Micropigmentation Dubai UAE – advantages and benefits
Micropigmentation Dubai UAE is a form of cosmetic tattooing that fades and disappears after 2 -3 years. Non-permanent pigments achieve this with a specific micron count implanted at a specific depth into the skin. This is the main and crucial difference between permanent tattooing, usually associated with body art tattoos.
The most common form of Micropigmentation is Semi Permanent Makeup, followed by Medical Micropigmentation and Hair & Scalp Micropigmentation.
Semi Permanent Makeup
Semi permanent makeup, also known as cosmetic tattooing, uses micropigmentation to implant pigments to mimic makeup in the popular areas of the face. Treatments include eyebrows, eyeliner, lip liner, lip colour and lip blush. Eyebrows are enhanced and reshaped or repaired. Eyeliner is applied as a very subtle lash line or varying thicknesses depending on the individual’s request. Lips can be redefined and given the illusion of a fuller look.
Eyebrow procedures range from individual hair strokes for a very natural look to a dusting shadow powder effect. Whichever look is chosen, the eyebrow can be transformed into a work of art, framing the face and giving you a dramatic or natural and soft eyebrow. Eyeliner can be applied as a subtle eyelash enhancement or a dramatic smokey, sultry eye! Lips can be defined with a simple natural outline or coloured to cover dark lips or give a lipstick effect. The more recent techniques, such as Latino eyes, a glitter eyeshadow effect, and 3D lips or eyebrows, are for the more advanced technician and can give you an amazing look that lasts!
The look and shape are drawn using an eyebrow pencil before applying any pigments. Pigment tone and colour are mixed and applied to the client’s requirements.
Medical Micropigmentation
Micropigmentation Dubai UAE and Medical micropigmentation use the same non-permanent pigments to conceal skin damage or imperfections. The most popular treatments are Scar Removal & Concealment, Tattoo Removal, Vitiligo, Alopecia and Areola Reconstruction.
Scar Removal
For scar removal, a Micropigmentation Dubai UAE process called MCA and Dry Needling is performed on the scar to activate the body’s natural collagen beneath the skin. This flattens the scar and, in most cases re pigments the scar to look like the surrounding undamaged skin.
Skin Camouflage
If repigmentation does not occur through MCA and Dry Needling, then Skin Camouflage is required. Skin Camouflage uses non-permanent pigments to match the skin tone to camouflage the area and make it look like the surrounding skin.
The same Skin Camouflage technique can also be used wherever there is pigment loss to the skin, so is very beneficial to Vitiligo sufferers.
Areola Tattooing
Micropigmentation is used for Areola Tattooing post-surgery. People who have had a breast reduction and the nipple is removed or breast cancer sufferers and the nipple must be removed. Areola tattooing uses micropigmentation to implant pigments to create a fake areola. A natural 3D look can be achieved by applying light and shadow tones.
Tattoo Removal
Tattoo removal uses the same micropigmentation machine and needles; however, the pigment is replaced with a specially formulated removals cream. This cream attaches to the pigment and is naturally expelled from the skin over a few weeks. As the cream is expelled, the pigment is expelled with it.
Hair & Scalp Micropigmentation
Hair & scalp Micropigmentation Dubai UAE is becoming a very popular procedure to conceal baldness or redefine hairlines. The pigment is applied to the area of baldness to mimic short stubs of hair at the skin level resulting in a look of more dense hair at the root level. This procedure is very effective for people with short hair.
