Who is SMP Good For?

Posted by Mary Shoufield on

What started as a hair restoration procedure for baldness and thinning hair has become the first choice for those fighting hair loss of different types. Now the question is: Does SMP work for long hair too? Well, yes, scalp micropigmentation has become a universal hair loss procedure for men and women struggling with scalp problems.

How Does SMP Work?

The non-invasive, FDA-approved procedure involves applying tiny dots of special pigment into the second layer of the skin. The idea is to create an impression of short hair that mimic a fuller, denser-look. Men and women with long hair but struggling with the following can trust a reliable scalp practitioner for the job.

Female pattern baldness

There is no thinning crown or a receding hairline in female pattern hair loss. Women suffer from dispersed hair thinning across the scalp. SMP can provide a solution to the problem for women with existing hair volume and density. The scalp artist uses pigment that matches the client’s hair color and scalp and carefully implants the ink into the thinning spots with a goal to make the undetectable so they mimic thicker hair.

The procedure helps create a thicker hair appearance that doesn’t sacrifice the length or hairline.

Thinning at the crown

Now this is one of the worst hair loss experiences for long-haired men and women. Luckily, there is a solution in SMP for the thinning hair near the crown problem. The procedure targets the crown area. The SMP practitioner adds more pigment to the area so that everything blends in well.

Scar camouflage

Scars do not appeal to anyone. They look unsightly and ruin personality too. Luckily, in SMP, there is an easy solution to hide scarring, bad SMP, discoloration, and bald patches. The scar could be the result of bad SMP or hair transplant. Scalp experts use the best type of pigment to match the color and texture of the client’s hair in order to hide scars. Scar Pigment from DermMicro is especially formulated to hide scalp scars. The pigment acts tough on even the toughest scars.

Receding hairlines

SMP is a great solution for receding hairlines. The scalp technician focuses on filling in the gaps with a focus to restore the hairline to its former shape.

Diffuse thinning in men

Men with long hair experiencing limited thinning across the entire scalp or in certain spots can choose SMP as a solution to the problem. The SMP artist can fill in the missing gaps with scalp pigment and blend them into the hair.

Alopecia areata

The autoimmune condition causes patchy hair loss as the immune system starts attacking hair follicles. As a result, there is no new hair growth. This causes round, bald patches across the scalp. The best SMP practitioner can conceal bald patches to restore an even, balanced look.

Bottom Line

When the scalp artist uses the best-quality SMP pigment, they can immediately restore the look of a full head of hair.  What’s more, the SMP practitioner can even customize the look to suit the client’s preferences. The best scalp micropigmentation ink is one that is especially formulated for SMP. DermMicro prides itself on its range of SMP pigments designed for different skin and hair color types. Easy to apply, these pigments do not get blurred or discolored. They do not migrate as well. Ordering SMP pigments is quite easy on DM website.
