Tricopigmentation

Dermopigmentation

Machine technicians

When trichology is powerless in solving hair loss problems, clients are often left alone with their problem, resorting to various tricks. However, today there is a way to visually correct the absence of hair - with the help of trichopigmentation.<h2 style="text-align: center;"> Alopecia - what is it?</h2> Hair loss, or alopecia, is a serious aesthetic and psychological problem for a person of any gender. Alopecia (from other Greek ἀλωπεκία through Latin alopecia - baldness, baldness) - pathological hair loss, leading to their thinning or complete disappearance in certain areas of the head or torso. The most common types of alopecia include androgenetic (androgenetic); diffuse, or symptomatic (effluviums); focal, or nesting (areata); cicatricial (scarring). The prevalence of the problem in both men and women makes scientists around the world look for new ways to treat it. <img alt="" src="https://pro.bhub.com.ua/permanent/upload/files/%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%BF%D0%B5%D1%86%D0%B8%D1%8F.jpg" style="width: 1200px; height: 764px;" /> <a href="https://pro.bhub.com.ua/permanent/beautypedia/trihopigmentacia">Tricopigmentation </a>is a method of aesthetic dermopigmentation, which helps to hide the absence of hair by drawing it on the skin. For many clients, it has become a real salvation, an alternative to surgery and the constant wearing of wigs. In addition, trichopigmentation is often used as the final procedure after a hair transplant to make the effect more convincing. The Tricopigmentazione® technique was registered in 2008. Its authors are Italian dermopigmentation specialists Tony Belfato and Ennio Orsini. Together with the company Biotek, which has released a special line of equipment and pigments for trichopigmentation, they have developed a whole system for correcting alopecia using dermapigmentation.<h2 style="text-align: center;"> Features of the application of the technique</h2> The trichopigmentation technique was born as a way to correct androgenetic alopecia , which affects most of the stronger sex in Italy. In order to visually smooth out the balding fronto-parietal zone with the remaining scalp, men often resort to shaving the entire surface of the head. Absolutely shaved men can be found everywhere in Italy, in our country this method is less common. But even on a clean-shaven head, areas where hair no longer grows are clearly visible. With androgenetic alopecia and total baldness, it is possible to apply small strokes or dots, creating the effect of a “shaved head”. The same method is used in the correction of alopecia in the area of the mustache, beard, sideburns. The application of dots requires special care from the specialist, since the scalp is thinner than on other parts of the body, and highly stretched. Injecting pigment too deep can lead to unsightly stains and exacerbate the problem instead of fixing it. In the process of training, specialists are taught to apply points with a very light and at the same time uniform hand pressure, with a certain rhythm of movements. To facilitate the performance of such complex and responsible work, a special program and a pulsating mode of motor operation were installed in the trichodermograph apparatus. There is also a separate program for working on the frontal zone, where the hairline should be especially light and fading away. <img alt="" src="https://pro.bhub.com.ua/permanent/upload/files/%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%BF%D0%B5%D1%86%D0%B8%D1%8F-1.jpg" style="width: 1200px; height: 600px;" /> Each person&#39;s hairline has a unique pattern. To maintain this individuality, the trichopigmentation specialist asks the client to show youthful photographs showing the beginning of the hairline and whiskey. Tricopigmentation differs from classic permanent makeup in that immediately after the procedure, the effect of the work performed is almost imperceptible, it appears only after a month. Without knowing this feature, the specialist will not be able to achieve the desired result. Dealing with diffuse alopecia is another area of application for trichopigmentation. Diffuse alopecia is defined by uniform hair thinning throughout the head. Often this type of alopecia becomes the result of severe stress, psychological and physical overstrain and is widespread among people holding responsible leadership positions. Tricopigmentation allows you to solve a similar problem by simulating the density of hair. To do this, rather long strokes are applied over the entire surface of the head, corresponding to the growth of natural hair, in a fan technique. The work is divided into several procedures. In one procedure, it is comfortable for the client to process a zone of 10-20 square meters. see Repeated procedure on the same area can be carried out no earlier than a month later. The pigment is selected depending on the color of the hair roots. Despite the fact that working with diffuse alopecia is a rather long and laborious process, the result justifies all expectations. <img alt="" src="https://pro.bhub.com.ua/permanent/upload/files/%D0%B4%D0%B8%D1%84%D1%84%D1%83%D0%B7%20%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%BF%D0%B5%D1%86.jpg" style="width: 800px; height: 262px;" /> It is necessary to dwell in more detail on the correction of cicatricial alopecia , since it is this technique that has recently gained particular popularity. Considering the fact that plastic surgery is becoming more and more accessible to the inhabitants of our country from year to year, there is a need for postoperative correction