Frequently Asked Questions
Who is a good candidate for SMP?
SMP is great for men and women experiencing thinning hair, pattern hair loss, alopecia, or visible scalp. A consultation is required to ensure it’s the right option for your goals and skin type.
How many sessions are needed and how long do they take?
Most clients need 2-4 sessions, spaced about 7-14 days apart. This allows the pigment to build gradually and heal properly for the most natural results. Sessions take about 3 hours each.
Does SMP hurt?
Discomfort is minimal to moderate and varies by person. Most clients describe it as much more tolerable than general tattooing, and numbing options are available.
How long does SMP last?
SMP is long-lasting but not permanent. Results typically last 4-6 years and soften gradually. Occasional touch-ups help keep the color fresh and natural-looking.
Can SMP be done on gray or graying hair?
Yes. SMP can be customized to blend with gray hair and adjusted over time as hair color changes.
How much does SMP cost?
SMP services start at $300 for a patch fill. Density fills range from $950-1700. Full scalp treatments start at $2250.
Every scalp is different. Factors such as thinning vs. bald areas, existing hair, scar coverage, and density goals all affect the time and detail required — which directly impacts cost.
Payment plans are available through a third party service and can be discussed during your complimentary, no-strings-attached consultation.
