I would like your opinion on micropigmentation. Dots are too heavy and visible. (Photo)
Sara Wasserbauer, MD - Account Suspended says:

The pigment color and size is dependant on dilution of pigment and application by technician, and should be done carefully especially at the hairline.  if the appearance of the SMP is not to your satisfaction you can likely have it removed by a laser tattoo removal device.  Good luck!!
