at Maxim Hair Restoration
Scalp Micropigmentation is a cosmetic pigmentation process that implants micro-dots of color into the top layers of the scalp. These micro-dots replicate the look of individual hair follicles. Unlike traditional tattooing, SMP uses specialized medical pigments, ultra-fine micro-needles, and precise layering techniques that simulate the natural growth pattern of shaved hair. The placement, shading, and spacing of each micro-dot follow your natural follicular structure to create an authentic appearance.

Most SMP treatments require three sessions spaced apart for optimal density and blending.
A little preparation goes a long way in ensuring success
An SMP session generally lasts between two and four hours depending on the size of the area being treated. The procedure involves placing thousands of tiny pigment dots into the scalp using micro-needles.
Each session builds upon the previous layer to gradually increase density, refine the hairline, and create a natural shading effect. The process is comfortable for most patients as topical numbing agents are used.
After each session, the scalp may appear slightly red, but this subsides quickly. The full treatment typically includes three sessions scheduled about two weeks apart.

Mild redness or tightness may occur, but most patients resume regular activities within a day.
