By Dr. Sivakumar at Covai Cosmetic Surgery, Coimbatore

Greetings, everyone! Today, we will delve into the world of scalp micropigmentation and discuss how this revolutionary procedure can help combat hair loss. We will also talk about Dr. Sivakumar, a renowned cosmetic surgeon, and his practice at Covai Cosmetic Surgery in Coimbatore.

Overview

Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that involves implanting tiny pigment deposits into the scalp to replicate the appearance of natural hair follicles. This technique is commonly used to conceal hair loss, create the illusion of a fuller head of hair, and restore confidence in individuals experiencing hair loss.

Procedure Details

SMP is a meticulous process that requires a skilled practitioner to achieve the most natural-looking results. During the procedure, a specialized electric tattoo device is used to implant pigment into the scalp's upper dermis. The procedure is typically performed in multiple sessions, with each session lasting approximately 3-4 hours. This allows the practitioner to build the desired density and achieve a realistic hairline.

The pigment used in SMP is specifically formulated to match the individual's natural hair color, ensuring a seamless blend with existing hair. Moreover, the pigment is designed to resist fading, providing a long-lasting solution to hair loss.

Risks and Benefits

Like any cosmetic procedure, scalp micropigmentation carries some risks. These include infection, allergic reactions to the pigment, and poor pigment retention. However, these risks are minimal when the procedure is performed by a qualified and experienced practitioner.

Benefits of SMP:

Result, Recovery, and Outlook

The results of scalp micropigmentation are visible immediately after the procedure, with the final outcome visible after the completion of all sessions. The pigment may appear darker initially, but it will lighten over time as the scalp heals.

Recovery from SMP is minimal, with most individuals returning to their normal activities within a day or two. Some redness and swelling may occur, but these side effects typically subside within a few days.

The outlook for SMP is excellent, with the procedure providing a long-lasting solution to hair loss. The pigment is designed to resist fading, ensuring that the individual's new hairline remains visible for years to come.
