SCALP MICROPIGMENTATION IN ROCHESTER, NY
Scalp Micropigmentation is a non-invasive treatment that uses detailed micro-needles to deposit pigment into the scalp with a stippling technique. The result creates the appearance of tiny hair follicles that help thicken and restore the look of fuller hair. The Scalp Micropigmentation treatment at Bare Element can help restore receding hairlines, adds density to remaining hair, and can camouflage hair transplant scarring.
Our Scalp Microblading Specialist, Maria Nasso, has been trained and certified by Billy DeCola’s Scalp Micropigmentation Course. Billy DeCola is a well known Scalp pigment Tattoo Artisit who was on TLC’s hit reality show “NY Ink.” Maria has 8 years experience in permanent make-up/ micro tattooing!
Frequently Asked Questions:
• What is Scalp Microblading?
Scalp Microblading, also known as Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP), is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses detailed micro-needles to deposit pigment into the scalp. This technique replicates tiny hair follicles, creating the appearance of a fuller head of hair or a closely shaved scalp.
• Is Scalp Microblading safe?
Yes, Scalp Microblading is considered safe when performed by a trained and experienced specialist. The procedure is non-surgical and minimally invasive. We use single-use cartridges to deposit pigment into the dermis layer of the skin, following strict safety guidelines to minimize any risks.
• Will Scalp Microblading work with long hair?
Yes, Scalp Microblading can be used to add density to long hair. Certain conditions, such as enough coverage of hair on the crown area and a relatively intact hairline, are considered to ensure optimal results.
• Will it hurt?
Most clients experience minimal discomfort during the scalp microblading procedure. A topical anesthetic is applied beforehand to ensure comfort. Pain tolerance varies, but generally, the sensation is tolerable. revisionink.com
• Will it look realistic?
Yes, scalp microblading is designed to replicate the appearance of natural hair follicles, resulting in a realistic and natural look. The technique involves creating fine, hair-like strokes that blend seamlessly with your existing hair.
• What happens when my hair turns grey?
Scalp microblading can accommodate changes in hair color, including greying. The pigments used are selected to match your natural hair color and can be adjusted over time to ensure a consistent appearance as your hair changes.
• How long does scalp microblading last?
The results of scalp microblading are semi-permanent, typically lasting between 3 to 7 years. Over time, the pigments may gradually fade, and touch-up sessions can be scheduled to maintain the desired look.
• How many treatments are needed?
Most clients require 2 to 3 sessions, spaced about 2 weeks apart, to achieve optimal results. A follow-up touch-up will be scheduled a month later to assess the outcome.
• Can Scalp Microblading camouflage scars?
Yes, Scalp Microblading can effectively camouflage scars, including those from hair transplants or injuries. By replicating tiny hair follicles inside the scarring and blending the color around the scarred area, significant improvement in concealment can be achieved.
• Will the pigment change color over time?
No, unlike traditional tattoos, the pigment used in Scalp Microblading is designed to maintain its color and will only lighten over time without discoloration.
• Can I wear a hat after my treatment?
Yes, you can wear a hat or skullcap after your Scalp Microblading treatment. However, it's recommended to ensure the hat is clean and not too tight to avoid irritation to the treated area.
• Do I need to take time off work?
Scalp Microblading is non-invasive and requires no downtime. Most clients notice slight redness on the scalp for 2 to 3 days post-session, but this subsides quickly, allowing you to return to work either right away or within a couple of days. For the first 3 days after treatment you will be advised not to get water on the area and refrain from sweating or heavy exercise.
• How much does Scalp Microblading cost?

Two treatments are included in the pricing below, payments will be split, half at your first appointment and final payment at your second appointment.
