“Pete is a perfectionist and the end result was amazing. I feel like a new man again.”
SMP is, for the most part, low maintenance, but sun and irritating products, used topically or ingested, are the enemy of any tattoo. If your previous artist did not have sufficient training and experience, the results may not be what you wanted. Sometimes some lightening of the treatment is required, and sometimes the colour needs to be neutralized.
Occasionally both strategies are used to restore the treatment to the look you prefer. Whatever your situation, trust Scalp Ink to correct the matter for you.
Scalp Micropigmentation Repair in Melbourne
Lack of experience and insufficient training are two factors that result in unsatisfactory scalp micropigmentation treatment. An untrained professional would take on the job as a task similar to a tattoo session – a trade that is poles apart from SMP. A poor micropigmentation procedure aggravates the situation and puts the patient under more stress as they would now require SMP reparations to fix it. Mediocre scalp micropigmentation can leave a bad impression on an individual, who will be averse to the process in the future. It also damages the reputation of the clinic that is responsible for the botched procedure. In a nutshell, poor results can be caused by various problems such as inaccurate pigmentation depth insertion, inappropriate needle type, incorrect pigment, poor hairline design, and lack of layering or texture.
Every good practitioner will tell you that the success of SMP is mostly determined by the individual performing the therapy. Their expertise with needles and pigments, along with the knowledge, experience, and certification, are some aspects to keep in mind. At Scalp Ink, Melbourne, we frequently receive inquiries from clients who have had to endure poor SMP treatments. The most common question is – “Can anything be done about it now?” The answer is yes. Yes, we can help you fix a bad SMP job with our best scalp repair treatment options.
What Causes a Bad Scalp Micropigmentation Treatment?
SMP is a tattooing technique that uses a stippling pattern to imitate hair follicles cut close to the scalp. It is a relatively new technique that addresses cosmetic issues arising from hair loss. In very few cases, the procedure may be unsatisfactory and require further SMP reparations. Some common causes of a bad SMP treatment are:
- Incompetent Professionals: If the person performing the procedure lacks proper training, the results are going to be inept. To certify their technicians, many clinics use online or weekend training courses, which is fine. However, a good clinic should have educated technicians who are versatile and familiar with various SMP applications.
- Pigment mismatch: Poorly applied scalp or head tattoos usually turn green or blue requiring SMP repair. As a patient, it is therefore part of your due diligence to enquire about previous results of the recommended pigment. This will save you both time and money. Aspects to look for are whether the dye creates a natural look, as well as unedited photos or even transparency of communication with a client.
- Incorrect puncture sizes and the use of inappropriate tools: SMP treatment entails delivering tiny, follicular units into the dermis with minute-sized electronic needless. If the sizes of these follicular units are incorrect, there is a higher chance of the SMP treatment failing. Incorrect follicular sizing occurs when technicians use the wrong needle size or use equipment designed for tattooing or permanent cosmetics.
Scalp Micropigmentation Reparations: Fixing a Failed SMP Treatment
If you made the honest mistake of trusting the wrong clinic or technician and ended up with a bad scalp micropigmentation, you need SMP repair. A lack of experience is one of the most common issues with SMP technicians. As a result, they treat the procedure like a tattoo or permanent makeup procedure, resulting in serious problems with the end result. Some of the most common SMP issues are:
- Shapeless hairline
- Poor blending with existing hair
- Pigment migration
- Too high density
- Insufficient density
- Excessive fading
- Discoloration
- Hairlines that appear “drawn on”
- “Tracks” caused by roller products
At Scalp Ink, we offer SMP reparations and hairline tattoo repair procedures. Your previous SMP treatment that was unsuccessful or unsatisfactory will soon be a thing of the past.We offer two options for scalp reparations:
- If there is enough space in the affected area, we can:
- Reshape and restore hairlines
- Recreate densities by using different pigment shades and hand pressure
- If there is no room for SMP repair, laser (SMP removal treatment) is the recommended step. After a recovery period of at least 8 weeks, we will restart with your SMP treatment.
Scalp micropigmentation treatment is an art, and the artist must achieve a proper blend of colour, texture, and technique for obtaining the desired results. SMP for alopecia requires repair for those with scars from hair transplants. The patient will definitely require an SMP repair treatment to aid in hair transplant concealment.
