Understanding the Importance of Quality Pigments and Proper Technique
Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is a revolutionary solution for hair loss, offering natural-looking results when performed correctly. Unfortunately, some poorly trained practitioners use substandard pigments or incorrect techniques, which can lead to unnatural colour variations.
At MicroHair®, with clinics in Liverpool and Manchester, we take pride in delivering exceptional, long-lasting SMP results by using only the highest quality products, needles, and pigments.
Why Do Some SMP Treatments Develop Unnatural Colours?
Unnatural colour variations in failed SMP treatments are caused by:
1. Low-Quality or Incorrect Pigments: Pigments not specifically designed for scalp micropigmentation can oxidise or change colour over time.
2. Improper Depth of Application: If pigment is applied too deeply into the skin, it can spread and create inconsistent or unnatural tones.
These issues are common when practitioners lack training or cut corners with low-quality materials.
How MicroHair® Ensures Natural Results
At MicroHair® Liverpool and MicroHair® Manchester, we follow strict best practices and use only premium SMP-specific pigments. Here’s how we achieve consistent, natural results:
• SMP-Specific Pigments: Our pigments are specially formulated for scalp micropigmentation. They are designed to fade naturally over time, with a top-up needed every 3-5 years. The colour lightens subtly (around 10-15%) but retains its natural tone, ensuring a flawless appearance for years.
• Precise Application: Our expert practitioners, led by Marcin Adam, ensure pigments are applied at the correct depth. This technique prevents any chance of the pigment settling too deeply, ensuring it maintains its natural grey/black finish as it fades gradually.
Understanding Light Reflection and Skin Tone
While we ensure the pigments remain consistent, some external factors can influence the overall appearance:
• Natural Reflection: Under direct sunlight or bright outdoor lighting, a faint grey or slightly cool tint may occasionally appear. This is a natural optical effect caused by light reflecting off the scalp and occurs even on naturally shaved heads without SMP.
• Skin Tone: The client’s natural skin tone can also influence how the pigment appears while healing.
In all other lighting conditions, SMP results appear sharp, natural, and consistent without any unwanted colour changes.
Maintaining Your SMP Results
SMP is designed to fade gradually over time, requiring periodic maintenance. At MicroHair®, we recommend a top-up every 3-5 years to keep your treatment looking fresh and defined. The gradual fading process is a natural part of the treatment, ensuring the pigment lightens gracefully rather than discolouring.
Our commitment to using premium products, advanced techniques, and professional expertise ensures that your SMP will continue to restore confidence and look completely natural for years to come.
