Scalp micropigmentation, also known as hair tattoo, hairline tattoo, micro pigment scalp, micro scalp, micropigmentation, or tattoos on the hairline, is a non-surgical hair loss treatment that uses advanced cosmetic tattooing techniques to replicate the appearance of natural hair follicles. Anderson Center for Hair partners with Scalp Clinique Micro, ensuring a dedicated expert for the process. By depositing organic pigments into the scalp, SMP creates the illusion of a fuller, denser head of hair, perfect for those experiencing thinning hair, receding hairlines, or baldness.

While both SMP and traditional tattoos involve depositing pigments into the skin, SMP uses specialized equipment, needles, and pigments designed specifically for replicating the appearance of hair follicles. The depth of pigment placement and the techniques used in SMP are different from traditional tattooing, ensuring a more natural and realistic result.

SMP is considered a semi-permanent treatment, as the pigments will gradually fade over time. The longevity of the results can vary depending on factors such as sun exposure, skin type, and aftercare. Touch-up sessions may be required every 3-5 years to maintain the desired appearance.

At Anderson Center for Hair, in partnership with Scalp Clinique Micro, we use a multi-session approach to ensure optimal results and safety. Typically, 2-4 sessions are required, with each session spaced approximately 2-4 weeks apart. The exact number of sessions will depend on the individual's hair loss severity and desired outcome.

The level of discomfort experienced during SMP varies from person to person. Some clients may feel mild discomfort, while others may find the procedure relatively painless. Our skilled practitioners use advanced techniques and equipment to minimize discomfort during the treatment.

Each SMP session, including micro scalp and micropigmentation, can take anywhere from 2-4 hours, depending on the size of the treatment area and the complexity of the hair loss pattern. Our multi-session approach allows us to gradually build up the desired density and appearance of your hair, ensuring optimal results.

The recovery time for SMP is relatively minimal. Most clients can return to their daily activities within 24-48 hours after the treatment. Some redness and mild swelling may occur, but these side effects typically subside within a few days.

The cost of SMP varies depending on the extent of hair loss, the number of sessions required, and the specific treatment plan. During your free consultation at Anderson Center for Hair, our experts will assess your hair loss concerns and provide you with a personalized quote based on your needs.
