This is a very important question. Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP), as we do it, mimics the shaved hair follicle as it emerges from the scalp, having no length. This is not a piece of art in the classic manner with shading and depth color. Some people want their scalp to become darker, so they use products […]

Now that is some due diligence! Below are the answers to your questions. Either FUE or FUT will be fine. The key is to prepare one-hair grafts and put them at the correct angle, lying flat so that they do not stick up. I have never seen shock loss of the existing eyebrow hair when […]
The pigments have their limitations, but are particularly good for men who want their hair shaved to almost scalp level (closely cropped). You are correct that as you gray, the pigment may produce problems, but usually these pigments gray a bit anyway. I would have to see you, at least see the pictures of your […]
Snippet from the article: Read the rest — Lady Gaga Taking Anti-Baldness Drug Judging by photos, it appears that singer Lady Gaga not only has her hair bleached, but that she also wears wigs. Rogaine (minoxidil) is the only FDA approved treatment for female hair loss, so if she is losing her hair from chemical […]
Balding and graying are independent genetic traits. To see this for yourself, go to a busy shopping mall with an upper level and look down on the men who pass under you. Just because you’ve never seen it, that doesn’t mean it isn’t possible. Men tend to start seeing gray in their 30s, but it […]
For all realistic purposes, Scalp MicroPigmentation (SMP) is permanent. You can’t change the color of it, but you can have a touch up to enhance areas which may fade over the years. If your hair turns grey/white, SMP color will remain the same… but if you shave your hair or dye your hair after a […]
We are the first doctors in the United States offering scalp micropigmentation (SMP). The creation of the hairline is fundamental to what we have been doing over the past 20 years, so incorporating this skill is critical to providing a quality service with a natural looking hairline. We are also the pioneers for today’s ”standard […]
With regular henna ink, I would not think so. Henna ink is essentially henna powder mixed with eucalyptus oil and coffee/tea, and none of those will stop the absorption. It’s commonly used for temporary tattoos (see right). On the other hand, I’ve read about the dangers of black henna, which isn’t usually henna at all, […]
Yes, it could seep into the skin and hair follicles. At high concentrations it could be dangerous.
A good doctor should be able to help you understand what it is that is happening on your head. There are so, so, so many products out there that claim to be beneficial for your hair loss treatment, so don’t be shocked if some doctors don’t know of the products you ask about. For example, […]
Many of you hopefully know (or at least have read) about the Norwood Classifications for male pattern baldness. I wrote the question in the title of this post, because there is no such thing as a Class 8 patient. Norwood Class 7 is the highest balding pattern defined, but I want to discuss a patient […]
Without examining you, it would be hard to determine what is causing your hair loss. It could be a fungal infection, however, often these type of infections lead to patchy hair loss and are not diffuse as it seems to be in your case. Irritants such as chemical dyes and relaxers (along with anything else […]
Finasteride takes time to see if it is working. Most people notice that the amount of hair that falls out in the shower drain reduces within a month of starting the medication, so we could assume that it does stop the actual loss in many young men. You are right, more recent hair loss has […]
I honestly don’t know how to help you. I take the view that the doctor works for you, so if the doctor does not satisfy your medical needs, you “fire” the doctor and “hire” another. I don’t know what the bumps are or what could be causing them. You need to see a doctor who […]
I am going to show you a Class 7 patient who is about your age with just about the same problem you had. Although I would have recommended 3,000 grafts because of the large balding area, I gave this man 1677 grafts instead. Here are photos of his before and after (1 year) results. Click […]
