Minimally invasive Scalp Micropigmentation procedure

Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a simple and minimally invasive procedure that creates the appearance of a full head of hair by carefully and meticulously placing tiny pigment impressions amongst existing hair. Each impression replicates natural hair follicles, creating a realistic look that is surprisingly low maintenance.

When delivered by one of our experts, Scalp Micropigmentation can give the appearance of naturally restored receding hairlines, thicken remaining hair, camouflage existing hair transplant scars, and/or create the look of close-cropped hair.

Suitable for men and women

Scalp Micropigmentation is a non-invasive procedure, suitable for men and women. Unlike other hair loss treatments, it gives you immediate results with no downtime and is less expensive than a hair transplant.

The virtually painless procedure involves the use of highly specialized equipment and unique techniques to carefully and expertly inject all-natural, color-tailored pigments into the scalp creating a completely natural look of the patient’s hairline.

A typical scalp micropigmentation procedure involves an initial consultation and two pigmentation sessions to achieve the desired results. Once the procedure is complete, the results of a Scalp Micropigmentation treatment can last up to five years.

The Scalp Micropigmentation Procedure

1st Pigmentation Session

During the first session, our experts lay the foundation of your new look by matching the surrounding hair’s color and density. Every detail -color variance, space filling, follicle thickness and more- is taken into account to achieve the best results.

2nd Pigmentation Session

The second session is when thicker and denser appearance is created with more pigmentation delivered to the scalp. This session usually takes place 10 to 14 days after the first procedure.

Post Procedure Care

As opposed to other hair loss treatments, the care needed for Scalp Micropigmentation right after the procedure is very simple and low maintenance. You only need to wash your head the fourth day after the treatment and, during that time, avoid any strenuous activity that will prompt undesired sweating.

What They Say About SMP

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Epstein’s for quite some time now. While I was looking into Scalp Micro Pigmentation, I found out that one of Dr. Epstein’s nurses was one of the experts performing this treatment. Since my transplant results came out great, I decided to have the SMP here, and my results came out great, under Dr. Epstein’s guidance. I live in Connecticut where there are a lot of SMP centers, which I’m sure are great, but with my experience with Dr. Epstein and his staff, this was an easy decision and I couldn’t be happier.

– Ali, Patient

Now that I’ve had my scalp micropigmentation done, I don’t have to worry about any of my old donor site scars from work done in the 1980s, showing. Thanks so much doc!

– Hank, Patient

SMP made the difference between looking good and now looking really good. Your hair transplants were really effective Dr. E, and by having my scalp made a bit darker, I feel so much prettier and not so thinning with my hair.

– Cecilia, Patient

Considering its natural look, it won’t be long before you forget that the scar is even there. Then again, if you have a fairly prominent scar, it may be a little harder to hide, but overall, the surgery does a pretty good of covering the surface area you want.

How can I vet my micropigmentation surgeon?

If anyone, Dr. Jeffery Epstein is well aware of the concerns patients have when pursuing a procedure such as a scalp micropigmentation. It’s vital that patients ask any and all questions that cross their minds and ensure that they can review a surgeon’s work history before committing. Any licenses or certifications are also a good sign; reviewing their track record with previous surgeries can provide peace of mind about what you can expect.
