Is hair tricopigmentation better than micropigmentation?both one technique and the other, the only advantage they have is that they are cheaper than other treatments, but they have innumerable limitations that you must assess before performing it. If you usually wear your hair with a certain length, no matter how little, think that any type of tattoo (be it micro or tricopigmentation) is not going to generate volume, only coloring on the skin, especially in an area as visible as the entrances, This means that when you get the sun or light, your skin will shine revealing an area without hair, but with the image of tattooed hair. If you have shaved hair, this is less problematic, but you should think that the tattooing is done in a similar color to your hair, and over time your hair will turn gray, leaving the tattooed areas dark, and the rest with gray or white. Our advice as a medical center specializing in hair treatments, is that you consider either a capillary micrograft with the FUE technique for the best aesthetic result with respect to the FUSS technique, or as a more economical one, with the same aesthetic results as the FUE, Biofibre hair implants.