of cicatricial alopecia. Small scars remaining after a circular facelift, forehead correction, etc. can be easily masked by trichopigmentation. The scar is closed with strokes imitating natural hair and, if necessary, supplemented with flesh color if the surface of the scar differs from the surrounding scalp. Already after the first procedure, it is absolutely impossible to detect the scar area even from the closest distance. <img alt="" src="https://pro.bhub.com.ua/permanent/upload/files/%D1%80%D1%83%D0%B1%D1%86%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B0%D1%8F%20%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%BF%D0%B5%D1%86.jpg" style="width: 800px; height: 400px;" /> Separately, it should be noted the technique of correction of scars remaining after hair transplantation operations. During such an operation, hair follicles are taken from the occipital zone of the head and transplanted into the alopecia zones. Unfortunately, after this, a rather noticeable unaesthetic scar remains. As a result of correction by the method of trichopigmentation, the scar &quot;disappears&quot; as if by magic. To do this, the surface of the scar is covered with a flesh-colored pigment, and then neat dots are applied, as in the method of creating a “shaved head”. Also in the device there is a special program that regulates the power and speed of the machine in such a difficult area as a scar. It must be said that not every permanent makeup master can deal with trichopigmentation. The fact is that the procedure requires the specialist to know a special technique that differs from that used for conventional PM. The erroneous assumption that work in the head area can be carried out with the same means and methods as in the face and body area can lead to complications in the form of unaesthetic blurred blue spots, the correction of which will take a long time using laser depigmentation. There are only about a hundred certified trichopigmentologists in the world.<h2 style="text-align: center;"> Equipment and materials</h2> The trichopigmentation machine is called a trichodermograph. It uses needles and pigments specially designed for this procedure (tattoo pigments and pigments for PM are not suitable), which, by the way, can only be purchased by a certified specialist. Unlike conventional needles, which are 0.15 to 0.35 mm in diameter, trichopigmentation needles are strictly 0.22 mm. The thickness of the applied line or the diameter of the dot depends on the diameter of the needle. And from the sharpening of the needle and the height of its working part (needles with a diamond-shaped sharpening and a shortened working part are used in trichopigmentation) - the depth of penetration into the skin. The pigments used in the trichopigmentation procedure contain much less water base and more isopropyl alcohol than PM pigments, which also reduces the possibility of pigment bleeding in the skin. And their color scheme is designed in such a way that it eliminates the reddening of the pigment over time and matches the natural color of the hair roots. <img alt="" src="https://pro.bhub.com.ua/permanent/upload/files/%D0%9F%D1%80%D0%BE%D1%86%D0%B5%D0%B4%D1%83%D1%80%D0%B0%20%D1%82%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%85%D0%BE%D0%BF%D0%B8%D0%B3%D0%BC%D0%B5%D0%BD%D1%82%D0%B0%D1%86%D0%B8%D0%B8%2C%20%D0%B0.jpg" style="width: 1200px; height: 1600px;" /><h2 style="text-align: center;"> Applied techniques</h2> The dot technique allows you to draw microscopic dots on the skin, which, as already mentioned, give the appearance of slightly regrown hair or stubble. This technique is distinguished by its particular ease of pressing when introducing pigment and the chaotic arrangement of dots (dots arranged in a clear order look very artificial and catch the eye). Dot technique is usually used when working with male clients. With progressive baldness, it is necessary to “put additional points” as the skin is exposed. The linear technique is used to create the effect of the presence of hair in diffuse, focal and scarring alopecia. The lines should be very thin and evenly colored. To do this, use unit needles designed specifically for working with thin scalp. The shading technique is needed to paint over the scars to match the color of the surrounding skin (the scar tissue differs in color from a healthy scalp). Most often, stroke movements are performed crosswise. In addition, another problem directly related to alopecia is total alopecia of the eyebrows and eyelashes. If such a problem occurs in women, it can be solved with the help of classic permanent makeup, while adjusting the color and shape depending on the individual image. But for men, this option will look unnatural, too decorative. To create the effect of natural male eyebrows, there is another, specially designed technique. Men&#39;s eyebrows are wider than women&#39;s, have more angular, stiff lines, hairs grow in different directions and often cross in the middle. When imitating male eyebrows, several types of needles are used: 3 soft liner - a thin triple needle for contour work and 1 romb - a single needle with a diamond-shaped sharpening, as well as several colors of pigments - in the same range, but one is lighter, the other is darker. The technique involves the application of a base background of wider and lighter strokes and then a detailed study of the hairs with a dark pigment with a thin needle. Thus, trichopigmentation allows you to visually correct the problems of alopecia in clients, but today, few specialists in aesthetic medicine, surgery and cosmetology know about this direction and its possibilities.
