We’ve transitioned many patients from a wig/ hair piece to hair transplant and SMP. If you choose the SMP method, you can still have the hair piece during the process and when complete, have a “coming out” party and show the world you decided to shave it all off. If you choose the hair transplant […]

The one on the left had SMP, the one on the right did NOT have SMP (it is just his normal hair line)
Dr. Pak was an engineer working with me (Dr. Rassman) in the mid 1990s before he went off to medical school to be a doctor . We worked to invent a system or robot which would use cameras and special optical sighting system to target a hair follicle to automatically take out a follicle using the FUE technique. This […]
Thank you for the mention. We have other medical journal publications HERE.
Everyone’s goals and expectations are different so my answer is a generalization. If you look at many before after photos on my website many Norwood 6 or 7 patients have received great results. It may not always be covering their full head but it is always a cosmetic worthwhile difference for them. If you do […]
Seborrheic dermatitis is an inflammatory skin condition. Many patients have successfully had a hair transplant and SMP with seborrheic dermatitis. With respect to your specific condition and your expectation, I cannot comment since I do not know you nor have I examined you. Everyone is different and you won’t know the answer to your question […]
This is a patient who had a hair transplant to the crown top areas at another doctors office. He didn’t get what he was promised : a full head of hair. Instead he was left with a hair transplant scar. SMP was used to add fullness to the hair line (a soft hair line) and […]
It’s always good to hear from our patients. The entire staff takes personal pride in what we do and we form a close bond with our patients. Thank you for sharing your experience!
Comment: I have spoken out many times about the ethics of doing hair transplants in patients like the one discussed above as well as many others. Had PAUL not come to see me, he would certainly have chosen to undergo a follicular unit extraction (FUE) procedure because he was committed to it. No selling was […]
This young man has very thin see-through hair. Near completion of the first session, the SMP procedure shows the difference between the non-pigmented scalp and the pigmented scalp as it is being performed. The first session uses lighter strokes than subsequent sessions which may be darker in the next session if the patient makes that […]
Many celebrities have had hair transplant strip surgeries hidden under their long hair and from the photos I’ve seen circulating around the Internet it does seem like a hair transplant scar. I wonder if he knows it can be camouflaged with SMP? If not, someone should show him this post.
Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) like a tattoo is considered permanent. There are lasers which can remove the pigment but the decision to have SMP (or tattoos) should be made with the expectation that it is a life time commitment. There are some that advertise temporary SMP but I have not seen the work or how it […]
I am going to assume that you have fine hair. As you did not send pictures with this email, I went into our picture file and found two people who had fine hair and a single large session, one younger man has a single 3226 graft procedure with us and the second older man had […]
This patient would not allow me to show his pictures, but I will tell you in general what his “freaky” hair looked like. He had four scalp reductions (removal of bald scalp from the crown of the head) which left a scar down the middle of his head, and he had 4 partly failed transplants […]
