3-D Smp? Is this real?

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

 

Is 3-D Smp real? There’s companies out there advertising 3-D Smp by using 3-5 different tones of ink. Does it really give you the illusion of 3-D?

 

I spoke to another practitioner and he says no. That you can create an illusion of 3-D by using different size dots.

 

 

If it’s true, You think it might be good to use this technic on a scar to break up the smiley face in the back of the head?

 

 

Thanks everyone!

The only way to make SMP truly 3D is to add hair via FUE. Otherwise, smp is 2d (dimension 1 is scalp, dimension 2 is follicle replication). With that said, I have seen some good work that I wouldn't call 3d but I'd say it's dimensional. But, this is advanced technique so I'd only go to people with experience using pigment that won't change color. Scalp Micro USA, Jonathan Gerow, Brandwood Clinic in the UK.

I am the SMP and Micro-Pigmentation Specialist for Shapiro Medical Group. Always feel free to message me privately with any additional questions you might have. I am trained in both the permanent and temporary pigmentation methods and am happy to be here to offer support as a neutral resource.

Creating a 3D hair effect with SMP

 

"Scalp micropigmentation, by its very nature, is a two dimensional illusion. The placement of pigment deposits within the skin produces an incredibly realistic image of a full head of shaven hair. However at HIS Hair Clinic, we are able to take this procedure one step further. The following photograph shows a recent treatment completed by a HIS practitioner. By layering different pigment shades during the course of the recommended number of treatment sessions, we are able to achieve a subtle three dimensional illusion to further enhance the realism of your new 'hair'. Click the photo for a larger version. 3D SMP This 3D technique requires a high level of skill to deliver the very best result. All our practitioners are now comprehensively trained to achieve this effect, and HIS Hair Clinic is the only provider in the world with proven 3D-simulation results."

but it doesn't stop the clock.
