Combat Hair Loss With Scalp Micropigmentation for Women

Scalp Ink in Melbourne, Victoria, has become one of the best-known places in Australia that offers scalp tattoo for females, which is also known as scalp micropigmentation (SMP). Every year, many women experience severe hair loss and may develop bald spots on their heads. Many also suffer from alopecia, a disease that causes baldness. In a society that puts intense pressure on women to maintain a certain beauty standard, hair loss and hair thinning can be mentally taxing for women and make them lose confidence.

SMP for women provides an affordable and simple solution to this situation. During female scalp micropigmentation, a trained tattoo artist carefully places individual dots on the woman’s scalp. These dots are made to look like hair follicles and can give off the appearance of more hair on the scalp. Scalp micropigmentation for women can help fix bald spots, reduce the widening of the hair part or even cover up the scarred areas for women who have gone under the knife for hair transplant surgery.

At Scalp Ink, our goal is to rebuild the confidence of these women so that they can walk out of our clinic feeling comfortable and happy with their appearance. Micropigmentation for women is completely non-invasive and a simple procedure without any cutting, scarring or healing time. Results are also visible almost immediately. Women end up with a very natural looking hair thinning remedy that does not involve expensive and time-consuming care routines in the future.

How Is Scalp Micropigmentation Applied to Women?

At Scalp Ink Melbourne, Victoria, we use SMP for men and women. In women, the focus of this procedure is to create an illusion of thick hair. Women generally start to experience hair thinning at the hairline or on the crown of their heads. As the hair loss gradually increases, the scalp becomes increasingly visible in these areas. A female scalp tattoo covers up these exposed areas of the scalp with little dots, making it seem thicker and more voluminous hair on the woman’s head. SMP for women results are very natural, and even from the side or up close, most people will not be able to tell the difference.

Women often resort to temporary products that add volume to their hair once they start experiencing hair loss. However, these products are expensive, do not last all day, and can even damage the rest of the existing hair. Compared to all this, SMP for women is a much more convenient and long-term solution.

Women generally require two to four SMP sessions at Scalp Ink to achieve their desired effect. Our tattoo artists work individually with each client in sanitised working areas to give each client a personalised plan that will work best with their facial symmetry, skin type and hair loss pattern. After each session, there may be some redness and itchiness in parts of the scalp, but it will subside within a few days. Sessions are generally spaced with a one to two weeks gap in between. However, the results are visible as soon as the first session is completed.

Scalp micropigmentation for women: Is it Worth it?

Highly skilled tattoo artists, with years of experience, perform hair micropigmentation for women at Scalp Ink. They use tattoo ink that matches the woman’s skin tone and natural hair colour perfectly. These tattoos are semi-permanent, meaning that in most cases (except for a few skin types), the tattoo will remain more or less unchanged for nearly eight years. After that, the colours will fade, and touch-up sessions will be necessary. Increased sun exposure can also cause SMP to fade more quickly.

SMP for women gives a voluminous look to the hair, negating a major concern among women experiencing hair fall. Certain diseases like alopecia, irregular lifestyle, hormonal imbalances, genetics and age are the biggest causes of hair loss among females. It is sometimes possible to manage these conditions with mediations, but that does not always work. In such cases, SMP acts as a perfectly safe method for women to regain a full head of hair look. An SMP procedure does not damage the hair follicles, so women undergoing hair regrowth treatments need not worry about getting SMP to help with their self-esteem.

How to Go About Planning Your Female Scalp Tattoo?

Women, in and around Melbourne, Victoria, can visit our Scalp Ink office or call us via telephone to begin the process. They will be given a consultation slot with one of our scalp tattoo artists. The personal consultation involves the tattoo artist choosing the colours and spots to work on each client after thorough examination and discussion with the client. Then two to three tattooing sessions are completed with 7 to 14 days of breaks between each session to allow the skin to fully recover. Many artists suggest one more session after one to three months for a final finishing touch. The scalp tattoo is now complete and will easily last another eight years.
