Despite being the most viable solution for treating the Alopecia patients, Scalp micro-pigmentation has been serving the cosmetology industry as a technique to camouflage the scars occurred during the hair transplantation surgery over a decade. I admit that it’s not groundbreaking news, and perhaps you all are aware of this technology, but today I will focus on the extent to which it can conceal the scars and what is its future in India.

The scars of hair transplantation are an inevitable by-product. SMP or scalp micro-pigmentation utilizes uniquely designed particles of stable pigments of the tissues of the scalp. These pigments are sheathed and set down to work in accordance with the nature of the scalp tissues. The stable pigments will not haze the skin colour and will gradually diminish.



How effective is the procedure in concealing scars?

Straightforwardly, the nearer the tissue of the scar is to the encircling skin concerning texture, prominence level, and colour, the finer the scar will conceal. The procedure is effective more to hide the hair transplantation scars that are small and clean.

Sometimes, the camouflaging of the scars are included within the entire treatment of SMP. In such a case, the expertise of the surgeon highly matters to find the extent of camouflaging. On the basis of circumstances of the client and his scar, the surgeon decides whether he requires any fraxel laser therapy prior to the SMP method. If the tissue of the scar is already comparatively flat, he may not undergo the fraxel laser therapy.

The SMP technique works best if the head is trimmed and treated with the discussing method. Even after treating the hair transplantation scars with SMP, the scars at the exposed sites will still be apparent when the asymmetry between the scar and the scalp is distinct.

Future of scalp micro-pigmentation in India

Scalp micro-pigmentation in India due to its various uses is gaining its ground serving a lot of clients and healing their scars. This non-surgical technique is a greater add-on for hair transplantation in India which gives the scalp a fuller look by minimizing the contrast between the colour of the hair and the scalp.

It is opening the employment doors to the young generation. A lot of youth are now getting training to work as technicians of SMP. As India is becoming a fashion-oriented country gradually, the Indians are becoming conscious of the marks and are becoming desperate to hunt for the remedies. This hunt is, in turn, increasing the market of SMP and because of its numerous advantages, the process is soon believed to be the only simple and effective method to treat the hair transplantation scars. 

This brilliant method is safe and can be implemented upon any hair thinning type. The hair regeneration industry is booming, and so is the SMP method. In the coming years, the SMP technique seems to be very promising. 

Though it’s an old method to treat the scars, yet it has seen a great upsurge in the recent years. Definitely, this potent scar healing treatment is going to become a good source of revenue in 2015. Being a fashion conscious Indian, I am eagerly looking for that day when the technique will be further modified to remove the scars of every type completely and can thus bring smiles on the face of every patient of hair transplantation surgery.
