M. Weston Non-Surgical Hair Restoration

After studying many of the SMP guys out there for a few months I decided on Mark Weston SMP. Setting up my full-day session was easy, and Mark was a pleasure to work with. We started in the morning and with breaks in between we finished out my scalp and the result is incredible. I want to say that I am not bald, I have a full head of hair after 3 hair transplants, but I was lacking the density because I had diffuse thinning. Mark's superior technique allows me to grow my hair long without the appearance of thinning, and what everyone else should know is that nobody else can do this. Why? Because everyone else's procedures and inks are temporary, they disappear after a couple years! You have to redo them which means you have to shave your head again and again, so you would never be able to have a permanent result with anything but a shaved or short hair. Mark is one of the original pioneers of SMP, that's why he has the patent on the needles only he has, and his techniques are permanent, so you pay once and you get the effect forever so you can grow your hair out.

I had my procedure done several days days ago. Let me say...BEST decision I have ever made (with the exception of marrying my wife and having children)!! I researched for many months, and doing my homework paid off huge! Men...there is no need to suffer any longer than you already have with baldness. I am so happy with my result. It’s so amazing. If you are reading this, you are likely a great candidate for the Weston System. Call or email Mark Weston to have the procedure done and change your life...literally overnight. One sessionthe solution of a lifetime. When I went in to see Mark...I was a reasonably content bald man. When I left the office later in the day...I was an ecstatic 50 year old man who now looks like I am 40. Plus, I made a friend in Mark that will last a lifetime. He is a consummate professional and an honest, giving man with tremendous ethics and values. What a special guy! Thank you for making my life better Mark!

It’s been two weeks since my appt with Mark Weston. I am very happy to say that I am even more satisfied today than I was immediately following the procedure! My scalp healed very nicely...and the pigment is “laying down” more and more each day. No one has even detected the work! My friends and co-workers that I chose to tell about the procedure are absolutely shocked. They literally cannot believe it! My own 8 year old Son thinks it is real hair...amazing stuff. Game changer for sure. Many thanks to Mark Weston.

Outstanding experience. I'm very happy I found Mark Weston for my SMP. The fact that this is a one-time process (versus the others where it's just good for 3-5 years) and the quality of the materials used makes this the best you can have.

But after a while you will enjoy how differently people see you. I'm satisfied all the claims made by regarding M.Weston Hair Restoration are true and will strongly recommend this service to whomever thinks this will help.

Mark Weston did an amazing job on my procedure. I did lots of research ahead of time and knew the Mark Weston System is the best available. He truly worked a miracle. Before the procedure, I used powder hair fibers to camouflage my balding areas. It was expensive and such a mess. I couldn't go out in the rain, or swim, or sleep on a white pillowcase, or lay my head back on a friend's sofa without leaving my mark of brown powder. I was always self-conscious about if I had missed a spot when fixing my hair and worried about if the wind would be too strong while I was outdoors. NOT ANYMORE! It's truly changed my life.

Nine months after the original procedure, I noticed a few spots that needed a touch-up. This is because he had so much area to cover and my hair was in the way for the original application. Anywhere he put ink the first time...it's still there. But when I asked to return for a fill-in, Mark was true to his word, I was allowed to return to his office for a little more coverage at no charge. This is excellent customer service. He wants his clients to be happy. Cheryl also worked on my touch-up, and she did an excellent job as well.

Kind people who do excellent work. If you are considering this procedure, I highly recommend the Mark Weston system above all others. It works, and I am THRILLED!

I have been struggling for the past 7 years of hair loss due to a follicle infection that went beyond damage to destroying so many follicles that nothing could bring back the hair loss.
After trying[and spending] thousands thru these years on products, equipment,fibers and wigs, to camoflauge what I found to be unpleasant and lowering my confidence as a woman with hope starting to wane to have some resemblance of normalcy .
Just happened to be looking at You tube at hair videos to watch what may be another option and ran across SMP.
The research was on, and narrowed down the prospects due to qualifications, longevity, experience and reviews of efficiency and effectiveness...
My decision was made..Mark Weston had what I was looking for and booked my appt. to change my life, routine, and restore confidence.
It's been 2 weeks now and looking great..
I realise it's a little early for the overall effect being achieved yet ,but it looks VERY promising !!!
Do your research..and get the best... bevause after having settled for what was beyond our control to change safely and effectively with longevity has arrived...
I'm so thankful to have taken this step and it was an overall good experience with Mike and Mark...
Thank you both for helping me to regain the confidence to go out without wigs or fibers and feel good again ....

