Scalp micropigmentation: in which cases is it indicated?
Scalp micropigmentation is a non-invasive aesthetic treatment which consists of “tattooing” very small dots on the scalp to simulate the presence of hair follicles. It is a versatile solution, which can be used to treat various blemishes. Let's see together in which cases a scalp micropigmentation treatment is useful and appropriate.
Male pattern baldness
Male pattern baldness, also known as androgenetic alopecia, is the most common form of hair loss in men. It is caused by a combination of genetic and hormonal factors, which can lead to a progressively receding hairline, resulting in thinning of the hair on the top of the head. In these cases, scalp micropigmentation can be an excellent solution, simulating the presence of hair with a natural and long-lasting "shaved effect".
Alopecia areata
Alopecia areata is a disorder that causes patchy hair loss on the scalp, and affects both men and women. It is a condition that can unfortunately cause significant emotional distress and affect a person's quality of life. Also in this case, scalp micropigmentation can be helpful in recreating the illusion of the presence of hair in the affected areas.
Thinning
Thinning is a common problem for both men and women. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including age, genetics, hormonal changes, and some medical conditions. In this case, scalp micropigmentation can be applied to create the appearance of thicker hair by filling in areas where the hair is thinning and creating a more uniform appearance (so-called “density effect”).
Scalp Scars
Scalp scars can naturally be caused by a variety of factors, such as injuries or surgery, and unfortunately make a person very uncomfortable. In these cases, a scalp micropigmentation treatment can be used to simulate the presence of shaved hair in the scarred areas, covering and unifying the scar with the appearance of the surrounding tissue.
Other imperfections
Many people want a "fresh-shaven" haircut, but these styles can reveal scalp imperfections, such as small scars, spots or other irregularities. Also in this case, scalp micropigmentation intervenes to create a more uniform appearance and cover imperfections, making the scalp appear smoother and more natural.
In conclusion
A scalp micropigmentation treatment can be the best choice to overcome many of the aesthetic problems of the scalp. We remind you that it is a non-surgical aesthetic treatment, which has the main purpose of recreating a natural and long-lasting appearance.
