Scalp Micropigmentation

An effective solution offered by Zi Medspa

Thinning hair, bald spots, or receding hairlines are common problems that can make you feel self-conscious. At Zi MedSpa, we offer scalp micropigmentation (SMP) as part of our hair rejuvenation and restoration services.

SMP is a cosmetic tattooing technique that provides the illusion of a full head of hair. It involves applying small dots of ink to the scalp to simulate the appearance of hair follicles and delivers natural-looking, long-lasting results.

About Scalp Micropigmentation

The first step in the process is meeting with a trained and licensed professional, who will assess your hair loss and discuss your desired results. Both men and women can be SMP candidates.

Before the procedure begins, the technician will prepare the scalp by cleaning and numbing the area to minimize discomfort. A hairline template will be created based on your desired results and natural hair growth patterns.

During the procedure, using a specialized tattooing machine, the technician will apply small dots of pigment to the scalp to create the appearance of hair follicles. The dots are spaced in a way that simulates the look of a natural hairline.

Once the pigment has been applied, the technician will examine the scalp to ensure that the dots are evenly spaced and that the hairline looks natural. Additional adjustments may be made as needed to achieve the desired results.

After the procedure is complete, the technician will provide you with aftercare instructions, which may include avoiding excessive sweating or exposing the scalp to direct sunlight. They will also schedule a follow-up appointment to check on your progress and perform any necessary touch-ups.
