of our comfortable and sterile treatment rooms. Your permanent makeup artist uses a fine needle to administer pigment into the skin, carefully matching the color to your natural skin tone or hair color. Most micropigmentation sessions take around 1-3 hours, with the procedure length depending on the type of treatment.
Medical micropigmentation offers several benefits:
