See the difference with medical tattooing for hair loss
If you’re feeling at a loss, there is an effective solution to lack of hair on brows, lash line and scalp.
Hair is often referred to as your ‘crowning glory’ and is a key part of our identity. But sometimes hair loss can occur from an early age, for a variety of reasons, resulting in baldness, thinning hair or scarring on the scalp, eyebrow or around the eye.
A change of facial features is one of the areas that has the biggest impact psychologically.
Medical tattooing has the answer to restoring many features such as eyebrows, eye definition and small patches of hairless due to illness, surgery or medical treatments. These areas can be visible and for both men and women, can cause worry and anxiety, often leading to a lack of confidence and significant stress.
How can medical tattooing help?
- hairloss patches
- thinning hair
- eyebrow thinning and loss
- eyelash thinning and loss
- scarring to the brow area and scalp
- scarring following hair replacement treatment
- alopecia
Searching for “Scalp Micropigmentation Surrey”?
I am based in a state of the art clinic in Reigate, Surrey, just off the M25. If you are Searching for “Scalp Micropigmentation Surrey” you have come to the right place.
How does it work?
After the area is fully healed, pigments can be used to imitate hair follicles. This will be performed in a few sessions, building up the colour and detail over time. The larger the area concerned, typically more sessions are required.
After a treatment the area will look red, sometimes raised and darker than the desired result. It can take three to seven days to heal, slight sloughing may occur, and then the colour will look approximately 50% lighter.
With scalp density work, ink is used in place of pigment so the results are longer lasting and only require a slight colour boost every five to ten years.
Medical Tattooing with pigment can last between one to five years before a Colour Boost may be needed.
The risks involved are minimal;
- As with all injection sites there is a risk of infection. To minimise this risk the aftercare needs to be adhered to. A dressing can be applied for the initial 48 hours to help reduce this risk.
- On a few occasions the skin does not retain the pigment well.
Consultation
An initial consultation of half an hour is required to determine patient expectations, suitability of treatment, full medical history in order for a treatment plan to be drawn up.
Pre-Treatment
24 hours prior; do not take the following substances: Stimulants: Tea, coffee, soft drinks with caffeine or other substances containing stimulants.
Treatment
The number of sessions will depend upon the size of the area to be treated, the level of discolouration and how well the aftercare is adhered to.
The treatment is NOT painful but can be tender.
Cost is applied per treatment sequence and will be discussed during the consultation.

Rae Denman
My medical tattooing and cosmetic permanent make up practice is all about you, the client. I combine my extensive training, medical background and body art skills with a warm, empathetic approach to make you feel completely at ease. If you’re here because you want to address a visible difference, you can be confident that this is the first step towards a reinvigorated confidence and zest for getting on with your life.
If you want to enhance your features through skilfully applied semi-permanent makeup, you can be confident too; that you’ll get stunning results in a safe and high-quality environment.
As a specialist Medical Tattooist based in the South East of England, I have developed a reputation for scar camouflage and facial feature restoration in the field of Permanent Cosmetics, Medical Tattooing and Skin Camouflage.
I am a member of The British Association of Skin Camouflage and trained with them for temporary coverage of burns and scars and The Finishing Touches Group for Permanent Cosmetics and Medical Tattooing. Since then I have undertaken further specialist training with Nouveau Contour for brows and lips, and The Linda Paradis Group for tattoo removal.
I am founder of BAMT (The British Association of Medical Tattooing) which was driven by my concerns that the industry was both unregulated and too easily allowed vulnerable clients to progress through escalating fixations on procedures. Our goal is to promote ethics in aesthetics.
As well as the private sector, I led NHS clinics at the Burns and Plastics unit, Morriston Hospital, Swansea, specialising in nipple/areola tattooing and temporary camouflage cover of burns and scars. I now run private clinics from Harley Street Skin Clinic in Reigate, Surrey, The London Bridge Plastic Surgery in London, and The McIndoe Centre in East Grinstead.
I was awarded the 20 years of excellence Life Changing Procedure for my work with nipple areola tattooing.
I featured on ITV ‘This Morning with Lorraine Kelly’ performing hair stroke brows for a feature on anti-ageing alongside Dr Khan and Dr Devine.
I collaborated with The Katie Piper Foundation and The Telegraph to create a time-lapse video of myself applying Camouflage and Makeup on a burns survivor demonstrating the positive effects this has on her physical and mental wellbeing.
I am a consultant and stockist for Veil Cover Cream UK who have launched the 'Rae Denman Range' of 10 beautiful new shades of cover cream which I developed from years of experience and changing skin tones.
I'm delighted to have contributed towards a Research Paper with The Centre for Appearance Research - My face in someone else’s hands’: a qualitative study of medical tattooing in women with hair loss Psychology, Health & Medicine publication Feb 9, 2021
My career has exposed me to a wealth of experience in understanding and communicating with clientele from varied backgrounds and social circles, each with different needs and expectations.
I’m passionate about using my skill and precision with detail to offer a high-end service and truly care about helping each individual find confidence within their appearance.
