What is Botched SMP?

It’s disheartening to undergo a scalp micropigmentation (SMP) procedure only to end up feeling dissatisfied or let down by the results. Botched SMP is an all-too-common experience, often caused by incorrect application techniques. Problems like mismatched pigment colours, irregular dot sizes, and unnatural hairlines can turn what should have been a confidence-boosting experience into an ongoing source of frustration.

Such outcomes frequently stem from a lack of proper training on the part of the technician. Individuals without expertise in SMP—sometimes even tattoo artists—may attempt to perform these intricate procedures, often with poor results. Fortunately, SMP repair services are here to help. These corrections can transform a disappointing outcome into the polished, natural appearance you originally envisioned.

What To Expect During Your Appointment

At Scalp Evolution, your journey begins with a detailed consultation where our specialists will assess the extent of the botched SMP and discuss your desired outcome. This initial evaluation allows us to create a customised repair plan that meets your specific needs. During this session, we’ll also take the time to explain the repair process in detail, ensuring you have a clear understanding of what to expect and feel confident in the steps ahead.

When it’s time for your procedure, your scalp will be carefully prepared to create the best conditions for success. Using high-quality pigments and advanced techniques, our experts will skillfully address issues such as incorrect pigment tones, uneven dots, or poorly designed hairlines. Depending on the complexity of the repair, multiple sessions may be recommended to achieve the most natural and flawless results. Most clients experience minimal discomfort and can return to their daily routines shortly after the procedure.

Post-procedure care is an essential part of the process. While some redness and mild irritation are normal, these effects typically subside within a few days.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can you correct a botched SMP procedure?

Using advanced techniques and high-quality pigments, our team in Chester, UK can fix uneven dot sizes, incorrect pigment tones, and unnatural hairlines. We prioritize creating a balanced, natural appearance that blends seamlessly with your natural hair, ensuring a flawless result.

Is laser removal necessary for botched SMP?

Laser removal can be beneficial in cases where the pigment is too dark or mismatched. It lightens the area, allowing us to perform SMP repair with a better colour match and more natural-looking results.

What is the difference between SMP and permanent makeup?

Both SMP and permanent makeup involve applying pigment to the skin, but SMP focuses specifically on replicating hair follicles on the scalp to address thinning or hair loss. Permanent makeup is designed for facial enhancements and does not recreate the texture or growth pattern of hair.

Can you fix bad SMP done by tattoo artists?

Yes, we can correct poorly performed SMP by tattoo artists who lack SMP-specific expertise. Our team is trained to fix hairlines and other inconsistencies to restore a natural and realistic look to your scalp.

How long does the SMP repair work take?

The duration of your SMP repair process will vary depending on the extent of the initial errors and the end result you want. Often, multiple sessions will be needed, each lasting a few hours to perfect the look.

What should I expect during the healing process?

Redness and minor irritation may occur on your scalp after each session, but this typically subsides in a few days. Our team will provide you with comprehensive aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing and longevity of your results.

Are the results of SMP repair treatment permanent?

SMP repair results are generally long-lasting, although periodic touch-ups might be required to preserve the look over time.
