Whether you decide that Hair Illusions is the one to facilitate your transformation …. PLEASE be sure to do your research.
We see clients way too often who don’t do their research before making their final decision. Mainly, making their decision based on price and/or not seeing work that belongs to the artist whom will be performing their procedure. Yes, budget is always important but remember this is your head and you are stuck with the results. It’s ink and cannot be easily removed. Removal is a long, expensive and a very painful experience.
Cheaper is NOT always better. We have corrected many cheap or inexpensive procedures. Don’t make the same mistake. Do it right the first time!

The cost of the procedure should not be the most important issue when consulting a potential scalp micropigmentation artist. Most important is the training and skill of the person performing the procedure and the confidence of the client in that skill. As everyone’s “Hair Illusions” expectations vary its always best to either contact us directly or schedule your FREE consultation. It would be our pleasure to sit down with you to discuss your individual transformation needs. ​

The great thing about SMP is there is little to NO down time.  Immediately following the procedure the scalp maybe slightly tender and appear slightly red but clients generally return to their normal routine following the procedure.  Keeping in mind that excessive sweating and prolonged direct exposure to the sun should be avoided.

It is difficult to say exactly how long a procedure may take as there are many degrees of hair loss and factors that are taken into consideration when completing a transformation.

Normally, sessions are 3 to 4 hours in length when trying to recreate the hairline and/or rebuild hair illusions to the top of the head.  While scars are typically 1.5 to 2-hour sessions, again depending on the severity of traumatized area.  Scalp micropigmentation is a multi-session procedure usually 3 sessions schedule approx. 7 days apart are required to perfect your transformation.  Exact time does vary depending on individual requirements. Sessions are repeated until the demarcation line between your new hair illusions can no longer be distinguished from existing hair follicles, if present.

Our clients report a mild degree of discomfort expressing that on a scale of 1-10 that the experience is a 2-3. For those clients that are more sensitive to pain we do have a topical anesthetic cream that is available to eliminate any discomfort. Some areas of the scalp have a denser collection of nerve endings than others, particularly at the temples and base of the neck. Clients choose to focus on the benefits of the final transformation of the treatment to help with, if any, sensation. We do try our best at all times to make the procedure as comfortable as possible from beginning to end.

Scalp micropigmentation procedures can last for many years. Pigment retention greatly depends upon skin type, age, aftercare, sun exposure, use of certain skincare products, immune system, etc.
