What is micropigmentation?

When we talk about tattoos, many ideas come to mind, but we rarely associate it with beauty. In today's post, I show you how tattoos not only serve to decorate the skin, but go much further.

Generally, when the skin has imperfections or scars, we tend to hide them with different techniques or makeup products. But for some time, more and more people are echoing an effective aesthetic treatment that hides them perfectly. I am talking about micropigmentation.

What exactly is micropigmentation? It is a non-invasive permanent aesthetic treatment that corrects or improves some skin imperfections by implanting color pigments with a small needle. This technique was born in the 90s and is also known as permanent makeup or microsurgery.

In recent years, this innovative treatment has been gaining followers since it is painless and its purpose is to beautify certain parts of the body such as lips, eyebrows or eyes. If in your case, you are looking to repair imperfections or scars caused by diseases such as vitiligo or alopecia, this treatment is one of the most recommended since it can be used paramedically.

As I mentioned before, it is quite a requested technique, but why is it? Well, one of its advantages is that it is permanent. This means that you can enjoy your results 24 hours a day without the need for touch-ups. Although I recommend that from time to time you make revisions in case it is necessary to touch up.

Although you think that this technique is similar to microblanding , it is not. Microblanding superficially pigments the dermis, making it less durable than micropigmentation. Furthermore, in both methods the instruments used are totally different.

Once you have learned a little more about micropigmentation, I will now list the different types that there are.
