SMP is considered semi-permanent. While the pigment stays in the skin for years, it may gradually lighten over 3-5 years due to natural skin exfoliation. A quick touch-up session can restore the original crispness.

Unlike a transplant, SMP does not grow hair; it creates the optical illusion of hair follicles. It is perfect for those who prefer a buzz-cut look or want to add a "shaded" effect to thinning areas to make hair look denser.

Yes, SMP is one of the most effective ways to camouflage linear (FUT) or dot (FUE) scars. By depositing pigment into the scar tissue, we blend it seamlessly with the surrounding hair follicles.

Most patients describe the sensation as a light "stippling" or tingling. It is much less painful than a traditional tattoo because the needles are smaller and the pigment is deposited at a shallower depth.

For a natural and realistic result, we usually recommend 2 to 3 sessions. This allows us to layer the pigment gradually, ensuring the correct shade and density for your skin tone.
