SMP Treatments

During a Scalp Micropigmentation consultation, Rebecca will want to understand the results the client would like to achieve.

Results are always the starting point as we want to ensure you get precisely what you require. Next, Rebecca will discuss a bespoke treatment plan outlining the number of sessions, action plan, cost, and aftercare protocol.

She will also discuss the equipment and pigments used and answer any other queries that a client may have. Furthermore, she can even arrange for you to meet with someone who has had Scalp Micropigmentation done by her to see how excellent her work is. You will also get a reliable account of what the procedure feels like and how transformative the process is.

The first tool used is the artist’s knowledge. She will carry out a thorough consultation to fully assess your specific situation. Then, a treatment plan and pricing will be agreed upon.

Moving forward, your hairline will be mapped out in line with your features.  The treatment itself uses medical-grade pigment and smaller needles than regular tattoos. Meaning the pigment does not age or fade in the same way, and the treatment is much less painful.

Session time can vary depending upon the work required. 1-2 hours is a helpful guide.  To make it easier for you, we are available for evening and weekend appointments across 2 locations.  

The great news is that you will see beneficial results after the first treatment.

The artist builds the desired effect over multiple sessions but covers the whole area during each session. Once a session is completed, it is normal to see redness in the treated area.

Full Head SMP – The appearance of a full head of shaved hair, with a restored natural hairline & crown

Density SMP – The appearance of thicker, fuller-looking hair in the desired areas, matched to your current colour and tones

Hairline and/or Crown – A natural-looking restored hairline and or crown blending in with your current hair

Scar Transplant Cover-Up – Camouflaging of scarred / donor areas

Female SMP – The appearance of thicker, fuller-looking hair in the desired area’s

Alopecia – Full restoration of a natural-looking full head of shaved hair with a restored natural hairline & crown (we can also restore eyebrows)

The good news is that SMP is a permanent solution, meaning the return of your confidence will also be!

However, over the years, the treatment will fade slightly, so we recommend getting a top-up. The time to need a top-up can vary from client to client and relies upon factors such as skin-type and lifestyle. However, as a guide we would say that once every 2 years would suffice.

Everyone feels pain in different ways but from our own experience and our clients we can say there isn’t much pain at all.

The sensation is more discomfort than pain. For those that have had a tattoo, Scalp Micropigmentation is much less painful.

Again, this can vary, but 3-4 is a helpful guide. This will be agreed during the consultation.

Sessions need to be spaced out 7-10 days apart to let the pigment settle properly.

The good news is, yes, you can. However, we would always recommend that you wait 12 months from the transplant date.

Scalp Micropigmentation Aftercare starts before the first session!

So, on the days leading up to your first appointment, it is essential to exfoliate & moisturize. Also, it is vital to ensure your scalp is clean on the day of your sessions.

After your treatment, it is essential not to get your head wet or sweat for 7 days which can cause the ink not to settle properly. After 4 days, it is possible to apply a small amount of water with the hands to clean the scalp but ensure you don’t expose your scalp to direct water sources, e.g., showering.

After 7 days, you can shower and resume physical activity that would cause you to sweat.

Long term aftercare regimens include daily moisturizing of the SMP area

One of the many excellent benefits of Scalp Micropigmentation is the procedure’s non-surgical, non-invasive nature. Meaning there is minimal disruption to busy schedules.

So, whether you have a hectic work schedule or spend a lot of time doing physical activity, Scalp Micropigmentation can and will fit around your life.

We offer weekend and evening appointments at 2 clinic locations in the Northwest and will be able to plan in sessions for you. So, you can factor in things like gym sessions around your treatment and aftercare schedule.
