When doing your research on the Scalp Micropigmentation procedure, there are always important facts you must remember. Here are some important facts we want you to remember –
Men and women with varied hair problems can utilize the treatment. For those who suffer with alopecia, thinning hair, pattern baldness, and those who want to camouflage scars, SMP is an option for you.
Multiple sessions will be required. Be careful if someone promises you will only need one treatment. The only time you require one session is if you are coming in for a top up of the procedure you had many years prior. You will require three and sometimes four appointments to achieve results. During the procedure, we will use an electric tattoo device with micro-needles that will penetrate the skin carefully placing dots of pigment into the skin. Session one is used to work on the entire area the treatment is required while sessions two and three are used to see how the pigment took to the scalp and to build density.
Even if you’ve already had a hair transplant done, scalp micropigmentation can be used. Many people will come to have scalp micropigmentation even after a hair transplant to add further density and the appearance of volume to the scalp.
Customize your hairline to achieve a new look. Working with a professional means you will have the skill and accuracy to customise your hairline and create an all-new style and look or make it as natural as possible. Ensure you do a lot of research on your hairline as it Ian extremely important aspect of the procedure.
Scalp micropigmentation is low/no maintenance. Once you’ve completed your scalp micropigmentation sessions, you won’t have to do much to maintain it. Sunscreen is advised to be used (an SPF of 50 or higher is strongly recommended) and exfoliation is recommended to be avoided. These steps protect the pigment intensity so you won’t have to return for a touch-up for a while. Please note – a top-up is required approximately every 4-6 years.
Scar coverage is another great benefit. In addition to helping create the appearance of hair follicles, scalp micropigmentation can also be used to cover up and mask the appearance of scars on the scalp. Whether they are FUE or FUT transplant scars or scars from other head trauma or neurosurgery. With careful placement of dots of pigment, it is possible to conceal where a scar exists so it blends in with the rest of the hair.
Scalp micropigmentation is a more affordable and easier alternative to hair transplants. Instead of having to sit through skin grafts and surgical transplantations into the head, this requires no downtime and can last for years before fading or requiring a touch-up. Where as a hair transplant can take between six to twelve months to properly heal, you will be healed from an SMP procedure in only a few days.
