SCALP DENSITY MICROPIGMENTATION
FOR WOMEN
FOR MEN
What is Scalp Micropigmentation?
Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a highly specialized, non-invasive procedure designed to replicate the look of natural hair follicles. Through a detailed process of creating thousands of micro-impressions on the scalp, SMP gives the appearance of increased hair density by blending seamlessly with your existing hair. This technique provides a fuller, more voluminous look, offering the illusion of up to ten times more hair. Many individuals turn to temporary solutions like hair fibers or sprays to conceal thinning areas. However, SMP offers a more permanent and natural-looking alternative without the hassle of daily maintenance. With SMP, you no longer need to worry about sweating, swimming, or staining your clothes and pillowcases. It allows you to live confidently without constantly managing your hair concerns. Typically, SMP requires at least 3-6 sessions to achieve the desired result, with each session carefully layered to create a realistic, three-dimensional effect. The procedure involves little to no downtime, allowing you to return to your regular activities quickly. While some clients find the sensation mild, we offer numbing cream for added comfort if needed. SMP is not limited to men with shaved heads; it is an excellent solution for both men and women, regardless of hair length. In addition to creating the appearance of fuller hair, SMP can effectively conceal scars from hair transplants, alopecia, forehead reductions, or past injuries, providing a versatile solution to various hair loss challenges.
How many treatments do I need?
Scalp Micropigmentation is a process that typically requires 3 to 6 sessions, spaced 2 to 3 weeks apart. This time frame is essential for achieving the most natural, long-lasting results, as it allows your skin to fully heal and adapt between sessions. The gradual buildup of pigment is key to creating a realistic, three-dimensional effect that mimics natural hair follicles. During the first session, some pigment may be absorbed or rejected by the skin. This is normal and expected, which is why the second session is so critical. By the second session, we are able to build density, making significant improvements as we begin layering the pigment more effectively. Monitoring how your skin responds after the initial session helps us tailor the second and third treatments to ensure the best possible outcome. By the third session, the desired density and appearance are typically achieved, with the scalp looking fuller and more natural. In cases where additional density or specific corrections are needed, up to six sessions may be recommended for optimal results. The procedure itself involves minimal downtime, allowing you to resume your regular activities shortly after each session. For clients who may be concerned about discomfort, we offer numbing cream to ensure a comfortable experience throughout the process, though most find the sensation tolerable. The key to long-lasting, realistic results is patience and allowing each session to build upon the previous one.
How long is each treatment?
Each session is 2-4 hours depending on the work at hand. The first treatment is typically the longest as we are constructing the hairline and putting in the foundational layer. Each subsequent treatment is typically shorter, although this can vary based on retention of previous treatments.
Who decides on the construction of the hairline?
There are factors that determine what hairline is suitable for you. We tailor the hairline to your individual features in order to create the most natural and appropriate result. We also account for your personal preferences, as there is a range of options for what can look natural on any given person.
How long does it last?
Typically with our clients we expect touch ups within the 3-6 years mark. This is a permanent procedure which will last forever, but there is normal wear and tear involved in the surface of the skin which causes it to lighten up over time. A Touch-up session can be scheduled to refresh the tattoo color if desired.
What are Aftercare instructions?
It is crucial you follow our 4 day post-treatment instructions to prevent excessive fading and all forms of contamination. Essentially the instructions are no touching, washing, cutting, and no working out for the first 4 days. You can wear a hat immediately after each treatment. Don’t worry about sleeping on it, the pigment won’t smudge or smear on your pillows. See the PDF attached for the full aftercare instructions.
What is the downtime?
Scalp Micropigmentation is non-invasive and nonsurgical. There is no downtime associated with it, you only need to follow the 4 day aftercare. Many of our clients come in for treatment and go back home on the same day, and start work again the following day.
Will people be able to tell that I have the treatment done?
Initially after the first treatment the pigments will look bolder as they are freshly deposited. Overnight you will notice the pigments softening and settling down. As for the redness, it will disappear in 48-72 hours. Intensity of redness is based on sensitivity of the skin, but more or less clients will notice significantly less redness 48 hours after the first treatment. After the initial settling process is finished, your treatment will look completely natural.
Does it hurt?
For most clients who undergo SMP, the pain is not as intense as a traditional tattoo. Pain tolerance is case to case per client, but your health and safety is our priority. Our practitioners will ensure the process is as smooth as possible.
