SMP FAQ

  • What is Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP)?

    SMP is a non-invasive cosmetic tattooing procedure that creates the appearance of a fuller head of hair by depositing tiny pigmented dots on the scalp. It’s a great solution for hair loss, thinning hair, or defining a hairline.

  • Is SMP safe?

    Yes! SMP is a safe procedure when performed by a trained and experienced artist. We use professional-grade pigments and follow strict hygiene standards to ensure your safety.

  • How long does an SMP session take?

    The procedure time varies depending on the size of the area of coverage. Most clients need 3-4 sessions to achieve their desired results, spaced 7-10 days apart. 

  • Is SMP painful?

    Most clients describe the sensation as mild discomfort, similar to a light scratch or tingling. We take measures to keep you comfortable throughout the process.

  • How natural does SMP look?

    When performed by a skilled technician, SMP offers very natural-looking results that mimic the appearance of real hair follicles. Our goal is to match your tissue tone and hair color for the most seamless look.

  • How long does SMP last?

    With proper care, SMP can last 2-10 years. Skin type, sun exposure, and chemicals impact the retention. Touch-ups may be needed over time to maintain the look, especially if you experience significant sun exposure or skin changes. 

  • Can I choose the style?

    Absolutely! During your consultation, we’ll discuss your preferred hair color, hairline shape, and style to personalize your treatment.

  • How soon can I expect to see the results?

    You will see a noticeable difference after the first session, but optimal results will develop after all sessions are completed and healing time.

  • What is the healing process like?

    Complete healing typically takes about 7-14 days, during which it’s important to follow our aftercare instructions.

  • Is there any downtime?

    There’s minimal downtime. You can resume normal activities within 5-7 days after each session. Avoid strenuous exercise, sweating, direct sun, and swimming for a few days. 

  • Who is a good candidate for SMP?

    Men and women experiencing hair loss or thinning, as well as those with scars from hair transplants, are good candidates. We recommend a consultation to assess your specific case.

Bod Sculpting FAQ

  • Is Cool Sculpting and other services at BodSculpting painful?

    No. Our CoolSculpting and body contouring services are completely pain-free and comfortable for every patient. We exclusively use non-invasive techniques that never pierce or damage the skin, combined with professional-grade equipment designed for maximum comfort and effectiveness. Unlike other facilities that may use uncomfortable clamps that can cause bruising, our advanced technology ensures a gentle, safe treatment experience. During the procedure, patients simply experience a temporary numbing sensation from the cooling process in the treated area, which naturally fades once the service is complete.

  • What are the side effects to Cool Sculpting and other procedures?

    CoolSculpting is an exceptionally safe, non-surgical fat reduction treatment that has received FDA clearance for use on multiple body areas. The procedure's non-invasive approach eliminates the risks associated with surgery, anesthesia, and incisions, while precisely targeting only fat cells with controlled cooling technology that leaves surrounding skin, nerves, and blood vessels completely unharmed. Your body naturally and safely processes the treated fat cells over the following weeks and months, making this a completely natural elimination process.

  • What if I am scared to try it?

    We understand that every patient has unique skin and fat types, which is why we create completely customized treatment plans tailored to your individual needs and comfort level. During your personalized consultation, we'll discuss your specific concerns and goals while adjusting our advanced machine settings to optimize results for your body type. Our comprehensive approach includes walking you through the entire process step-by-step and sharing testimonials from previous patients who had similar concerns, ensuring you feel confident and informed about your customized treatment plan. All our services are pain-free.

  • Can I keep getting sessions to get rid of all my fat?

    While multiple sessions can effectively target stubborn fat areas, we prioritize your body's health by maintaining essential fat levels needed for proper vitamin absorption and overall wellness. Our professional-grade equipment allows for treatments as frequently as every three days, but we recommend safe weekly intervals to give your lymphatic system adequate time to naturally flush out the treated fat cells. After every 10 sessions, we implement a mandatory 3-week rest period to allow your body to safely adjust and recover, ensuring optimal results while protecting your health. Most patients see noticeable results after each session and feel completely satisfied after 5 to 10 treatments, achieved through our careful, health-focused approach.

  • Am I a good candidate for Cool Sculpting?

    The best candidates for CoolSculpting are individuals who are close to their ideal body weight and have specific, pinchable areas of stubborn fat that haven't responded to diet and exercise. However, certain individuals are not suitable candidates, including those who are obese and seeking significant weight loss, pregnant women or those planning pregnancy, and people with cold-sensitive medical conditions such as Raynaud's disease or cold agglutinin disease. We carefully evaluate each patient during consultation to ensure CoolSculpting is both safe and effective for their specific situation and goals.

  • What other services do you provide other than Cool Sculpting?

    While CoolSculpting remains our specialty for fat cell elimination, we offer complementary services designed to boost and enhance your overall results. Our EMS muscle-building technology can stimulate and strengthen areas like your abs and chest, creating enhanced definition that perfectly complements your CoolSculpting treatments. Additionally, our non-invasive Brazilian Butt Lift treatment provides natural lifting that enhances results when combined with CoolSculpting on areas like the belly or thighs. As we continue expanding our service offerings, we create customized treatment packages tailored specifically to your individual goals and desired outcomes.
