What is Scalp Micropigmentation?
Scalp Micropigmentation is a cosmetic procedure that involves the application of tiny, permanent pigment deposits to the scalp. The goal is to create the illusion of a full head of hair, creating natural-looking coverage for areas with thinning or balding hair. It is also used to camouflage scars from hair transplantation procedures or other causes.
The procedure itself consists of the application of pigment deposit on the surface level of the scalp in order to replicate hair follicles, giving off an appearance as though it were shaved or cut very short. Pigment deposit are applied by a professional technician using a specialized tattoo device and special pigments that are made specifically for SMP procedures. Depending on how much coverage desired, multiple treatments may be necessary, however results can often be seen after just one session.
One great aspect about Scalp Micropigmentation is that it’s a non-invasive treatment so there’s no damage done to existing hair follicles as there would be with transplants and other surgical treatments, making it ideal for those who don’t want to go through surgery but still want to achieve more fullness and coverage in their scalp. Moreover, due to its non-invasive nature, there’s no downtime required after undergoing an SMP procedure – meaning you can get back your normal routine almost immediately afterwards!
The results can last anywhere from 3-5 years depending on various factors such as lifestyle choices like sun exposure and skin type. That being said, regular maintenance sessions are recommended every few years in order to ensure long lasting results and maintain optimal colour vibrancy over time.
Overall, Scalp Micropigmentation is becoming an increasingly popular option amongst those looking for natural-looking solutions for balding or thinning areas in their scalp – providing quick, semi-permanent results without any significant changes or invasiveness associated with surgical procedures.