I started losing my hair after giving birth to 2 kids. I visited the Mark Weston Hair Restoration Center in Fort Myers, and it was a great decision. Mark answered all my questions before I arrived and during the procedure. It took a little longer than I anticipated, but that's expected since only 1 session is needed. Mark and his staff did a great job and I'm very happy with the results. No more wigs or hair color sprays for me. Thank you Mark!!!

Hey so I thought I would write a review here to let you all know what it's like to have SMP after you've had FUE hair transplants.

I won't post any photos for the moment as I want to check with Mark about that first and my phone camera isn't really good enough to do the results justice.

Anyway, if you check out my other review you can see what my hair looked like after two transplants and before my SMP.

So I'll start by saying I am so happy with my results. For the first time in nearly two years, I can go outside without a hat and feel great. I no longer feel insecure about how I look. Lots of people have commented on how nice my hair looks now. I can't believe that I've been able to go from horseshoe bald to having the appearance of a full head of hair. I have Mark and his team to thank for this as well as Maral clinic for doing my FUE transplants.

My experience with Mark and his team from start to finish was perfect. He is such a great guy and made the three days I visited his clinic fun and enjoyable. The rest of the team are all great people as well and you'll know straight away that you are in good hands.

If you are thinking about getting SMP, go to Mark. No one else can offer what he is able to do: permanent SMP that looks amazing. Everything he says about his equipment on his website and videos is true. Add to that he is a skilled artist in his spare time. The clinic is full of his beautiful artwork. He is just as skilled at making SMP blend into your real hair so that you can't tell where your SMP starts and your real hair begins. Likewise, for any scars you might have from FUE transplants as I have.

The process itself hurts a little, but Mark and his team were fun to talk with and Mark has great taste in music so the time went by very quickly. I didn't really appreciate how much there is that you need to know to be good at SMP. Mark has so much experience with the process. He was telling me about how the thickness of the different areas of the scalp requires slightly different techniques as well as lots of other details that I'd never thought about. His attention to detail is second to none.

I'm about four months after my SMP now and I could not be happier with my results. I can wear my hair long or short and it looks great either way. The combination of SMP with FUE really works!

So yeah, if you want SMP go to Mark Weston. There's no one else out there who's offering what he and his team can do. I wouldn't let my friends go anywhere else to have SMP and I'd say the same to you.

My name is Brian from Alabama. I wanted to give this testimony for Mark Weston and his Scalp Micropigmentation System. Like many other guys out there I started losing my hair at a very young age which made me look a lot older than I was. I tried everything on the market from lotions to medicine and even tried a popular “hair system” that didn’t work at all for me because I sweat a lot as I work outdoors year around in the construction field. The “hair system” although looked good when first applied would come loose and start to separate from the scalp! Horrible experience! I was more self-conscious about it than the hair loss itself.
I started searching for other alternatives online back in 2010 and came across Artistry Concepts in Florida and Mark Weston. I knew I had found the solution I was looking for as I always kept my hair cut short and even started shaving my head. I went to Artistry Concepts and had the pleasure of having Mark do my procedure. He made me feel right at home and there was no pain at all.
The final product was more than I could have hoped for and when I returned home people didn’t even know I had anything done. They would say you look younger and with a full head of hair why do you shave your head? It was fantastic!
Fast forward nine years later and it still looks great and I’m even going back to Mark to have the back of my head done where I have lost more hair.
If you are considering have this done I would highly recommend Mark Weston as he is truly the best in the business!

