Scalp Micropigmentation (1 Session) delivers short, high-intensity laser pulses to break tattoo ink or excess pigment on the scalp into particles your body clears over time. AesthatiQ clinics select Q-switched or picosecond platforms and settings based on ink colour, depth, and skin tone after clinician assessment. Clearance is gradual — each session lightens the target rather than removing it in one visit.
Scalp Micropigmentation (1 Session) is performed by trained clinicians using clinically validated protocols. The plan is customised to your goals, anatomy, and recovery preferences after a detailed assessment.
Those with stable tattoo or pigment concerns on the scalp seeking gradual lightening
People who can commit to multiple sessions spaced for safe healing
Candidates willing to protect treated skin from sun during the course
Generally suitable when pigment contrast and skin type allow predictable energy delivery
Timelines vary by person. For Scalp Micropigmentation (1 Session), visible change is typically expected around: Lightening often visible 4–6 weeks after each session as ink or pigment fragments clear.
Immediately
White frosting or redness on the scalp is common and fades within hours
1–3 days
Mild swelling, pinpoint bleeding, or thin crust — keep area clean and covered
2–4 weeks
Treated pigment continues to break down beneath the surface
6–8 weeks
Next session window once healing is complete and fading is assessed
Feels like hot pinpricks or rubber-band snaps; larger tattoos may need numbing cream beforehand.
Amateur tattoos may fade faster; professional multi-colour work often needs many sessions months apart.
Cleared pigment usually stays faded; sun protection helps prevent new spots or darkening of residual ink.
Most return to desk work quickly; treated skin may look irritated for a few days.
