Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a non-invasive cosmetic tattooing procedure that uses specialized pigments to replicate the appearance of hair follicles on the scalp. It is commonly used to camouflage hair loss, create the illusion of a fuller head of hair, and enhance the overall appearance of the scalp.
Yes, SMP is suitable for both men and women experiencing hair loss, thinning hair, or scalp scars. Our SMP treatments are tailored to each client’s unique needs and aesthetic goals, regardless of gender.
The longevity of SMP results can vary depending on factors such as skin type, lifestyle, and sun exposure. In general, SMP is considered a semi-permanent solution, with results typically lasting for several years before requiring touch-up sessions to maintain optimal pigmentation and color vibrancy.
Most clients describe SMP as a relatively comfortable procedure, with minimal discomfort during the treatment. We utilize numbing creams and techniques to ensure your comfort throughout the process. Some clients may experience mild discomfort or sensitivity during and immediately after the procedure, but this typically subsides quickly.
The recovery process after SMP is typically straightforward, with minimal downtime. You may experience mild redness, tenderness, or swelling in the treated areas immediately after the procedure, but these side effects usually resolve within a few days. It’s essential to follow post-care instructions provided by your SMP practitioner to ensure optimal healing and long-lasting results.
