I could not be happier - this has changed my life around. I feel way more confident, and I look at least ten years younger. The procedure itself was completely painless.

Got Questions?
Get answers to the most common questions about scalp micropigmentation.
- What is Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP)?
- Scalp Micropigmentation is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses micro-needles to deposit pigment into the scalp, creating the appearance of tiny hair follicles. It's designed to replicate the natural look of real hair follicles, giving the appearance of a fuller head of hair or a clean-shaven look.
- How long does SMP last?
- SMP is considered a permanent procedure that typically lasts for years. The longevity depends on factors like sun exposure, skin type, and aftercare. With proper care, including using sunscreen on your scalp, your results will last longer.
- Is SMP painful?
- Most clients describe the sensation as mild discomfort rather than pain. We use numbing agents to minimize any discomfort during the procedure. The scalp is less sensitive than many other areas, and most clients find the experience very manageable.
- How many sessions are needed?
- Typically, 2-5 sessions are required to achieve optimal results, depending on skin texture. Sessions are spaced 7-14 days apart to allow proper healing. The first session creates the foundation, and subsequent sessions build density and refine the hairline.
- Will SMP look natural?
- When performed by an experienced artist like Gil, SMP looks incredibly natural. We carefully match pigment to your natural hair color and skin tone, and use precise techniques to replicate the size and pattern of real hair follicles. Most people won't be able to tell you've had the procedure.
- Can SMP cover scars or alopecia?
- Yes! SMP is excellent for camouflaging scars from hair transplants, injuries, or surgeries. It's also highly effective for various types of alopecia, including alopecia areata, totalis, and pattern baldness. The pigment helps blend the affected areas with surrounding hair.
- What's the recovery time?
- There's minimal downtime with SMP. You may experience slight redness for 24-48 hours after each session. You should avoid swimming, heavy sweating, and direct sun exposure for about 4-5 days after each session. Most clients return to normal activities immediately.
- Will the pigment turn blue or green over time?
- We use only premium organic pigments specifically designed for scalp micropigmentation that will not turn blue, green, or any unnatural color. Lower quality inks or inexperienced practitioners may use pigments that fade to unwanted colors, but our organic pigments maintain a natural appearance.
- How much does SMP cost?
- The cost varies depending on the extent of treatment needed. We offer flexible financing through CareCredit starting at just $40/week with 0% interest options available. Plus, new clients can save up to $1,000 on their treatment. We offer free consultations where we assess your specific situation and provide a personalized quote tailored to your needs.
- Do you offer free consultations?
- Yes! We offer completely free, no-obligation consultations. During your consultation, Gil will assess your hair loss, discuss your goals, show you before/after photos, and provide a customized treatment plan and pricing.
