Tricopigmentation is an evolution of micropigmentation. A specific system, a tested equipment, peculiar pigments and needles allow us to offer perfect results.

The spreading of pigment in Tricopigmentation as in micropigmentation is a natural phenomenon which is caused by the nature of human dermis. The evolution of the pigment is almost imperceptible and it is directly proportional to the initial shape and size of the original deposit at the moment of the procedure. A well-performed treatment shouldn’t change in dimention and should therefore remain unchanged for several months. On the other hand an untrained technician may inoculate by mistake an eccessive quantity of pigment wich will immediately evolve into macro-dots.

The difference between a tattoo and a tricopigmentation procedure stands in the physical/chemical composition of pigments. The micro- and tricopigmentation particles are synthesized in laboratory so that they become hypo-allergenic. Metallic powders, after being micronized, weighted etc., are encapsulated in a sort of similsiliconic membrane, which prevents them from damaging the skin.

The tests we carry out before Tricopigmentation are only designed to understand whether certain tissues, such as scars, can be treated. They are not allergy tests. The practitioner, as well as the tattoo artist, does not have the skills to do a patch test, which must be therefore carried out by an allergist. We want to continue working with serenity and of course we don’t want to endanger our patients.

Definition: A toppik is a compound of keratin fibers, which gets electrostatically charged and is able to anchor to the indigenous hair in order to increase hair density.
Can Tricopigmentation be compared to toppik? The answer is NO.
Tricopigmentation is often compared to a concealer, dermatch, but on a practical level, of course, these two solutions are completely different.

Tricopigmentation does not create any damage to the miniaturized hair, indeed, since I deal with it on a daily basis I asked for the opinion of Dr. Tesauro who stated that the action of the needle (if performed by trained hands) does not create damage to the hair but on the other hand creates hyperemia (the blood reaches the dermis surface)… A real benefit for all alopecia cases. In a lot of cases, after Tricopigmentation, totally hairless areas can show light hair growth.

Yes, any case can be treated successfully, of course if the patient still has enough dentity. Don’t forget that micropigmentation is seen as a support to medicine with reference to aesthetic problems. Deseases such as Vitiligo can be treated in order to improve the aesthetic appearance or reduce the psychological suffering of the patient.

Tricopigmentation is a methodology which was specifically designed to be absorbed by human body in the medium term. The pigments are characterized by a molecular structure which is very different from that of tattoos (the size is much smaller). This feature allows our body to eat the powders contained in the pigments, providing (at least in theory) the total vanishing (within 3 or 4 years optically and at least twice as long in the dermis).

Pain is a very subjective and personal factor. However, the use of innovative products and equipments reduces pain and usually patients feel just a light bother.

The first tricopigmentation session lasts on the average about three hours and the second one about two hours. This depends on the area and on the scalp skin quality we are treating.

The time required by the dermis for the initial healing is about 24 hours. Once the excess of pigment is expelled we can carry out the second session successfully.

All skin anomalies, including Seborrheic dermatitis, may inconvinience the Tricopigmentation treatment, however they don’t make it impossible.
The problem is related to pigment stabilization, especially if seborrheic dermatitis is characterized by peeling. Oily skin and peeling may facilitate and accelerate pigment fading and expulsion (it is a normal action but in this specific case it is amplified).
Of course we are referring to the immediate post-treatment phase.
It is advisable for the patient to follow the advice of a doctor (preferably a dermatologist) by applying specific products which can restore normal skin conditions before undergoing tricopigmentation.

The drawing of the hairline, required in cases of shaved effect, is a fundamental phase of the treatment. The aim is to find a balance between the patient’s requests and the practitioner’s experience and aesthetic taste. Several factors have to be taken into consideration when reconstructing the hairline of the patient, such as age, morphological features, etc.

All technicians approved by Beauty Medical followed the same training. They all manage the technique and master hairline design. It is important to consider the customer’s expectations, the technician’s experience and the patient’s facial features. Our team analyzes every single case focusing on proportions.

It is advisable to shave your hair (on average 1 mm) at least 24 hours before the procedure. If the scalp is irritated, there might be more blood on the surface and this may represent an obstacle to the correct pigment stabilization.

At least 4 days before the procedure customers must stop using any topical drugs (Minoxidil, Locoidon, Scalpicin, Antiandrogens etc.) and any systemic drugs that may fluidify blood.

During and after all tricopigmentation sessions patients must avoid washing their scalp, with or without shampoo.
The day after the last session customers have to cleanse the treated area with a specific shampoo for Tricopigmentation and apply a specific serum twice a day to foster healing.

In the immediate pre treatment do not take alcohol, not even in small quantities.
