Hair Micropigmentation: know more about the procedure

At Cancun Hair Restoration, we are specialists in all types of procedures that help hair restoration and that includes non-surgical treatments such as hair micropigmentation. For this reason, we decided to make a blog where we explain in a little more detail what this procedure consisted of and how it can help you if you have hair loss problems.

This procedure is for many a temporary but long-lasting solution for thinning hair or even its loss. Therefore, hair micropigmentation may be an option for you if you are beginning to notice that your hair is no longer as abundant as it used to be a few years ago.

How is the Hair Micropigmentation procedure made?

Hair loss is something that most, if not all people in the world will experience at some point in their lives. In certain cases, regardless of age, hair loss can start to wreak havoc on anyone. Although it is generally a men’s problem, women are not exempt from suffering from baldness.

Hair thinning and hair loss can be present in each patient at different levels and hair micropigmentation can be the solution for those who have not seen significant changes in their appearance. 

Being a non-surgical procedure, it is safer and you will be able to appreciate the results from the end of the treatment.

Basically, hair micropigmentation consists of creating small dots in different layers and in black tones or the color of your hair with the intention of creating a shadow on the scalp. This style known as pointillism creates depth and definition to the head, giving the hair the appearance of being naturally fuller.

Only a professional has the ability to carry out a procedure like hair micropigmentation, since they have to create spots that have the appearance of a natural hair follicle and can blend perfectly with your skin. Anyone with baldness problems can have this procedure done.

Most of the patients who seek a treatment such as hair micropigmentation tend to have severe hair loss and just want to appear to have more hair. Patients with alopecia or advanced pattern baldness, even patients with cancer or any other disease that causes hair loss.

Although it is not a painful treatment, before starting the hair micropigmentation, the CHR specialist will place an anesthetic on the skin to prevent you from having any discomfort during the procedure. Later, it will be enough for you to take care of your skin while it finishes healing, but it will not take more than a couple of weeks for you to see the results.
