Any area of the scalp with hair loss can be shaded, from the crown to the hairline. MicroArt is perfect for men and women, all styles and types of hair. Colors are customized to match your hair color, so it is virtually blended with the existing hair to create a full, natural look.

HOW DOES MICROART ELIMINATE THE SIDE EFFECTS OF PERMANENT MAKEUP AND TATTOOING?

MicroArt is a proprietary technology developed by acclaimed Hollywood entrepreneur and former special effects makeup expert Tanya York — with the help of a team of mechanical engineers and cosmetic biochemists.

The goal was to develop a makeup procedure that would look more natural than any form of permanent or semi-permanent makeup and eliminate all side effects. Side effects of other forms of permanent makeup range from short-term such as downtime, scabbing, bruising and heavy bleeding to the long-term side effects such as scarring, inks that change colors on the skin and the shape of the makeup that changes over time due to the skin’s aging process.

MicroArt has eliminated all such side effects through:

  • Equipment: Specialized equipment developed by MicroArt for unrivaled precision.
  • Clinics: MicroArt procedures are performed in a certified, professional medical office passing regular, stringent County Health Department inspections.
  • Products: Special, natural pigments developed that will not change color and are hypoallergenic (safe for your skin).
  • Technique: A technique developed over the years to ensure the ideal, custom shape and color is provided to each client
  • Technicians: All technicians are personally trained for months, and certified, by Master Micro Artist Tanya York. MicroArt Technicians are not licensed to perform services on Ms. York’s clients until their work is indistinguishable from hers.

There are no other forms of permanent cosmetics like it.

MicroArt

MicroArt Semi Permanent Makeup® is the most advanced form of cosmetic tattooing, achieving the most natural results without any side effects.

There is NO downtime, NO bruising, NO scabbing, NO scarring.

MicroArt equipment uses an acupuncture needle as thin as a human hair that vibrates on the outer layer of the skin 80 to 100 times per second. The results are precise. Colors are custom-blended with non-toxic mineral-based pigments. Our Artist customizes the design to fit each patient’s look and desires. It takes about 1 year to train a Micro-Artist to perform the procedure. The results are incredibly natural.

Other Techniques

Permanent makeup is applied using heavy-gauge needles or a blade to penetrate deep into the skin, causing bleeding, bruising, scabbing, scarring, and downtime.  Other techniques use tattoo inks that are toxic to the body; colors are harsh and change in the skin over time. So people can end up with blue/grey and orange inks in the skin.  Permanent makeup often accentuates signs of aging. Over time, the ink moves as the skin stretches and ends up in the wrong place.

Permanent makeup artists’ training is only a few days. The equipment & products used all contribute to the harsh look associated with permanent makeup and microblading.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT SCALP SHADING FOR HAIR LOSS

The Color: Your technician will evaluate your scalp and hair color at the beginning of each session and choose a color to best match your natural hair.

Pigmentation: MicroArt Semi Permanent Makeup uses a single acupuncture needle that gently vibrates on the dermal layers of the skin depositing a mineral based pigment into the scalp until the desired color is achieved. Individual hairs are layered on the skin creating a completely natural look.

Scalp Shading usually takes four (1-hour) sessions per 25 square inch (5”x 5”) area. Each session is scheduled 4 weeks apart.

No. MicroArt will not damage your hair follicles on your scalp. There is no hair loss during or after the procedure.

  • Arrive at your appointment 15 minutes before your scheduled appointment, well rested and relaxed.
  • Your scalp should be clean without any products.
  • Bring a hat to wear after the procedure as your hair will be messy and you will need to wash it as soon as possible that day.

Yes, actually it is encouraged you go straight home and wash your hair!

The level of discomfort varies from person to person. A strong topical numbing cream is used.

MicroArt uses a single acupuncture needle that gently vibrates on the outer dermal layers of the skin, therefore discomfort is minimal.

Numbing shots can be scheduled with the doctors that we work with and are an additional cost.

Numbing shots are recommended if we are working on procedures taking 2 hours or more.

Maintenance appointments are optional. If you do not maintain MicroArt, it will completely fade away over time.

Everyone’s maintenance schedule is different based on how fast the skin exfoliates.

Some clients come in every few months for touch-up sessions and some only need to come in annually.

Yes! MicroArt’s Scalp shading procedure is completely safe so you will not lose any of your natural or transplanted hair. Scalp shading does not damage the hair follicles in any way, nor will it cause any hair loss. Because it is so artfully applied, with surgical-quality fine instruments, MicroArt can even camouflage scars created by hair transplants.

One of the major advantages of MicroArt is that it is semi-permanent – it lasts up to 3 years on the scalp. So if you do not maintain it (have it refreshed with a maintenance treatment every year or two), it will eventually fade away completely. In this way, if you choose to shave your head,  there will not be any traces of MicroArt remaining on your skin. This contrasts with tattoos or other forms of permanent makeup, which will eventually turn a bluish color and lasts forever.

Initially, 4 sessions 4 weeks apart are needed for each area of the scalp to cover thinning hair. During each session, more pigment is added to the scalp in thin layers gradually changing the color of the skin and matching it to your natural hair texture and hair color. You see results after each session. During a 1-hour session, a pigment can be added to about a 6-inch circle of the scalp although each area of the scalp is different in terms of sensitivity and how fast our technicians can apply pigment to thinning areas. Each Scalp Shading client is unique, so the number of sessions needed to obtain the desired natural looking results will vary based on each client’s individual hair loss situation.

After each session, you will have to go home and wash your hair, as it will be messy from the procedure. You will see the results right away as the pigment settles into the skin to create a natural appearance. After each session the pigment will appear darker then over the next 2 weeks, it lightens up in time for your next session where we add more pigment to match your hair color. After each session, the color fades less. We will give you an aftercare kit that should be used 2 times per day for 5 days after each session. This will keep the scalp sanitized and moisturized. The results are amazing!
