What is SMP?
Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP for short) is sometimes also referred to as a hair tattoo or ‘hair pigmentation’.
It is a form of cosmetic tattooing typically for people who are balding, thinning or have apparent spots on their head lacking hair, that gives the realistic appearance
of hair follicles.
SMP is suitable for both men and women and can greatly improve the appearance
of hair loss. SMP is different than traditional tattooing as the needle does not penetrate the skin as deeply, and it uses vegan, organic carbon-based pigment
that won’t turn blue like a traditional tattoo might.
Q & A
Do I Need to Shave My Hair?
For SMP density treatments, it is not necessary to shave your head. Unlike the SMP shaved look, where a closely shaved head is desired, SMP density treatments aim to create the illusion of thicker and denser hair by adding pigment to the scalp around the exisiting hair follicles. In most cases, you can keep your existing hair at its preferred length during the procedure.
However, we do recommend to cut your hair to the shortest length that you aim to wear your hair as this allows for better visibility and precision during the treatment. We will work with you to determine the optimal hair length that ensures effective results while maintaining your desired style.
During the consultation, we will assess your specific situation and discuss the best approach for your SMP density treatment. We take into consideration factors such as your current hair density, desired outcome, and overall aesthetic goals. By customizing the treatment plan to your unique needs, we can help you achieve the desired density while preserving your preferred hair length.
Does SMP Hurt?
The level of discomfort during the SMP density treatment is generally minimal. Most clients describe the sensation as mild and liken it to a slight discomfort or tingling. We can apply a topical anesthetic to minimize any potential discomfort.
How long does SMP with long hair take?
The duration of the SMP density treatment depends on various factors such as the size of the treated area and the desired density. Typically, each session takes a few hours, and requires 2 to 3 sessions to achieve the desired results.
How long does SMP last with long hair?
SMP density treatment provides long-lasting results. However, the longevity can vary depending on individual factors, such as skin type, sun exposure, and lifestyle. With proper care and maintenance, results last for several years before requiring touch-up sessions.
What happens if my hair goes grey?
Scalp micropigmentation hair thickening treatment for men is designed to adapt and accommodate changes in your hair, including the natural greying process. While SMP does
fade over time, it remains effective even as your hair turns grey.
Unlike traditional tattoos which are deposited deeper into the skin, SMP scalp micropigmentation fades over time. As your hair transitions to grey, the color of the tiny SMP dots will also soften over time. This gradual fading ensures a natural appearance and allows for a seamless blend between your grey hair and the pigmented dots. The fading process aligns with the gradual greying of your hair, so the transition should not pose any issues.
Regular maintenance and touch-ups are recommended to maintain the desired results. However,
if your dark hair starts turning grey, you have the option to skip or delay touch-up sessions. This approach allows the SMP results to be less prominent than when your hair was dark, blending harmoniously with your evolving hair colour.
What length should my hair be for a shaved head SMP?
For the SMP shaved hair tattoo look, it's recommended to keep your hair at a length of 0.5mm to 1mm. This length helps to create a natural-looking shadow effect that mimics the appearance of hair stubble on a closely shaved head. It's important to maintain this length regularly to maintain the desired look. Depending on how quickly your hair grows, you may need to trim your hair every few days to a week to maintain the desired length. Your SMP practitioner can provide guidance on the best way to maintain your hair length for the SMP shaved hair tattoo.
