An alternative option for individuals who cannot undergo a hair transplant.
"A hair transplant is considered by many as the 'gold standard' to reverse hair thinning. But for those who are not ready for the procedure or not suitable for a hair transplant (where thinning is too extensive), this could be a viable option."
Scalp Micro Pigmentation (SMP) is a medical-grade, non-surgical, comfortable and safe treatment where we skilfully deposit a customised organic ink beneath the surface of the scalp. As we deposit thousands of those micro-dots, what you get is a beautiful optical illusion of denser-looking hair. It is also suitable for individuals who have done a hair transplant before and would like to enhance results or cover their donor scars.
Women who tend to experience diffuse thinning at the crown/hairline will benefit from SMP, which creates the visual illusion of fuller, thicker hair. SMP was invented over a decade ago, and the Freia technique is a blend of East meets West. All SMP procedures at Freia are personally done by our founder and SMP technical expert, Serene.
SMP can produce the visual effect of hair growing and thickening of previously balding spots.
Not all Scalp Micro Pigmentation treatments are made equal
This, we can attest to. SMP is very much an art as much as it is a science. Blending is a key component to ensuring a natural, even-looking result. This can only be achieved after three to four sessions.
We do not believe in one session being able to deliver the results we want because the only way you are going to create the density in that solo session is to compromise on the size of the dots (e.g. make them larger and hence, unnatural). For us, three sessions are minimally needed to build up on the optimal density and to give your scalp adequate rest in between each session.
The logic is simple — the pigment size we create mimics that of our hair follicle, and you can only put a finite number of dots within one session.
How long does Scalp Micro Pigmentation treatment last?
We choose to work with semi-permanent pigments because they give us the leeway to adjust the hairline or colour as one ages. Generally speaking, results from an initial three sessions will last two to three years.
Even when the pigments fade, this is gradual and fades to a lighter shade of the black/brown tone we use. Individual variation may occur as pigments fade based on metabolism and how we take care of the pigments.
