FAQs
Is Scalp Micro-Pigmentation permanent?
SMP is considered a long-lasting treatment but not entirely permanent. The pigments typically last 4–6 years before gradual fading may occur. Touch-ups are recommended every few years to maintain the appearance. Proper aftercare, such as avoiding prolonged sun exposure, can help extend the results.
Does Scalp Micro-Pigmentation look natural?
When performed by an experienced artist, SMP can look very natural. The technique involves matching pigment color to the individual’s skin tone and existing hair, carefully placing micro-dots to replicate the appearance of real hair follicles.
How many sessions are required for Scalp Micro-Pigmentation?
Most SMP treatments require 2–4 sessions, spaced about a week apart. Each session builds upon the previous one to create a realistic, layered effect. The exact number of sessions needed depends on the extent of hair loss and the desired look. A consultation is required to assess each individual's needs and desired outcome.
How much does Scalp Micro-Pigmentation cost?
The cost of SMP varies depending on individual needs, such as the size of the treatment area, the level of hair loss, and the desired outcome. Smaller areas, like scar concealment, typically cost less, while full scalp treatments may be more expensive. On average, prices can range from $500 to $4,000.
