QUESTIONS?
Before we book you in and decide on dates.
There are a few questions that, I need to ask to help us find out if your suitable for this treatment.
Also, it is important before the treatments if you have had any aesthetic treatments to please let me know when, and to avoid sun exposure a week before.
If there is anything that you think that I should be made aware of, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank you

Scalp Micro-pigmentation is a non-invasive treatment that uses detailed micro-needles to deposit pigment into the scalp. The result creates the appearance of tiny hair follicles that help thicken and restore the look of fuller hair.
This creates the illusion of a full head of hair, which can help those with hair loss regain their confidence.
Scalp Micro-pigmentation is a form of permanent cosmetics or permanent makeup. Often referred to as a cosmetic hair or scalp tattoo, this treatment typically lasts 4 - 6 years.
Your immune system will do what it can to disperse the pigmentation within your scalp. Thankfully, this process significantly takes a long time to fade your treatment and is therefore of no real concern in the short to medium term.
Scalp Micro Pigmentation, or SMP for short, is the process of pigmenting the scalp to make it look like you have a real head of shaved hair. Ultimately shaved hair appears as thousands of small 'dots' on the scalp, and SMP aims to replicate this effect using pigments that are effectively tattooed into the skin.
Overall, scalp micro-pigmentation can hurt, but the pain is usually very mild. Paracetamol may be taken if you suffer pain & discomfort.
Although a fully shaven head is most common for Scalp Micro-pigmentation, many clients receive treatment to add density to thinning hair or bald spots, in which case shaving is not necessary.
For this kind of treatment to have a natural appearance, it is necessary to have hair distributed all over the head.
It would only require two to three days for the redness to go away and about a month for the pigments to settle in and fade.
The entire healing process only takes about seven days though there will be slight variations depending on the patient.
SMP (Scalp Micro-Pigmentation) will not damage hair follicles as the hair follicles are much deeper in the scalp than the pigment is placed.
Micro-Pigmentation is not the same as tattooing, so the results will be different. Most importantly, the pigment is unlikely to spread. Professionals will use needles that embed deep into the dermis. So, while a traditional tattoo would be created to stand out, the pigmentation is meant to blend in and look natural.
After seven days, you can clean the treated area. We recommend washing the scalp with a gentle facial cleanser. During the first 30 days, it is critical that you avoid exposure to UV rays, intense sweating, or any damage to the scalp while your micro-pigmentation sets.
A consultation & patch test are required at least 24 hours prior to initial treatment.
Please do not consume alcohol , recreational drugs, aspirin, ibuprofen 24 hours before and after treatment Avoid sun exposure for a week before treatment.
Please advise of any medications or health issues at consultation, some issues require a letter from your GP to allow treatment to go ahead, whist some medication and health issues are not eligible for micro-pigmentation.
Consultation & Patch Test Required at least 24 hours before treatment.
