SMP FOR BALDNESS
Recent statistics show that 50% of Men over the age of 50 have some form of hair loss. The most common form of hair loss is called Androgenic Alopecia, or male pattern baldness.
There are many over the counter medications and topical solutions to try and stop or reverse thinning or balding, however, over time this will eventually lead to the inevitable – hair loss.
Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) for baldness is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure designed to create the appearance of a fuller head of hair and that buzz cut look for individuals dealing with hair loss or baldness. It is a form of tattooing or permanent makeup for the scalp. SMP involves the use of specialised pigments and fine needles to deposit tiny, ink-like dots on the scalp in a way that mimics the look of hair follicles.
Here’s How The Process Generally Works
- Consultation: Before the procedure, you’ll typically have a consultation with our trained SMP technician or practitioner. During this consultation, you’ll discuss your goals and expectations, and the technician to determine the best approach.
- Design: The technician will work with you to design the desired hairline, density, and overall look. They’ll take into account factors like your skin tone and hair colour to ensure the pigmentation matches your natural appearance.
- Pigmentation: During the actual procedure, the technician will use a specialised SMP machine to deposit pigment into the upper layers of your scalp. They’ll carefully place these dots in a way that replicates the pattern of hair growth and the natural hairline. The pigment colour is typically matched to your existing hair colour for a seamless blend.
- Multiple Sessions: SMP is usually done in multiple sessions to achieve the desired density and colour. Each session may last a few hours, and there is typically a healing period between sessions of a minimum of 7 days.
- Healing: After each session, your scalp may appear slightly red or irritated, but this usually subsides within a few days. It’s important to follow post-care instructions provided by your technician to ensure proper healing and pigment retention.
Benefits Of Scalp Micropigmentation Include:
- Natural Appearance: SMP provides a natural and realistic-looking solution for individuals with baldness or thinning hair.
- Non-Invasive: Unlike hair transplant surgery, SMP is a non-surgical procedure that doesn’t require any incisions or recovery time.
- Low Maintenance: Once completed, SMP requires minimal maintenance. You can continue your regular grooming routine without the need for special products or daily upkeep.
- Confidence Boost: Many people who undergo SMP report an increase in self-confidence and improved self-esteem due to the enhanced appearance it provides.
