Electropigmentation
Electropigmentation is a corrective cosmetic technique that is classified as "non-surgical". Lots of people take advantage of electropigmentation to have makeup permanently applied, most often eyeliner or lip pigmentation; some individuals use electropigmentation to correct facial asymmetries or to mask scars.

The procedure generally used for clinical electropigmentation is identical to tattooing. Pigments are blended and then applied using a series of needles. Electropigmentation puts the pigment just below the dermis layer of the skin. When a correctly trained electropigmentation technician performs the procedure, the outcome is usually very natural, with the pigments used for electropigmentation blending with the skin tone. Certainly, some people request a more dramatic look, and electropigmentation can provide that as well. The technician should analyze all the aspects of electropigmentation and be certain that the appropriate pigments are selected to produce the desired effect. Electropigmentation usually involves little pain or discomfort, but there are topical anesthetics available for use during electropigmentation treatment. Most patients are happyly returning to work the same day as their electropigmentation procedure, and swelling and bruising are rare. For prevention fading, a second electropigmentation treatment may be performed, although most patients see the desired effect after the initial electropigmentation procedure. The instant result will look slightly darker than the final outcome; results of the electropigmentation are usually visible within 3-5 days of treatment.
