Scalp Micropigmentation for Male pattern baldness

 

Suffering from pattern baldness is very common with men and women.
This type of hair loss comes in a variety of shapes affecting either the hairline or the crown area or both.
We usually advise clients to shave their hair down so to achieve the buzz look where scalp micropigmentation treatments can be perfectly matched and blended through to your existing hair.

SMP for hair male pattern baldness

Male pattern baldness is the cause of up to 95% of baldness in men. It’s a natural occurrence, affecting a majority of the male population. By the time you’re 50, there’s an 85% chance that your hair will be noticeably thinner. For cosmetic reasons, many men aren’t comfortable with natural hair loss. Though you’re not alone, you may prefer how you looked with fuller, thicker hair.

If your hair is thinning and you would like to keep the length longer without having to wear the shaved buzz look then this is possible using SMP techniques to create the illusion of density by building up treatments and shades of micro-dots around and in-between existing hair. For older clients who are turning grey/white it is advisable to keep the hair colour a darker shade for optimum results.

How SMP can help with male pattern baldness

If you prefer the youthful look of a full, thick and strong head of hair, then scalp micropigmentation could be the solution you deserve. Using tiny scalp tattoos, this process creates a natural and convincing result. Small tattoos can be used in areas of significant hair loss, or in patches where the hair has thinned to the point that the scalp can be seen through the strands. Scalp tattoos will blend with your hair to make it look fuller and thicker.

Types of balding SMP can treat

Scalp micropigmentation can be used to treat many different types of hair loss. It is commonly used to mask thinning hair, as well as male pattern baldness. These treatments work best when your existing hair can blend with these small scalp tattoos and may look less natural in situations where patches are completely lacking in hair. You can use SMP to maintain a hairline as it starts to recede but may need to cut your hair a lot shorter to suit your new scalp tattoos. Whatever the reason for your hair loss, if you’re not ready to show your scalp, why not call to talk through SMP options?

What is scalp micropigmentation (SMP)?

SMP is cosmetic tattooing (medical hair tattoo) that offers a solution to hair loss by replicating hair follicles that are about to grow giving the impression of a shaved look. SMP can treat anywhere on the scalp that is losing hair or even complete baldness of the scalp.

Prices vary from £600 per session to £1,300 per session depending on which artist carries out the SMP Prices are based on a session price rather than individual case price.

Scalp micropigmentation gives the look of a shaven head or a stubble shadow look, the treatment at Creative Scalps will be undetectable, only you, the people you choose to tell and Creative Scalps will know.

This is dependent on the amount of hair loss. As a general rule, you will be looking at 3 or 4 sessions over a 6-8 week period. Each session can last 2-4 hours.

This is done according to skin tone and/or remaining hair colour. We have huge experience of a diverse range of clients from all cultures. 1st sessions usually start with a lighter shade and we gradually build up density and darkness as we progress to complete your treatment.

We can go through some pictures of hairlines and draw some hairlines on you. When choosing hairlines it is always best to play it safe, not going too low on the first visit. Then on the second visit you would have decided how low you want to go. We can also produce various hairline styles depending on what you like (ie jagged, soft, slightly receding, edged up, lines and designs) Creative Scalps have developed techniques and procedures to ensure your hairline will be in the correct place and suit you and your style. We are from a barbering background and have years of top level experience to ensure this is done correctly.

No. We use different pigments, inks, machines, needles and techniques. Scalp Micro Pigmentation is a specialist field of its own and requires a highly experienced technician to achieve great results.

No not at all, as the depth of the needle is only into the upper dermis, if anything the treatment has been known to stimulate hair growth.

Results of completed treatments will last for years, depending on lifestyle and immune system. Many clients like to have a top-up session after 2 or 3 years just to keep their new style looking fresh.

TOP-UP  prices vary according to what is needed. Prices for an existing client can variety from £470 to £1000.

For best results you would need the treatment to dry heal for 4 days after each treatment. So this would mean avoiding sweat, water and any sorts of creams, lotions etc….
After this period you can slowly increase activity.

Everyone is different depending on skin types. Immediately after treatment our technician will clean your treatment and use an anti-redness topical anaesthetic so you will leave the clinic looking and feeling great. The redness may possibly be with you for a day or two typically.

The treatment is perfectly safe, we use sterile equipment and brand new packaged needles for every procedure. We take health & safety very seriously and are fully insured and regulated.

No, as we only use a carbon based black pigment which is diluted to match your skin tone.

Yes, direction of hair growth is always taken into consideration for the most realistic results.

The honest answer is yes you are going to feel discomfort as with any tattoo procedure. We advise clients to have eaten well and be in good health on the day of treatment. Our pre-treatment advice also includes moisturising the scalp twice daily in the days/weeks leading up to your procedure. This will help soften the skin. The elation you will feel after solving your hairloss issues will far outweigh any discomfort from treatment. 

We can work it around your work or social life no problem, weekends late nights early mornings are all ok. Creative Scalps has one of the worlds most skilled and experienced technicians so we do sometimes have waiting lists of 4-6 weeks.

    SMP is cosmetic tattooing (medical hair tattoo) that offers a solution to hair loss by replicating hair follicles that are about to grow giving the impression of a shaved look. SMP can treat anywhere on the scalp that is losing hair or even complete baldness of the scalp.

    Scalp micropigmentation gives the look of a shaven head or a stubble shadow look, the treatment at Creative Scalps will be undetectable only you and Creative Scalps will know.

    1st 2 to 5 hours 2nd 2 to 5 hours and 3rd 2 to 4 hours. All quotes are for 3 visits. 1st to 2nd visit a 10 day gap and 3rd a 4 week gap.

    The first treatment is done slightly lighter to see how the pigment settles in the scalp, then the second treatment the colour can be left as it is or altered to see if you need to go dark.

    We can go through some pictures of hairlines and draw some hairlines on you. When doing hairlines it is always best to play it safe, not going too low on the first visit. Then on the second visit you would have decided how low you want to go. We can also produce various hairline styles depending on what you like (ie jagged, soft, slightly receding).

    No not at all even though SMP can be known as a hair tattoo, it is completely different to a tattoo. The pigments used for SMP do not change colour, complete different equipment and needles are used and a complete different technique is used. Also you have to be specially trained to perform scalp micropigmentation

    No not at all, if anything the treatment has been known to stimulate hair growth in some cases.

    Results can last 1 to 3 years with some touch ups in between, but depending on lifestyle and immune system it can last longer.

    I charge £200 for the hour, a touch up usually lasts about 1 to 1 and a half hours.

    4 days after each treatment you can not train, no sweating whatsoever, this is essential otherwise the treatment will not work. After 4 days you can train but only light training, you cannot sweat excessively for 10 days.

    Everyone is different depending on skin. Some clients the red can go same day, some takes a day and some can take a few days.

    The treatment is perfectly safe, Every needle used is disposed of after each treatment and the equipment is cleaned after every client.

    For most, this is not necessary. Remember, it is nothing like a normal tattoo the needle goes in not so deep. But you can take paracetamol, ibuprofen or co codamol. Avoid aspirin this will cause bleeding, aspirin thins the blood.

    We can work it around your work or social life no problem, weekends late nights early mornings that is not an issue.