Mark is a professional who delivers what he says. The SMP procedure was booked 1-2 months ahead of time and he arrived as scheduled and we got started right away. It was a single day procedure and I am ecstatic with the results that speak for themselves. The quality is 100% and I have no doubts that I chose the right person with the right tools to do it correct the first time. Thank you so much, Mark!

Some people think that clothes make the man but a good head of hair doesn’t hurt.

Growing up, I’ve always been the cool and popular guy with the great mane. People complimented me left and right and I enjoyed the positive attention; especially from women.

I found the idea of using a blow dryer terrible because that would just fry my hair. My technique was simple and involved two things: a towel and my hands. That’s it. No gel, hairspray, or anything.


With hair that framed my face and head like a crown, it was easy to exude and carry myself with confidence, but all that has changed. These last several years I’ve seen thinning in the back and at my hairline. To solve this problem, I’ve done three different and costly procedures.

The first was a hair transplant. I went to see someone that was recommended to me, even though they were out of state. I was that desperate. I had hair taken out of the back of my head where it’s thicker and then placed in the front at my hairline. It was pretty painful and I swelled up with redness in my forehead and my eyes were closed shut from the inflammation. I kept the hair implants for a short time and then realized how ridiculous this was because it wasn’t a good job. It honestly looked fake, so I ended up paying for electrolysis to have it all removed. Plus, I had an obvious line in the back of my head where they removed the hair for the procedure. I had to grow the area above it longer to cover up the white line of my scalp. This was more of an ordeal than I expected.

The positive relationship I once had with my locks had become one of constant anxiety and stress.

The second place I went to was pricey and temporary. Sometimes I want to kick myself for the money I’ve spent that could have been saved for a nice vacation. The best way to describe this treatment would be similar to a hair weave. You sit there anywhere from one to three hours depending upon how much you need. A trained technician takes individual strands of human hair and attaches it to your head. I sat there for about two hours in order to create the illusion of more thickness. I walked out the door feeling like a million bucks, but that feeling only lasts until the fake strands of hair eventually fall out. The extensions survive for about four to six weeks and then you go back and do it again. I mainly did it when there was a special occasion to attend.

The third procedure I tried was PRP for hair loss. PRP stands for platelet rich plasma. It’s a relatively new three-step process that helps stimulate hair growth. Your own blood is drawn, processed and then injected into your scalp. The injections are spread out over several months. After a year, I honestly haven’t seen a difference so that was a waste of money.

You know how when some people have a problem they want to solve, they become a research fanatic? I became that person. I was determined not to give up because I believed there must be something out there to fix this lousy situation.

I spend about several hours a day on the internet, seeking out products or the latest procedures for hair loss.

I found a temporary solution but nothing long term. I figured I’d give it a try. After all, it wasn’t going to break the bank and may lower my stress level a bit. Maybe even help me feel more comfortable going outside without a baseball hat.

This momentary fix comes in a bottle. It’s a powder that comes in different color hair shades and you sprinkle it where you need it. The two best selling ones are “Toppik” and “Caboki.” I always prided myself on never needing or having to use hair products. Now I was forced to.

I must say that it did exactly as was promised and I felt a little better about venturing outside without my trusty baseball cap. However, there are some negatives. It’s a challenge to do it yourself because it’s hard to see the back of my head. If I get caught in the rain, I could end up with ugly brown streaks that run down my neck and onto my forehead. Plus, it takes time to put on so it looks natural. It’s also messy and gets all over the floor when you first apply it. A windy day definitely puts a damper on things. One big gust and it’s all over. My hair, where the Caboki is, will part like the red sea and ruin all the effort I spent getting it to look just right. At that moment, my mood just goes south.

Caboki was supposed to be hope in a bottle but is more of a hassle than anything.

I have a wife and daughter and admittedly complain a lot when we’re going places because I’m so worried about how my hair will turn out. I’ve declined invitations to parties, and many of my daughter’s school events. I haven’t felt normal for years and want to get my life back on track. To be the confident person I used to be.

