Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) at Avanza Clinic

Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is a non-surgical cosmetic pigmentation procedure that uses tiny pigment deposits to mimic the appearance of closely cropped hair follicles. It may be used to create a shaved-head appearance or visually reduce the contrast associated with thinning hair in suitable individuals. Unlike a hair transplant, scalp micropigmentation does not restore hair follicles or produce hair growth. The treatment plan focuses on the desired appearance, hairline shape, pigment selection, and how the pigmentation will blend with the existing scalp and hair. At Avanza Clinic, patients can enquire about scalp micropigmentation, discuss the desired appearance, and learn about the procedure, aftercare, potential risks, and maintenance requirements. Avanza Clinic serves patients across India, with branches in Mumbai, Vadodara, and Raipur for location-specific enquiries.

How Does Scalp Micropigmentation Work?

Scalp micropigmentation involves placing tiny deposits of pigment into the scalp to create the visual impression of hair follicles. The colour, spacing, density, and hairline design are planned according to the individual's scalp, existing hair, and desired appearance. The treatment process may involve the following steps:

  • Consultation

    The practitioner assesses the scalp, discusses the desired appearance, and explains suitability and limitations.

  • Hairline and pigment design:

    The proposed hairline, pigment colour, and pattern are discussed before treatment.

  • Scalp preparation:

    The scalp is prepared according to the practitioner's treatment protocol.

  • Pigment application:

    Small pigment deposits are placed in the planned areas using appropriate equipment.

  • Healing and aftercare:

    The practitioner provides instructions for caring for the treated scalp.

  • Follow-up and touch-ups

    Additional sessions may be discussed depending on the treatment plan, healing, and desired appearance.

The exact process, number of sessions, and maintenance requirements depend on the individual and the practitioner's protocol. A consultation should cover potential risks, aftercare, and the possibility of pigment fading over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

SMP is a cosmetic tattooing technique where tiny pigment dots are applied to the scalp to mimic the look of hair follicles, creating the appearance of a shaved head or fuller hair.

Aftercare includes avoiding direct sun exposure, heavy sweating, and washing the scalp for a few days to ensure proper healing.

SMP results can last several years, but pigments may gradually fade over time. Occasional touch-ups may be needed to maintain the look.

Typically, 2-4 sessions are required, with touch-ups as needed, to achieve optimal results.
