Scalp Micropigmentation

Understanding Scalp Micropigmentation

At JAG Medical Spa, we understand the impact that hair loss or thinning hair can have on your confidence and self-esteem. That's why we have added Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP), to the list of services we offer to our clients. Sometimes also referred to as a hair tattoo, scalp Micropigmentation is a revolutionary cosmetic treatment that can help restore the appearance of a fuller head of hair. With years of experience and a commitment to excellence, our team of professionals is dedicated to providing you with the results you desire.

What is Scalp Micropigmentation?

Scalp Micropigmentation is a specialized cosmetic procedure that involves the application of pigment to the scalp to mimic the appearance of hair follicles. Using advanced techniques, our skilled technicians meticulously replicate the natural hairline and density, creating a seamless and realistic result that looks like fuller, short-cut hair. The process is tailored to each individual's unique hair pattern and desired look, ensuring a personalized outcome. With SMP, you can fill in bald spots and reduce the contrast between the skin and the hair follicles.

What to Expect with Scalp Micropigmentation

Before your scalp micropigmentation procedure, you'll have a consultation with one of our experienced technicians to discuss your goals and expectations. During scalp micropigmentation (SMP) treatment, you can expect the following:

Consultation: Discuss your desired outcome with a specialist and determine the best approach for your needs.

Preparation: Your scalp will be cleaned, and the hair will be trimmed short to prepare for the treatment.

Pigment Application: Using specialized equipment, the technician will apply pigment to your scalp, creating tiny, realistic-looking hair follicle impressions.

Layering: Multiple layers of pigment may be applied to achieve the desired density and appearance.

Pain Management: Some discomfort is normal during SMP, but numbing agents can be used to minimize it.

Duration: The duration of treatment depends on the extent of the area being treated but typically lasts several hours to complete.

Aftercare: Proper aftercare is essential to ensure optimal results. This may include avoiding excessive sweating, sun exposure, and following specific instructions for cleaning and moisturizing the scalp.

Maintenance: SMP may require touch-up sessions every few years to maintain its appearance as the pigments can fade over time.

Overall, expect a gradual transformation of your scalp's appearance, resulting in a natural-looking simulation of hair follicles.  In the days following the treatment, patients may experience some redness or mild discomfort, which is typically temporary and subsides within a short period.

What Results Will I See?

At JAG Medical Spa, we will do a comprehensive consultation giving you realistic expectations for what your individual results will look like. Here's what you can expect to see after undergoing SMP:

1. Natural-Looking Hair Density

SMP is meticulously designed to replicate the look of natural hair follicles on the scalp. The carefully applied pigments create the illusion of hair density, even in areas affected by baldness or thinning hair. The result is a seamlessly blended appearance that closely resembles a full head of hair, enhancing your overall aesthetic.

2. Defined Hairline

For those seeking to restore or redefine their hairline, SMP can produce beautifully defined results. Our skilled technicians artfully recreate a natural hairline that complements your facial features and enhances your facial symmetry.

By strategically depositing pigments into the affected areas, SMP seamlessly blends with your existing hair, camouflaging scars and bald patches for a flawless finish. You'll enjoy newfound confidence knowing that these imperfections are well concealed.
