For SMP HD (Hair Density), please cut your hair as short as you are going to keep your hair
– Scalp Preparation: Please do not use a razor on your scalp on the day of the treatment. Shave or cut your hair 24 hours before your scheduled procedure. It is critical that we see all native hair in order to properly blend the hair follicles. Any redness, breakouts or infection on the scalp will lead to your appointment being cancelled and rescheduled.

If you would like a patch test prior to your service, please book a consultation first. We will provide you with the products; you’ll then have to arrange a test with a dermatologist or allergist.

Failure to follow the pre-care instructions may cause increased sensitivity, discomfort, infection, uneven placement or cancellation of your treatments.

– To prevent any infection, please avoid touching the treated area with your fingers unless washed, do not wear hats or toques without a shower cap underneath and if you do, limit to a short amount of time. The scalp may be red and swollen for 8-12 hours following the treatment.
– NO WATER ON THE SCALP FOR 72 HOURS! This may cause the pigment to migrate. After 72 hours you may apply water to the scalp, but please do not scrape or scratch the scalp until it is healed (no Loofahs or abrasives to be used on the scalp as it may remove the pigment and cause scarring).
– No exercise, sweating, or excitement for 72 hours. Stay cool and calm.
– No make-up, hair care products, sun, sauna, Jacuzzi, swimming in chlorine pools or in the recreational bodies of water, contact with animals, gardening for 7 days, until area is completely healed.
– Do not rub or traumatize the procedure area while it is healing (pigment may be removed along with crusting tissue, if any).
– Use a sun screen after the procedure area has healed to prevent future premature fading of pigment color. PLEASE NOTE: if fading occurs due to sun damage on the scalp, touch ups and/or re-treatment will be charged at full price.
– Do not use products that contain AHA’s on the procedure area. (Example: Glycolic, Lactic Acids. Always check your product labeling) it will fade your pigment color prematurely.
– For the first 2 weeks after the treatment, the color intensity of your procedure can be significantly brighter and darker, as well as larger and sharper or can be significantly lighter than what is expected for the final outcome. It can take up to 6 weeks for final results, depending on how fast your skin exfoliates.
– Touch-up visits should be scheduled between 2 weeks after your first treatment, and 2-4 weeks after your 2nd treatment. All SMP procedures are a multi-step process. Results are not determined until all touch-up applications have been completed.
– If you have any questions or concerns, please notify your technician immediately.
– If you have excessive redness, swelling or tenderness or any red streaks going from the procedure site toward the heart, elevated temperature, or purulent drainage from the procedure site, contact your physician as the area may be infected and you may need to seek medical care.

Failure to follow the post-care instructions may cause increased sensitivity, discomfort, infection, pre-mature color loss or migration.

SMP is a non-surgical, non-invasive treatment, a form of tattoo. Pigment is applied onto the scalp giving the appearance of natural hair follicles. It creates illusion of fuller look or buzz cut look.

It generally consists of 3-5 sessions, occasionally more, to perfect, ranging 1-4 hours a session.

It varies due to numerous factors, e.g. size and conditions. As a guideline, full head would range from $4,000. The price will be confirmed after the consultation.

Yes, face-to-face consultation is mandatory, and we do this for free. However, if the appointment is not honored, a booking fee will be charged.

It generally lasts 1-3 years. We recommend yearly touch-up for a fresh look.

Unlike tattoo, the pigment is applied to the dermal epidermal junction, much shallower as opposed to conventional body tattoos, in order to mimic the follicles. If the pigment is deposited deeper into dermis where collagen is loosely woven, like tattoo, it causes a blow out, a big dot like a mole. It doesn’t resemble the follicle and looks unreal. We also use needles to best fit to place follicle-look dots.

We use carbon for the color. It won’t change the color but it will change to lighter shades over time. The pigments used for cosmetic and body tattoo are mixture of red, green and yellow and metals. Each color and metals fades or absorbed differently and causes the change in color. Have you seen reddish or bluish brows?

We have gray, lighter shades of black to match.

Pain tolerance is very individually different and physical condition affects it for the same person. Most clients describe it as vibration massage and fall asleep during the session. But it may get sore after a while. That is why we limit one session up to 4 hours.
