I'm a client. I have sensitive skin, can I get micropigmentation?

Yes, you can! People with sensitive skin can have micropigmentation. However, you need to take a few extra precautions so that everything goes smoothly.

It is essential to carry out an assessment of your skin type to identify any allergies, history of irritation or any other dermatological condition.

You should also take extra care after the procedure, using the products recommended by the professional and avoiding exposure to the sun, swimming pools and chemical products that could damage the skin.

I'm a professional. How can I make micropigmentation safer for my client with sensitive skin?

1. Know the client's skin type

Before starting any micropigmentation procedure, it is essential to assess and get to know the client's skin type, especially when we are dealing with sensitive skin.

There should be time to ask about known allergies, history of irritations or any dermatological condition. In this way, you can personalise the technique and the products used to each client's needs and skin type.

2. Use hypoallergenic products

When working with sensitive skin, it is essential to choose hypoallergenic products. This minimises the risk of adverse reactions, irritations or allergies. So make sure you choose pigments, anaesthetics and disposable materials with gentle formulas that are safe for all skin types.

3. Carry out sensitivity tests

Before going ahead with the procedure, it is essential to carry out sensitivity tests on a small area of the skin to ensure that the client with sensitive skin does not have any unexpected reactions to the products used.

This is a simple action that helps prevent complications and gives the client a more confident and relaxed experience.

4. Control the pressure and depth of the needle

As mentioned in previous articles, micropigmentation is an aesthetic procedure carried out on the epidermis and papillary dermis. When carrying out the procedure on sensitive skin, it is even more important to control the pressure and depth of the needle.

Avoid putting too much pressure on the skin and always adjust the depth according to each client's individual characteristics. This will help minimise discomfort and prevent possible skin irritation.

5. Give specific post-procedure instructions

It's important to provide detailed instructions on the care to be taken after micropigmentation. You should recommend hypoallergenic products to soothe and protect the newly pigmented skin, and instruct clients about sun exposure and the use of swimming pools and aggressive products during healing.

6. Communicate transparently

Maintain open and transparent communication with your clients. Try to answer any questions, explain the process, the products used and possible side effects. All this fosters a relationship of trust and allows your clients to feel more comfortable during the procedure.

In short, micropigmentation on sensitive skin requires an even more careful and personalised approach. By respecting my tips, you're ensuring a positive experience and incredible results for your clients!

Always remember the importance of updating your knowledge and techniques to offer the best possible service to your clients.
