SMP will produce the appearance of natural hair follicles by implanting natural black ink into the scalp. SMP outcomes can last up to three to five years before they require a touch-up. The procedure is relatively painless and results in a natural-looking outcome that will boost confidence. If you prefer a shorter hairstyle, SMP will help produce the appearance of hair follicles at the back of the head in cases where there are surgical scars. SMP provides the appearance of full hair for those with longer hair. Consequently, the scar won’t show up because its baldness will be concealed.
The scar tissue can be quite thick and won’t respond to pigments the same way a normal scalp would. For typical treatments, you can expect 3-4 sessions lasting anywhere from 1-6 hours. Additional sessions may be required for surgical scar cases as we evaluate how the area has responded to the treatment. There will be work done on more than just the scar area. To achieve a blended, natural appearance, additional SMP work will be performed in the areas on either side of the scar.
In order to ensure that the injuries are fully healed both internally and externally, the FUT/FUE scar cover with SMP can only be carried out at least 8 to 12 months after the surgery.
