FREQUENTLY ASKED QUSTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions - Top Ink SMP

1. What is Scalp Micro Pigmentation (SMP)? SMP is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure where specialized needles are used to implant pigment into the scalp. This creates the appearance of tiny hair follicles or short hair stubble, enhancing the look of density in thinning areas.

2. How long does the SMP procedure take? The duration of the procedure depends on the size of the area being treated. Typically, it can take anywhere from 2 to 5 hours per session, and most clients require 2-3 sessions spaced a few weeks apart.

3. Does the procedure hurt? Everyone's pain threshold is different. Some clients describe the sensation similar to light scratching, while others say it feels like getting a regular tattoo. We do our best to ensure maximum comfort, and numbing agents can be applied if needed.

4. How long does SMP last? SMP is semi-permanent. The results can last for several years. Over time, the pigments might gradually fade. Touch-ups can be done every 4-6 years or as needed.

5. Can I undergo SMP if I'm completely bald? Absolutely! SMP is perfect for creating the illusion of a full head of shaven hair or enhancing the density in thinning areas.

6. How soon can I return to my regular activities after the procedure? Most clients can return to their routine the next day. However, we advise against rigorous physical activities and direct sun exposure for a few days post-treatment to ensure the best pigment retention.

7. Will the result look natural? Yes. Our skilled practitioners prioritize creating a look that mimics natural hair patterns and blends seamlessly with your existing hair, ensuring a realistic finish.

8. Can I undergo SMP if I have scars on my scalp? Definitely. SMP is an excellent solution for camouflaging scars, be they from surgeries, injuries, or hair transplant procedures.
