ULTRA REALISTIC BEARD MICROGIMPENTATION
A beard Tattoo is a solution for those suffering from a different range of hair imperfections or who would like to outline their beard for a naturally thick, fuller shape. The procedure consists of drawing short, thin hair strokes at a similar angle to the growth of your beard hair, so it resembles hair particles, we match the colour of your beard for a flawless natural look. If your hair grows more or less evenly throughout the facial hair area, but lacks density and volume, you can get the entire area densified with a beard micro-pigmentation. This is a great realistic solution as this is a temporary procedure and will fade after two years or so. Please note that this depends on your skin routine and the products you use daily.
FEMALE HAIRLINE MICROPIGMENTATION
Scalp micro-pigmentation is a cosmetic treatment for thinning hair or hair loss. It’s sometimes also called a hair tattoo, this procedure is done by using small thin needles to deposit tiny dots of pigment (colour) on the scalp. These dots give the appearance of thicker hair. Scalp micro-pigmentation pigments are cosmetic-grade, permanent inks meaning it is performed to hide the thinning areas on your scalp. It may also hide birthmarks or scars. This procedures is suitable for both genders as different methods are used, such as strokes or dots, to fit the style of the existing hair. This treatment is noninvasive and doesn’t require surgery or aesthesia.
SMP can treat the whole scalp area, or only patches. Here’s a list of issues scalp pigmentation can help camouflage:
- Total baldness
- Male pattern baldness
- Receding hairline
- Bald patches
- Scars on the scalp
- Sparse hair

The treatment shouldn’t be exactly painful, but it might be uncomfortable. We will apply a topical anesthetic to the area before start working, which will eliminate the pain.
However, you will still feel certain sensations like pressure, tingling, or slight stinging. Nothing unbearable, but you should know what to expect.
Some areas of the scalp are more sensitive than others, so discomfort may be severe on the temples or the crown, the patch at the very top of the head. Scar tissue can also be more sensitive.

Here’s what to avoid before the treatment in order to for it to go smoothly:
- No sunbathing or tanning for about 2 weeks. Tanned skin is more sensitive.
- Stop using any retinol or Vitamin A products on the forehead and temples one month prior. These thin out the skin and make it bleed more.
- Avoid alcohol, caffeine, ibuprofen, aspirin, and fish oil supplements for at least 24 hours before your appointment.
- Don’t do any scalp treatments at least two weeks before the treatment.
- If you take blood-thinning medication, consult your doctor and see if it would be safe to discontinue the use for a few weeks.

SMP is relatively non-invasive, but the area will need a few days to heal and you need to follow an aftercare routine between sessions. This will affect your washing regime:
- Keep the scalp dry for 3 days. No washing, swimming, sweating, saunas or steam baths.
- Between days 3 and 7, wash your head with water, but no soap or shampoo.
- After day 7, you can wash your head with mild soap.
Avoid the following between sessions, and at least 2 weeks after your last session:
- Touching your scalp
- Sunlight exposure
- Excessive sweating
- Long, hot showers and any steamy environment
- Shaving the head
This is a general guideline for micropigmentation post-care. We will give you more detailed instructions, and you should do your best to follow them as closely as possible.
The treatment is relatively non-invasive, but since it does involve breaking the surface of the skin, it takes a few days for the micro-wounds to close up. After each session, you can expect:
- Some redness and irritation (it will subside within a couple of days).
- The pigments will look too dark, then too light (they take their final color after the healing is over).
- The area will probably feel dry and itchy – We will provide you with a aftercare pack and ointment to relieve this.
- Some scabbing might form over the treated area – do not pick the scabs!
