Im not a huge fan of this look, but I know people with no hair loss who shave the sides of their heads to the skin and then grow out the top a bit. I generally do more of a fade rather than complete shaving, but would consider this look if I don’t have a […]

Hello Dr. Rassman I was wondering could you explain how the ink of smp will not fade if you decided to get a hair transplant after getting Scalp Micropigmentation All permanent tattoo inks fade over time, especially if you expose them to sun, however, the hair transplant will not impact the SMP. We have found […]
Some providers believe that large dots make for good SMP, so terribly wrong. Whoever did this had no plan or any Aesthetic concept of how SMP is supposed to work. Anyone can see this on a man’s crown. When you are going to get SMP, ask to meet some of the provider’s patients and you […]
I have been reading and seeing some SMP done on bald/balding men. So it is basically a hair tattoo. To be honest, in my opinion, it doesn´t look that different than a bald head. It says that it should resemble a buzzcut, or a really short hairstyle visually. But it sounds like some bullshit too […]
The dot size is controlled by the operator (hold time in the skin and how deep they were placed) as well as their skills and the size and needle configuration in the hand piece of the device; however, many of the dots spread because of the size of the pigment particles themselves dictate the spread. […]
When I see an SMP like this, I must assume that this man wanted this look and found someone to do it for him because I can’t imagine any professional would do this voluntarily. I wouldn’t do it if I were asked, not for any money!
This man had Scalp Micropigmentation done up to his hairline. The operator used a dark black ink that turned blue and placed it inside a very thin hairline so close to the leading edge of the hairline that the blue ink stands out. What makes this even worse, this hairline is shaped as a concave […]
This is a great example when Scalp Micropigmentation is used properly to hide a scalp scar. The operator (I don’t know the operator) did a great job in hiding the scar. Click photo to zoom in
I’m planning to get scalp micropigmentation SMP on my FUE scars soon. I currently use minoxidil foam which is essentially just minoxidil dissolved in pure ethanol. Does ethanol applied to the skin longterm cause significant fading or blurring of the SMP dots? The use of alcohol based lotions should be avoided for only the first […]
Hair systems never look good, IMHO. I know a guy who makes a lot of money and went very detailed on hair system versus transplant and explained very well why he got the system and it’s the first thing I notice every time I see him. Yeah, I know he has it and I can’t […]
22 y/o here with rapid mpb. i’m already too far gone for a hair transplant to look halfway decent so am looking into some alternatives. i rocked a buzzcut last year and thought it was ok but for my wildly receeded temples so smp has caught my eye but there are also some incredibly good […]
This is the second time I have seen this type of SMP done on the head and I suspect that maybe these men actually want to look like this. This is not in my playbook.
Too many people who seek Scalp Micropigmentation get this type of terrible work. This man is now worse than if he would have done nothing as these terrible spots stand out. He could get a laser done to remove them but he may suffer some hair loss in the process
Sounds like a bad idea obviously but consider that someone has long hair black hair dense hair but in the beginnings of diffuse taken fin and is maintaining on fin There is no drawing, just black hair It is a difficult process because the depth control is critical to be not much more than 1/2mm. […]
Looking to get the opinion of Males or Females that have gotten it. I find SMP to be riskier than a transplant, half the People who are bald and get it regret it. There aren’t a lot of stories of people with hair that get it. We have done quite a few men and women […]
