Medical Tattooing

What is the Medical Micropigmentation?

Medical Micropigmentation (medical tattooing) is a procedure that uses custom chosen colour pigments that are applied to the skin.

This restores a natural colour that may have been lost due to trauma or surgery. It works well for areola and nipple restoration, skin discolorations, facial hair loss and scar camouflage.

Frequently asked questions

Who can benefit from medical micropigmentation?

This treatment is suitable for individuals looking to conceal scars, burns, or stretch marks, as well as those with medical conditions such as alopecia or vitiligo. It is also beneficial for post-surgical patients, including those who have undergone mastectomy and wish to restore the appearance of the areola. A consultation with a trained practitioner is necessary to determine suitability.

How long does medical micropigmentation last?

The results of medical micropigmentation are long-lasting but not permanent. Depending on factors such as skin type, lifestyle, and sun exposure, the effects can last anywhere from 2 to 5 years before a touch-up may be required. The pigment will gradually fade over time, so periodic maintenance sessions are recommended to keep the desired look.

Is the procedure painful?

Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. A topical numbing cream is usually applied beforehand to reduce sensitivity. The level of discomfort varies depending on the treatment area and individual pain tolerance, but most people describe it as a mild scratching or tingling sensation.

Are there any risks or side effects?

Medical micropigmentation is generally safe when performed by a trained professional. However, some common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and minor scabbing. In rare cases, allergic reactions or infections can occur, so it is essential to follow aftercare instructions and choose a reputable practitioner.
