Senior Member hairthere Posted April 23, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted April 23, 2023 (edited) This client had two strip surgeries plus an FUE surgery. He was not pleased with the donor scarring, the lack of density, and the shape of his hairline. After attempting a thickening effect scalp micropigmentation procedure he decided to just shave it all off. We then performed a full head SMP procedure to conceal his donor scars, plus we gave him full density and made the hairline shape softer and more aesthetic and gave him temple points. Ahead Ink is located in Fort Lee, New Jersey and we offer free consultations.

Regular Member Rafael Manelli Posted April 23, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted April 23, 2023 I am rarely impressed by SMP, and photos don’t always tell the whole story, but this looks very impressive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted April 23, 2023 Valued Contributor Share Posted April 23, 2023 With the limitations after the surgery this patient has gone through I think this is an excellent result. I made the same choice myself seven years ago. All the best! 1 GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also we could have achieved a 3D effect just with SMP.

pultarmi Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Why didn't you go lower with SMP as there are still some scars visible near the neck region? Some SMP dots look much wider than surrounding hairs, especially below the lower linear scar, is this intended or why does this happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some SMP dots look much wider than surrounding hairs, especially below the lower linear scar, is this intended or why does this happen? This client sat for 5+ hours each session. The zone below the scar was particularly sensitive so he asked not to go lower. We may address this zone at a later date but he was fine with ending the work where we did. The dots you are referring to are actually hairs.
