Hi Im a 19 yr old black/asian female with vitiligo on my face. I have very dark skin and have recently acquired a micro needling pen. My question is, Ive found a flesh colored tattoo ink that matches my skin perfectly, can I use a microneedling pen to darken the patches on my skin to match my dark complexion?
I have been steadily getting my tattoo laser removed. My tattoo removal technician has recommended that I get microneedling on my tattoo to help reconfigure/reconstruct some of the scar tissue on it. This is because the scar tissue has trapped some ink particles and that microneedling may help release the trapped ink and speed up the removal process. Im a bit skeptical on this, additionally I have never heard of microneedling on anywhere but the face and I cannot find a provider who offers this
hello, I have stretch marks on my hips that I want to get rid of or reduced in appearance. I also have some tattooing to the area. I'm wondering if it is safe to microneedle or use lasers to the areas of stretch marks without damaging my tattoos. any information would be appreciated.
I underwent a cyst removal procedure on my lip. After healing, theres slightly raised, bright white scaring along where the incision was as well as 3 out of 4 spots where suture was. I have visited with many plastic surgeons and dermatologist regarding how to reduce the appearance of scaring and there seems to be two options: Microneedling w/ PRP and medical tattooing. I have one clinic pushing heavily for MN W/ PRP and one for tattooing. Im not sure which would be the best route.
I'm having a tattoo removed with Enlighten. The ink is fading but I'm left with raised scars. I tried silicon gel but either it's not working at all or the progress is so slow I can't tell. I've been massaging as of recently but I've read it doesn't really work for old scars (?) I've seen people mention microneedling/dermarollers (like .3mm that you'd find on Amazon) for scars. Could that help? If so can I go ahead and start or should I wait til all the ink is gone?
I have a lot of hypopigmentation on my face from acne scars I've literally tried every cream you can think of I was curious if I added a little bit of tattoo ink to my face that matches my skin color and then do the micro needling pen with that ink get pulled into camouflage my white spots?
