Hair loss can affect all people for a variety of reasons. Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is the practice of tattooing very tiny realistic looking hair follicles into the scalp. It can help with total hairloss, patchy hairloss, receding hairlines, thinning hair and alopecia sufferers amongst many other reasons. SMP can simulate a full shaved head or it can be blended to create density in thinning hair or to help disguise balding areas of the scalp.
SMP treatments are usually over three treatments, varying from 2 to 5 hours each time. There is no downtime for this treatment. Your scalp may feel hot and a bit tender but this passes quickly and heals very quickly.
We offer a free consultation service for anyone who is unsure of the options or feel a little nervous about the treatment. If you know you are ready and just want to get booked in, we will consult and talk you through everything on treatment day. We will chat about your expectations, your thoughts and wishes and the options available to you.
We may also run through some of your medical data if we see anything that needs further investigation. Your safety is of utmost importance to us.
Using a very fine needle or needles, the SMP procedure gives the effect of simulated hair follicles. Each treatment starts with mapping and drawing a shape that suits your face, head shape and expectations No stencils and no gimmicks, just an artistic eye and experience.
Once you are happy with our drawing and guidelines, we begin the tattooing process. The discomfort is very minimal. We do stretch the skin tightly but this causes no pain. It makes the skin nice and taught for the perfect tattoo.
Most people enjoy the appointment and are very pleasantly surprised by how relaxed it is. We will pop some music on or a movie on for you
