Question 1

How soon can I see results from SMP?

Accepted Answer

Results are visible immediately after your first session. However, the full effect develops after 2–3 sessions as density is layered in. Pigment also settles slightly lighter after healing.

Question 2

Is SMP detectable on camera or video calls?

Accepted Answer

Quality SMP is designed to be undetectable in everyday situations, including photos and video calls. The micro-dots replicate the size and spacing of real follicles.

Question 3

What happens if I don't like my SMP?

Accepted Answer

SMP is semi-permanent and will fade over time. If you want faster removal, laser treatments can break down the pigment. Discuss reversibility options with your artist before treatment.

Question 4

Does SMP work on completely bald heads?

Accepted Answer

Yes. SMP can create the appearance of a full buzz-cut on a completely bald scalp. The artist designs a natural hairline and adds density across the entire area for a realistic shaved-head look.

Question 5

How do I prepare for an SMP session?

Accepted Answer

Arrive with a clean, dry scalp. Avoid alcohol 24 hours before treatment. If you have existing hair, your artist may ask you to buzz it to a specific length. Stay hydrated and eat beforehand.

Question 6
