How It Works

INKredible Scalp has made it as easy as 3 simple steps to get you a tailored hair loss solution within a matter of days!

Step 1

Schedule a FREE Consultation

Come into our clinic, conveniently located a block away from time square, so that one of our technicians can assess your hair loss, your age, level of baldness, and most importantly, your goals and desired results. We will discuss whether or not Scalp Micropigmentation is the best solution for you and what the benefits are for each. Before committing, our technician will spend the time required with you and draw a mock hairline to make sure you are absolutely certain and comfortable with it.

Step 2

Schedule your 1st sessions

Once you are comfortable and excited about your hair loss treatment plan, the next step is to schedule your 1st treatment session. Depending on the level of hair loss and other factors, you may need anywhere from 2-4 sessions, this will be discussed with you during your free consultation. Sessions 1 and 2 are about 10-14 days apart and sessions 2 and 3 are about a month apart. This is in order to ensure proper healing and the best results.

Step 3

Time for the magic!

It’s the time you’ve been long waiting for! Time to get your long-awaited results. After the first session, you may or may not realize an immediate difference. This depends on your scalp, level of baldness, and the treatment plan put together with your technician. It is important to trust the process. Sessions 2-4 are used to add more pigment, at times with various size microneedles, to give your scalp the most realistic and natural look possible. The goal is to mimic real hair stubbles. Once you are done with each treatment, your technician will provide you with your aftercare instructions.  Time to move on living your life with confidence!

Scalp Micropigmentation Frequently Asked Questions?

What is Scalp Micropigmentation NYC?

Scalp micropigmentation NYC is a non-invasive treatment using micro needles to place tiny dots of pigment on the areas of the scalp that are affected with hair loss to closely resemble the hair follicles surrounding that area so that the results are completely undetected. Depending on the client’s circumstance and desired results, SMP aims to accomplish 2 goals. For clients who have a good amount of hair but suffer from male or female pattern baldness, the pigment placed makes the hair look thicker. For clients who are completely bald, SMP resembles a buzz style cut.

How much does Scalp Micropigmentation cost?

This is a very common question yet difficult to answer without a proper consultation. SMP caters to many different types of hair loss and depending on that our technicians can give a quote. To give you an idea, a client who has a full head of hair with just a few slight balding areas and needs to make it look thicker may only pay $1000 - $1500, whereas a client who is completely bald and wants a full scalp treatment plan may pay anywhere from $3000 - $5000. We always advise our clients to come in for a free consultation so our technician can provide the fairest estimate.

Can people tell I have done a procedure on my scalp?

The results are virtually undetectable by the human eye. With advancements in the industry and the latest technology used, INKredible Scalp’s trained SMP technicians ensure your scalp closely resembles real hair stubbles.

Do I need to take time off of work?

Typically, our clients are able to resume work the next day. The scalp maybe slightly red after the treatment but this subsides within a day or two.

Can I continue using Rogaine and or Propecia after my treatment?

Propecia can be used during and after your treatment. You must however discontinue the use of Rogaine 30 days after your final session to ensure proper healing and settling of the pigment. You can continue after the 30-day mark.

and women. SMP helps to hide the effects of:
•  Male pattern baldness
•  Alopecia
•  Receding hairlines

What ink do you used for SMP and does it change color over time?

We use a globally recognized vegan based tattoo ink for our procedures. The ink passes all health and safety guidelines and is compliant with all EU quality standards. With our expertise in diluting and mixing inks for each individual clients skin undertones and overtones, as well as depth of impressions, color does not change. Lot's of clients are initially afraid of discoloration, particularly their impressions turning blue or green over time; the impressions will lighten over time but remain on a gray-scale blending in well with the rest of your scalp without discoloration.

How long until I can scrub, shampoo, or shave?

We recommend no scrubbing, shampooing, or shaving over the treated area for 4-5 days after your scalp micropigmentation treatment.

Can I wear a hat after my scalp micropigmentation treatment?

Yes. The scalp may be a bit reddish for 2-3 days post session, so we recommend wearing a loose hat after treatment if you wish to conceal the redness.

How long will my scalp micropigmentation last?

SMP lasts different times for everyone. On average, we say to expect a touch up in 3-5 years but it could be required sooner and it could also last longer. Touch ups are not doing the procedure from scratch. Touch ups are to bring back a denser appearance after your previously placed impressions have lightened and faded over time. Different variables affect long term fading such as sweating, sun exposure, your immune systems reaction to the ink over time, etc. SMP is a very safe procedure and as long as done properly, will give off a gentle undetectable appearance of low cut hair over time, even while it lightens over time.

Do you charge for a consultation?

No, we offer free consultations for anyone looking to learn about how scalp micropigmentation can help their hair loss.

What is the aftercare procedure?

During the consultation, l’ll inform you of specific after care
procedures and exactly what to expect but generally you should plan
on not getting your head wet, touching it or sweating from physical
activity for 4-5 days.
