Scalp Micropigmentation and Hair Transplants

Find the right solution to you needs and reclaim your body TODAY!

Not as adversarial as it sounds…

First things first, there’s no right answer here- just what’s right for you. If you’ve already had a transplant or are considering one, SMP is THE perfect choice to conceal scars or blend in any remaining areas. Together these two techniques can be just what the Dr. ordered (and often they do!)

BUT if you’d like to see how they stack up in comparison to each other read on…


WHAT IS SMP?

SMP uses micro-dot tattoos to create the look of emerging healthy hair. It’s a quick, long lasting and discrete way to deal with issues of thinning or baldness. With it we can reinforce a hair line or address specific issues and cover scars.

Every person’s needs are different so we’ll need to conduct an assessment of your scalp and we can do it remotely with photos or in person.


HOW DO THEY COMPARE?

  • TYPICAL COST

SMP: $1,200 to 5,000

Transplants: $10,000 to 15,000

  • TIME

SMP: Final results in about a month- but start building after the first session. 3 to 4 sessions needed spaced about 10 days apart – FINAL RESULTS AFTER- expect a quick touch up session about every 7 years to maintain a natural look.

Transplants: Final results in about 18 months. 3-4 session needed spaced 2 months apart.

  • The Process

SMP:

Free Consultation

Sessions scheduled starting immediately and spaced every 10 days.

Results start after first session and build from there.

Fully done in about 30 days

Transplants:

Free Consultation

2 weeks after initial procedure grafts start to grow

2-4 weeks post procedure grafts shed and begin dormant cycle

1-3 months new grafts are dormant and reforming

Process begins again and repeats for 3 or 4 cycles

18 months most after final procedure new grafts are set and will continue to grow

  • RISKS

Must be healthy enough to get a tattoo

Localized redness and swelling to scalp- fading over 24 hours

Follow aftercare to avoid infections and preserve SMP markings

Transplants:

Must be healthy enough for minor surgery

Possible rejection
