โScalp Micropigmentation is an advanced non-surgical procedure, where natural cosmetic pigments are used to create the idea of a fuller head of hair. The needles used are state of the art and ultra-thin, mimicking real hair follicles. The pigments are applied in the outer layers of the skin, unlike regular tattoo ink which is placed much deeper.

It really is the look of hair, but with no hair and can change the personal confidence of men and women significantly.

It can be used for a wide range of hair loss variations, transplant surgery, balding to hairline recession and alopecia. It can also be used to conceal hair transplant scars or blemishes, as a result of trauma to the head. This procedure is much cheaper than a hair transplant.
โ
The build-up of scalp micropigmentation takes place over 3 sessions, each session can range from a few hours to 5 hours, depending on how much of the area needs to be treated, with at least one week in between each session. This allows for a gradual build-up of the treatment.

If you are nervous about your hair design or how it will look, we work with a white pencil to draw the new hairline in place and will not proceed, until you are completely satisfied with the template, we have designed. Every client has a different idea of what why want on their first treatment so we can make adjustments if needed, at the next session.

What causes the skin to age?Sooner or later, the years catch up with us. As we grow older the Dermal layer of the skin becomes thinner, less collagen is produced and the elastin fibres, which provide elasticity wear out. Over time, Sebaceous glands get bigger, whilst producing less sebum (the oily matter that lubricates the skin) and so the number of sweat glands get smaller, causing skin dryness. These changes in the scaffolding of the skin, cause it to loose laxity, texture and get saggy and wrinkly. We also become more susceptiable to hyper-pigmentation, discolouration and photo damage, expecially from exposure to the sun's radiation and smoking among other factors. Our ultimate goal, of our Fibroblast treatment is to help dramatically repair, all of these effects for a more youthful appearance.

Why Fibroblast/Plasma Treatment?The name comes from one of the most important cells in this treatment, which are the fibroblasts. These are the most common cells in the connective tissues. Most importantly, they synthesize the extracellular matrix and connective tissue fibres (including the cruical collagen and elastin). As you may guess, the rejuvenation process begins with the manipulation of these cell's activities. The fibroblast treatment works by rejuvenating skin around the face and neck. This includes lower and upper eyelid tightening, neck tightening, facelift, lip wrinkles, smile lines, stretch marks and others.
-
How does the treatment work??We target fibroblast cells, to create very precise heat induced trauma, shortly after these injuries occur, inflammation starts and blood flow to the region, which increases as the skin repairs itself. This process activates and stimulates the fibroblast cells, to lay down new collagen cells. The fibroblast cells leave behind new collagen and elastin cells as they spread inwards towards the trauma. For weeks after the trauma, the fibroblast cells will continue to produce new collagen. Tiny plasma flashes are discharged from the tip of the handpiece. This creates a dot upon contact with the skin. There are no cuts, blood or damage to the skin. These tiny plasma flashes cause "crusts" to form on the skin, giving the distinctive dotting effect. These on average are gone between 5-7 days. The skin is numbed before each treatment. It takes around 30 mins to complete, depending on the area, you are left with slight redness around the eyes and slight swelling occuring within 1-3 days. After 7 days, the marks disappear and the redness will have gone by 3 weeks

After roughly 5-7 days, somtimes longer as everyones skin is different, the scabs that have formed will disappear.
