Questions people ask before their first visit.
- 01
Does it hurt?
Most clients describe it as mild scratching, not sharp pain. We use topical numbing throughout, and it is far more comfortable than a tattoo over bone.
- 02
How natural does it look?
Done right, nobody clocks it as SMP. Colour is matched to your skin and stubble, follicles are angled and varied like real growth, and density is built up gradually over sessions.
- 03
How long does the full treatment take?
Two to three sessions of two to four hours each, spaced a couple of weeks apart so pigment settles between visits. Most people are fully done within a month.
- 04
Is it permanent, and does it need topping up?
It is long-lasting, not forever. Pigment softens slightly over years. A light touch-up every 12–18 months keeps it crisp. We will tell you honestly when you need one, not before.
