Some people are more sensitive than others, but in general, it is not too uncomfortable.

The effect should last between 2 and 5 years, thereafter a top-up/booster treatment is recommended. Some people might need a small annual colour boost, but the majority carry it well for approximately 2-5 years.

Yes. We can simulate the look/impression of hair on affected areas regardless of length. For Alopecia Areata or Androgenic Alopecia (male/female pattern baldness), we can create an illusion of hair growth or optically reduce the contrast between natural hair and skin.

It is a common misconception that SMP is just for men. Women can also experience medical conditions such as alopecia, thinning hair, or hair loss due to hormonal changes, pregnancy, or hair product damage.

You can expect an instant visible hair imitation result, but it will not be strong enough after the 1st session. Expect redness and soreness for a couple of days. Pigment dots will appear darker immediately after. Between the 5th and 10th day, the pigment may “disappear” as it is obscured by new skin cells—this is normal. It will reappear to its true colour within 2-4 weeks.

Before: No alcohol for 48 hours prior; no hair dyes at least 10 days prior; no Botox or injectables at least 2 weeks prior (contact me to check). After: No exercise for 5-7 days; no shaving the scalp for 7 days; no washing the scalp for 7 days; avoid chlorinated swimming pools for 1 month. Use sunscreen on sunny days to prevent fading.

We work together to design the best hairline shape for your features. Special wax pencils are used to draw the shape; we only proceed once we are both happy with the design.

For fully or partially bald clients, it is recommended to maintain a freshly-shaved or cropped look (every 2-3 days). You can start shaving 7 days after the treatment. For thinning hair/patches, specific advice is provided at consultation.

Yes, as it may affect the outcome and timescale/allowances of your SMP procedure.