In the past six months, I stumbled upon SMP online. I hadn’t heard of it, but it definitely intrigued me to learn more. Finally, something that made sense and is low maintenance. Everything I read lead me to the conclusion that SMP is the answer I’ve been looking for. It’s the one cure for baldness that works. I can eliminate whether I’m having a good day or a bad day based on how my hair turns out.

I watched plenty of video testimonials of happy consumers who had SMP and read boatloads of blogs on the subject. A seed of faith was planted. I familiarized myself with all the hair restoration companies in the U.S. The one that stood out the most and what I compared to the ones where I live in New York, is Mark Weston Hair. Although based in Florida, his sounded the most credible.

Part of doing one’s due diligence is to look at both the positive and negatives of a business they’re considering to use. Seek and you shall find and find I did. I read some conflicting information that didn’t check out.

Ninety-nine percent of these hair restoration clinics stated on their websites that they were the first creators of scalp micropigmentation. Everyone wanted the credit to say they were the first. They were all lying, except for one. Mark Weston. Weston’s site under the FAQ section gives some solid historical background with links and a legal investigation that he had to endure to maintain his brand and the truth that he was the first to offer this procedure to the commercial public in the United States in 2009 before any of these other companies.

There was a second red flag and this one was pretty significant. After I emailed all the New York based companies about my interest in their services, I was told that I would need multiple sessions and that after several years, I would need to come back for retouching because SMP fades. I also found some evidence of poor workmanship in the photo galleries when I compared them to Mark Weston’s work. This is why it’s so important to shop around.


The bad SMP jobs featured men with scalps that had the appearance of shellac or a helmet. In Mark’s photo gallery, I couldn’t tell the difference between whether this was someone’s real hair or not. It was very impressive. Weston has had many men come to him after botched jobs. For me, that was another good sign of a professional. He fixed what appeared to be hopeless cases and changed people’s lives for the better.


Another crack in the information I received during email and phone conversations with the other SMP clinics is their use of numbing creams to decrease discomfort during the procedure. Some facilities even use anesthesia. Mark’s method doesn’t use numbing solutions. The reason being is that it can change the cellular structure of the skin where the ink is applied resulting in migration of the pigment or rejection of it. That explains the appearance of the “helmet” head look where the SMP is all one piece. The evidence kept pointing more and more toward The Weston System.

Many of the people who are operating their own SMP businesses were actually proteges of Mark, but when I emailed to ask if they knew Mark, they said they never heard of him. On Mark’s site, he talks about some of the unfortunate legal issues he’s had with such proteges who denied any connection with him. Ironically, he did their hair restoration procedures so it’s a slap in the face to deny any connection with him or to give him credit for the great work he did. Then again why would they because it would take work away from them.


Mark is the only one who has a patent on these special needles he uses to achieve a realistic appearance resulting in so many satisfied customers. The other companies cannot replicate a natural hair follicle since they can’t use his needles. Mark’s work is unbelievably natural and everyone’s head looks like real hair follicles. That’s a huge selling point. Who doesn’t want their SMP to look like real hair?

Plus, he uses a unique pigment called SMART pigments that do not fade with time. They actually change color naturally as you age so if there’s gray in some of the follicles, they will blend in as gray. The majority of other companies use ink that fades and can turn a shade of blue.

The Weston system requires a one-time treatment that lasts a lifetime. I thought that was remarkable.

When I called and emailed the other hair restoration companies, the majority of them said that it’s impossible to do a single session that lasts a lifetime. I was told that I would need to have several sessions and that the ink will eventually fade. I’ll need to come back for retouches. I wasn’t thrilled to hear that.

My research paid off in spades because it only made Mark’s integrity and his business stand out much more. I learned that the cost of doing multiple sessions is unnecessary and the clinics that tell you otherwise, force you into paying more over time. That’s how these companies rack up and screw the client.

After speaking with Mark on the phone, I just liked the fact that he wasn’t a hard sell. He was very personable, upfront about everything and answered all my questions. His talent precedes him and sells itself.

If I could offer anyone advice who is considering hair restoration, I would say definitely do your homework to make an informed decision that’s best for you. With great confidence, I can say I know I did.
