Scalp Micropigmentation
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT IS SCALP MICROPIGMENTATION ?
Scalp Micropigmentation, or SMP, is a tiny follicle like dots tattooed on the scalp to mimic a shaved down look. The procedure will fade over time and recommended touch ups around 5-7 years. Can be done to recreate hairline, fill in density, or camouflage scars.
​
​
ARE CONSULTATIONS FREE?
Yes, all of our consultations are free of charge. Please remember to cancel your consultation if you will not make it so we can offer to appointment to someone else.
​
​
WHAT HAPPENS IN THE CONSULTATION?
In the consultation, we will determine your stage of hair loss. Analyze your skin and hair density and decide if SMP is the right treatment for you. If we feel as though we can meet your expectations, we will go ahead and book the procedure.
​
​
WILL I HAVE TO CONTINUE TO SHAVE MY HEAD?
If you are recreating your hairline with SMP, you will have to commit to keeping a shaved down haircut. It is recommended to shave 2-3 times a week to keep the results looking natural. When there is too much length, there will be contrast between hair and the SMP impressions.
​
​
WILL SMP DAMAGE THE EXISTING HAIR FOLLICLES?
No, SMP does no damage to existing hair follicles. It will not prevent any new growth either.
​
​
HOW MANY SESSIONS ARE NEEDED?
You will need 2-4 sessions to achieve the final results. In very rare cases (severe alopecia), even more. This just depends of how the skin retains the pigment and the size of the area we are treating. Its easy to add and darken the procedure, we never want to be in a situation where its too dark/dense.
​
​
IS THERE ANY RISK OF INFECTION?
All of our tools are sterilized to the highest standards, & everything else is disposed of. As long as your follow aftercare instructions, you should have no problems at all with your healing.
​
​
CAN WOMEN GET SCALP MICROPIGMENTATION?
Yes, women and men can get this procedure done as a density treatment inside the existing hair. This will give the illusion of a more full head of hair. Hair does not have to be shaved or cut down in anyway to have this treatment done.
​
​
DOES HUE OFFER FINANCING?
Yes! We have a credit check free financing option made available to any clients with procedures over $1500.
