There is no real anatomical risk to the Scalp MicroPigmentation (SMP); however, there is something that we call the Master Plan that you need to discuss with your doctor, which includes planning for SMP and hair transplants. If you want us to be your doctor, please contact my office at 800-NEW-HAIR and send me some […]

Click the photo to enlarge: Having a trichophytic closure technique used is not a guarantee you will have a nice, thin and neat scar. The photo isn’t clear and I can not tell what is shaved from what might be an early stretch of the scar. You will have to wait it out. If […]
If the chemical burn was a few years ago and the hair is still thin, chances are it’s not going to regrow on its own. If the loss was temporary, I would’ve expected it to regrow within a year or so. Rogaine might provide some hair growth, but it has to be used for life. […]
A 55 year old male patient had a complete Scalp MicroPigmentation of the scalp done. He has changed his hairstyle from long hair with a balding pattern to a shaved head. He sent me this short email that I wanted to share: Awesome! I’m glad your day was made and I’m pleased that you’re enjoying […]
Click the photos to enlarge (Before on left, After on right): Thanks so much for sending in your email. I’ve posted your photos (with your permission) and appreciate your kind words.
I do not know what you have, but if you have diffuse unpatterned alopecia (DUPA), then in the future you will have diffuse thinning in no particular pattern. I have no way to know how much more you will lose hair though, as everyone is different. There is a cosmetic treatment for DUPA patients, called […]
Unfortunately, much of what you said is true. Transplanting hair into an area of active disease will kill the hair grafts. Most doctors will not do a surgery like a hair transplant where the odds are against the success of the procedure. I don’t know the specific statistics for those that have lichen planopilaris, as […]
This patient is getting married soon and wanted her hair to look thicker quickly for her upcoming June wedding date. She was very concerned about not looking her best and wore her hair up (in a sort of bun) every time she went out to cover her thinning scalp. She could not imagine wearing her […]
A bald Norwood class 6 or 7 patient does not do well with a concealer like Toppik, which works better with some hair. Many men who use this product without hair in the bald area will actually show the Toppik itself, which is often irregular in the way it is put down. If used to […]
Scalp MicroPigmentation (SMP) is an effective concealer, but it is not the answer to everyone’s concealer needs. From your description, I can not determine what you look like… and without speaking with you, I can’t determine what would make you happy with your appearance. At the least, send some pictures and schedule a telephone consultation […]
Click the photo to enlarge: The cost of Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) varies, and we generally do NOT perform SMP only to the front of the head (e.g. first inch) because it may not look uniform and blend in with the top. Since SMP is permanent, you would need to see a doctor for a […]
I’m not familiar with him, but I did find this article which shows off what you’re talking about. It doesn’t impress me, whatever it was. I put a small version to the right… I wish I could get to him and tell him that there is a simple solution to his problem:
This is a Norwood class 7 patient with very fine hair. who loves the hair he had transplanted a decade ago in a single procedure of 3072 grafts. He is using a comb-back styling technique. After seeing him again, we decided to do one more 3000 graft surgery to fill in the crown. His entire […]
Yes, generally Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) can be used anywhere on the scalp (even eyebrows and beard areas). You can send us a photo to hairdoc@newhair.com for a formal consultation. Along with a good photo of the area you want to treat, please provide (1) your name, (2) contact info, (3) hair loss / treatment history, […]
I have done pubic hair to scalp transplants before — a couple of them were with FUE, and most with a small strip. Scarring should not be a big problem, depending on the amount of grafts that are removed. All surgery produces some kind of scarring, though, even if it is minimal or barely detectable. […]
