Scalp micropigmentation For Scar camouflage
How can SMP help my scalp scars?
Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) can help you cover scars left behind after a hair transplant treatment or mishap, so that the final appearance blends in flawlessly with the surrounding hair. Hair transplants are generally the most extreme kind of hair remediation considered by individuals suffering from hair loss. They are regarded as severe due to the invasive nature of the surgery and the high cost associated with it.
Hair is a source of pride and self-confidence for us. We make daily efforts to keep it in good condition because it is an important part of our overall appearance. It can be shocking when hair starts to shed in uncommon amounts, and you notice a change in your hairline or scalp. Although the reasons for hair loss can typically be identified by a doctor, its treatments are often limited and not always effective.
In hair transplantation, there are two common approaches: Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT) involves the removal of a 6-10 inch strip of scalp where hair growth is plentiful and strong. Alternatively, there is Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), in which the surgeon will shave the back of the patient’s head before beginning to take out donor hair follicles one at a time.
A Solution for Hair Loss and Scarring
SMP will produce the appearance of natural hair follicles by implanting organic black ink into the scalp. SMP results can last up to three to five years before they require touching up. The treatment is comparatively pain-free and results in a natural-looking outcome that will improve self-confidence. If you prefer a shorter hairstyle, SMP will help create the appearance of hair follicles at the back of the head in cases where there are surgical scars. SMP supplies a look of full hair for those with longer hair. As a result, the scar will not be visible because its bareness will be covered.
The scar tissue can be quite thick and will not react to pigments the same way a normal scalp would. For regular treatments, you can expect 3-4 sessions lasting anywhere from 1-6 hours. Extra sessions may be necessary for surgical scar cases as we assess how the area has responded to the treatment. There will be work done on more than just the scar area. To achieve a blended, natural look, additional SMP work will be performed in the areas on either side of the scar.
To ensure that the wounds are completely healed both internally and externally, the FUT/FUE scar cover with SMP can only be performed a minimum of 8 to 12 months after the surgical treatment.
