Frequently Asked Questions

Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a non-invasive treatment that uses ultra-fine micro-needles to deposit pigment into the scalp, replicating the look of natural hair follicles or a closely shaved head. Whether you're experiencing thinning, a receding hairline, or complete baldness, SMP can create the appearance of fuller, thicker hair.

Our pricing is tailored to each client’s individual level of hair loss, as no two cases are the same. Treatment costs typically range from £500 to £2,500. We recommend booking a free consultation so we can assess your needs and provide a personalised quote.

Most clients find the discomfort to be minimal, and it’s generally much less painful than a traditional tattoo. Once your session is complete, you shouldn’t experience any further discomfort.

Scalp Micropigmentation is not a one-time treatment. Most clients require 2 to 4 sessions to achieve the best results, depending on the extent of hair loss or any scarring. Sessions are typically spaced 10 to 20 days apart.

Each Scalp Micropigmentation session typically lasts between 2 to 4 hours, depending on the extent of hair loss. Most clients require 2 to 4 sessions to achieve optimal results, with treatments spaced 10 to 20 days apart.

Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a form of permanent cosmetics, often called a cosmetic hair or scalp tattoo. The results typically last 4 to 6 years before some gradual fading may occur. When that happens, a quick touch-up can refresh the look. While SMP won’t wash off, it can be adjusted over time if needed. We always recommend consulting with our expert practitioner to explore your treatment options.

Scalp Micropigmentation is designed to add density to thinning areas, such as the crown, hair parting, and other common spots. For those using SMP to rebuild their hairline, we recommend keeping your hair short to achieve a more balanced and natural-looking result.

Of course, everyone has different preferences and If you are unsure of what style or type of hairline will work for you, your treatment specialist will be there to help. With artistic experience on how to fit a hairline to head shape and age, your specialist can help recommend what’s best. Over the course of your sessions you can also tweak and adjust the hairline for a perfect result.

There are three main differences between Scalp Micropigmentation vs. Tattooing:

1.) We are depositing pigment into the skin at a shallower depth than tattoos, only about 2mm into the dermis

2.) We are strictly making small micro dots through pointillism method, not shading or drawing lines

3.) We use only a black pigment which is much more diluted than typical tattoo inks. For this reason, it won’t break down to different colors or look too saturated once it heals
