Frequently Asked Questions
What is SMP?
How does SMP work?
Can SMP be combined with other hair restoration treatments?
Yes, SMP can be used alongside other hair restoration treatments, such as hair transplants, to enhance overall density and create a more natural appearance.
How much does SMP cost?
Pricing depends on the area being treated, including density work on the crown, hairline restoration, full scalp coverage, or a shaved head look. To provide an accurate quote, we recommend a consultation or a clear photo of the treatment area.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes, we provide flexible financing options for clients looking for a payment plan that suits their needs.
What are the benefits of SMP?
SMP offers several benefits, including:
- The appearance of a fuller head of hair
- Concealing bald spots and thinning areas
- Camouflaging scars and transplant marks
- A low-maintenance, long-lasting solution for hair loss
How long does an SMP procedure take?
Treatment time varies depending on the size of the area and the desired density, but sessions typically last several hours.
Can SMP be used to conceal scars or hair transplant marks?
Yes, SMP is highly effective in concealing scars, including those from hair transplants, by blending the pigment with the surrounding hair and skin tone.
What is the recovery time after an SMP procedure?
Recovery is minimal, with slight redness or tenderness that usually subsides within a few days.
Are there any post-treatment restrictions?
To ensure proper healing and pigment retention, it’s best to avoid excessive sun exposure and activities that cause excessive sweating for a few weeks after treatment.
Is SMP suitable for both men and women?
Yes, SMP is a great option for both men and women experiencing hair loss, thinning hair, or those looking to enhance their hairline.
How does SMP differ from traditional hair tattooing?
Unlike regular tattoos, SMP uses specialized pigments and techniques to create the appearance of natural hair follicles, resulting in a more realistic and natural-looking finish.
Can SMP be customized to match different hair colors and styles?
Yes, SMP is fully customizable to match different hair colors, styles, and skin tones, ensuring a seamless and natural appearance.
Is SMP a good option for people with thinning hair?
Absolutely. SMP can add the illusion of density by filling in gaps between existing hair follicles, making hair appear fuller and thicker.
Does SMP require touch-up sessions?
Yes, depending on factors such as skin type and lifestyle, touch-up sessions may be needed every few years to maintain the desired look.
How long does SMP last before needing a touch-up?
On average, SMP lasts 4 to 5 years before requiring a minor touch-up to refresh the pigment and maintain its natural appearance.
Can SMP create the appearance of a shaved head or buzz cut?
Yes, SMP can replicate the look of a closely shaved head or buzz cut by mimicking the appearance of natural hair follicles on the scalp.
