scalp micropigmentation is a tattooing process

Here at Lily Handt health + beauty, we know that how you look can have a significant effect on how you feel–and, while everyone understands that the aging process will bring changes, many people still find it difficult to deal with the emotional impact of these changes when they arrive. For example, if you have thinning or receding hair, it is completely understandable to want to create the appearance of a fuller scalp. In this article, our team will go over one of the best methods to do that, which is our scalp micropigmentation treatment.

Essentially, scalp micropigmentation is a tattooing process that uses thousands of tiny ink dots to mimic the look of your hair follicles. While these dots do not stimulate follicle growth or slow hair loss over time, they do help visually fill in your previous hairline, creating the appearance of a scalp that has been deliberately shaved rather than one that is merely balding. This creates a more youthful appearance, and–in our experience here at Lily Handt health + beauty–is a great way to feel more confident and comfortable in your skin.

Another issue that may arise along with thinning hair or a receding hairline is self-consciousness about the appearance of your scalp–as more of the skin on your head becomes visible, you may find that you have discolored spots that you did not know about before. If you have any discoloration or scarring on your scalp, our scalp micropigmentation can help with that too–simply set up an appointment, and our team will help even out your scalp’s coloration so that you can feel more confident.
