Medizinische Dermographie

Medical dermopigmentation is both a restorative and aesthetic approach that supports individuals in their physical and emotional recovery. It helps correct marks left by illness, surgery, or trauma, while also helping to restore self-confidence.

What is Medical Dermopigmentation?

Medical dermopigmentation, also known as corrective or restorative dermography, is a semi-permanent tattooing technique used to camouflage skin imperfections or visually restore areas altered by illness, surgery, or trauma.

This advanced technique is commonly used for:

  • Scar camouflage (from surgery, burns, or injuries)

  • Correction of localized vitiligo

  • Areola reconstruction after mastectomy or breast surgery

  • Scalp micropigmentation (tricopigmentation) to reduce the appearance of alopecia or fill in thinning areas

  • Aesthetic dermopigmentation for eyebrows, lips, or lash lines, to redefine facial features and restore balance

An Alternative Solution: Pink-Perfect Areola Prostheses

We also offer Pink-Perfect prosthetic areolas, a CE-certified medical device designed for patients who have undergone a mastectomy without areola reconstruction. These hyper-realistic, self-adhesive prostheses provide a non-invasive, aesthetic solution that restores body image and confidence.

Who Is Medical Dermopigmentation For?

Medical dermopigmentation is intended for individuals who wish to improve the appearance of their skin or restore body symmetry and confidence after an illness, surgery, or trauma. It is suitable for both medical and cosmetic purposes.

Q&A

What is the difference between medical and aesthetic dermopigmentation ?

Medical dermopigmentation is used to correct or camouflage skin areas affected by surgery, illness, trauma, or skin conditions such as vitiligo, scars, and post-mastectomy areola reconstruction.
Aesthetic dermopigmentation, on the other hand, focuses on enhancing facial features like eyebrows, lips, and lash lines to create a natural, long-lasting look without any medical indication.

How long do results from medical dermopigmentation last?

The results of medical dermopigmentation generally last from 1 to 3 years, depending on skin type, the treated area, lifestyle, and sun exposure. Regular touch-up sessions may be necessary to maintain the desired outcome.

Is medical dermopigmentation painful?

The discomfort during dermopigmentation is minimal. Most people report mild discomfort, but a topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to reduce any pain, making the process relatively comfortable.

Can dermopigmentation be used after breast cancer surgery?

Yes, dermopigmentation is commonly used to reconstruct the areola after breast cancer surgery (mastectomy). This non-surgical technique provides a realistic, aesthetic solution for women who have undergone breast reconstruction.

How many sessions are needed for medical dermopigmentation?

Typically, 2 to 3 sessions are required for the best results in medical dermopigmentation, followed by annual touch-ups. The number of sessions may vary depending on the area being treated and individual needs.
