Experiencing hair loss, whether due to alopecia, chemotherapy, genetics, or other conditions, can be incredibly distressing. Medical tattooing offers a non-surgical, transformative solution to restore the appearance of hair density and create a natural-looking hairline.
What is Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP)?
Scalp micro pigmentation (SMP) is a specialized procedure that implants tiny patterns that mimic both hair follicles,and fine hair lines.
It helps camouflage receding and thinning areas, that results in a fuller looking scalp with more colour and density.
It can achieve a shaved or ‘buzzed’ look for people who are experiencing baldness or pattern baldness, or create a fuller and thicker look for people with thinning hair and exposed scalps
Who is Scalp Micropigmentation For?
Simply put, SMP is the answer for anyone who may be experiencing a receding hairline, thinning hair, hair loss and/ or pattern baldness.
How Many SMP Sessions are Required?
People should expect a minimum of 3 sessions.
That said, the number of sessions required will vary from person to person depending on their needs, and the severity of hair thinning or hair loss.
I will examine the level of hair loss and discuss the clients’ desired results and the level of colour density they would like to achieve.
Results can be expected to last 2-5 years, but as with all medical and cosmetic tattooing procedures, fading will occur over time, and may vary from person to person.
When fading starts to become noticeable, it’s time for a touch up!
Understanding the Challenge:
Hair loss can manifest in various ways, from thinning hair to complete baldness, significantly impacting one’s self-perception.
The Solution:
I offer different approaches tailored to your specific needs:
- Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP): For individuals with complete hair loss or significant thinning, SMP involves depositing tiny, hair-follicle-like impressions onto the scalp. This creates the illusion of a closely shaven head or adds density to thinning areas, mimicking natural hair growth.
- Hairline Restoration: SMP can be used to create or redefine a natural-looking hairline, framing the face and restoring a youthful appearance.
- Density Enhancement: For clients with diffuse thinning, SMP can add the appearance of greater hair density, reducing the contrast between hair and scalp.
- ISR Microneedling (when possible): Using a medical grade serum produced specifically for hair regrowth and regeneration, combined with the regenerative results of micro-traumas caused by microneedling techniques, this has proven positive results for many people.
