Introduction
The Process
Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a revolutionary non-surgical solution for individuals experiencing hair loss, thinning hair, or seeking a bold, stylish look.
Scalp micropigmentation at Micro Magic SMP starts with a consultation and a custom design, then takes three visits: the first takes 2 to 8 hours, the second follows after about 14 days, and the final visit comes about 4 weeks later. Following the aftercare advice in the first 10 days matters for the best result.

Needle Application
SMP is applied using specialised micro-needles to deposit pigment into the scalp’s upper dermal layer.

Each session typically lasts 2 to 8 hours, with a recommended waiting period of at least 14 days between sessions.

Quick questions
Visit one takes between 2 and 8 hours. The second visit follows after about 14 days and takes around 2 to 8 hours. The final visit comes about 4 weeks later and takes approximately 2 to 8 hours.
The choice is yours: natural, sharply defined, or a bit of both. The hairline is drawn on first so you can try a few styles, and there is no rush.
Do not go to the gym or train for the first 4 days, and avoid washing or shaving the head for those 4 days. Do not sweat excessively, fully submerge the head or stand under a running shower for at least 10 days.
