micropigmentation
Cosmetic skin coloring
Micropigmentation is a cosmetic technique that implants pigment into the skin using fine needles, creating effects similar to tattoos but typically more subtle.
It's used for permanent makeup—eyebrows, eyeliner, lip color—and to camouflage scars or simulate hair follicles on balding scalps.
The pigments often fade over time, requiring touch-ups.
