Are there any side effects to having the MHT™ scalp pigmentation treatment?
MHT™ techniques leaves a visible redness on the area of scalp that has been treated for approximately 2 to 5 days, due to micro needles penetrating the skin (redness is less visible on darker skin tones). Some clients have experienced a mild headache following treatment which can usually be brought under control with paracetamol. The treated area is likely to appear darker for up to 7 days after the treatment, largely dependent on your own skin tone. This is caused by the exfoliation process, which causes the regeneration of cells in the skin. This process typically takes 4 to 6 weeks, after which the deposited pigment is retained in the dermis below the surface of the skin (epidermis), making the treated area appear lighter and softer.
