I am not a big makeup wearer and spend most days in the sea. Megz created super natural-looking permanent eyeliner that makes me happy to walk around without mascara. The whole procedure was painless with minimal aftercare.

It's clear that Megz understands their clients and their needs—they're friendly, professional, and responsive.

Micro-Needling, Dermapen, or Collagen induction therapy has many names… but no matter what you call it, the results are the same…

It’s a safe and effective procedure that encourages the skin to respond by making new collagen-rich tissue.
By inducing controlled micro trauma, we stimulate blood flow in the area. White blood cells carry with it the magic duo of collagen & elastin, which in return provides you with anti aging and skin rejuvenating properties.

It can be used to treat and improve conditions like acne scarring, fine lines, skin tone and texture, breakouts, stretch marks, alopecia, and pigmentation issues.

It’s a slow process, 5-12 bookings will be made 4-6 weeks apart (depending on the severity of the area in question)

If you are hoping to get rid of a scar, It’s best to start microneedling as soon as possible after the injury

This procedure is always performed with numbing cream.

Scalp Micro-Pigmentation (SMP)
paramedic.ink@gmail.com / 060 841 5829
FAQ:

-What is SMP?
Scalp Micro-Pigmentation is a tattoo that creates the appearance of hair follicles. SMP is performed over a series of sessions, spaced 4 weeks apart. Once the skin has healed and the tattoo pigment has settled, we assess the results to see where more pigment and density can and should be added. The SMP pigment will gradually fade and touch ups will eventually be needed.

-Does it hurt?
Some patients fall asleep during the procedure while others experience modest discomfort. The sensation is commonly described as a 3 on a pain scale of 1-10. We use a topical anesthetic to make your SMP procedure as comfortable as possible.

-How many sessions will it take to see the final outcome?
The final results are usually visible after the 2nd or 4th session. This can vary from person to person.

-Why can’t it be done in one session? Isn’t it a tattoo?
The first session is used to create a framework for the following sessions. Pigment absorbs more easily in some skin types than in others, so follow-up sessions help determine where pigment needs to be reinforced and where extra density needs to be added to create an even look.

-How long does each session take?
It varies depending on the size of the area. The procedure can be as short as 45 minutes or take as long as 6 hours.

-How long does it last?
2-10 years. Skin type, sun exposure, and chemicals impact retention.

-Will SMP damage my hair follicles?
The needle and pigment used in SMP do not penetrate deep enough to reach, or damage, the hair follicle. SMP can be used after a hair transplant to add the appearance of density in regions where the hair is still thin.

-What if my hair goes gray or white in the future?
The pigments used in SMP are designed to naturally soften over the years. All hair, even white hair, appears darker underneath the skin, for this reason its still able to blend within white hair naturally.

Reasons to consider getting permanent makeup:

1. Convenience and Time-Saving:

Low maintenance:
It's nearly maintenance-free, meaning no more smudging or reapplying throughout the day.

Enhanced morning routine:
This can be particularly beneficial for busy individuals or those with mobility or vision issues that make makeup application challenging.

2. Confidence and Self-Esteem Boost:

It can help those with conditions like alopecia, trichotillomania, or facial scars feel more comfortable with their appearance.

The feeling of looking and feeling your best can have a positive impact on overall confidence.

As a paramedical/restorative tattoo artist, my work focuses on helping individuals regain their confidence after surgery or trauma. Unlike traditional tattoos, these procedures are meant to blend in and avoid drawing any attention by camouflaging skin irregularities and recreating the appearance of lost anatomical features.

My expertise includes:
• Reconstruction – Creating realistic areola tattoos, scalp micropigmentation for hair loss, and restoring the appearance of any missing features.
• Skin Camouflage – Reducing the visibility of scars, stretch marks, and vitiligo.
• Scar Revision – Assisting patients post-surgery or after trauma to enhance skin tone and texture.

This is more than ink; it’s a celebration of resilience and the power of healing through art.

Micro-Needling skin grafts due to burns >>SWIPE>> to see before and after photos (10 appointments later). Great improvement in overall skin tone and texture 🙌 Last video shows smoothed out healed surface 😍

More info: Micro-Needling helps break through scar tissue and encourages the skin to restore its natural tone & texture. After each appointment the top layer of the skin will shed and then gets replaced by newer, better, more collagen-rich tissue.

FAQ:
- Yes we numb the area
- It’s a slow process, 5-12 bookings will be made 4-6weeks apart (depending on the severity of the scar)
- It’s best to start microneedling as soon as possible after the injury
- This procedure is GREAT for getting rid of ACNE SCARS ON THE FACE or any scars on the body

Alopecia Areata Treatment
SMP/ Scalp Micro-pigmentation does not only hide the appearance of bald spots by simulating the look of new hair follicles (helping restore some confidence), but the simple act of needling the skin encourages the return of blood flow to the area, bringing with it collagen to promote the growth of new hair.

Not interested in any ink on the Scalp? Micro-Needling is an ink free procedure that will achieve the exact same results 👌 PLEASE NOTE: This procedure is only successful if the Alopecia is dormant / no longer spreading.

What is Alopecia Areata?
It occurs when the immune system attacks hair follicles and may be brought on by severe stress. Its a sudden hair loss that starts with one or more circular bald patches that may overlap.
