Many doctors may have different opinions on how long to wait before SMP. 4 months should be more than adequate but check w your doctor.
I would give it 6 months. 4 months might be ok if your body heals fast. SMP is great camouflage for any scar, if done right, scar won't be detectable.
The use of Scalp Micropigmentation to camouflage a scar is probably the best way to manage a scar, something we do every day from people coming from around the world
The amount of hair you report losing is in the normal range but based on you having said the Derm doc thinks you have "AGA with maybe TE", that would indicate a greater than normal amount of hair loss. Best I can say is that you need to see a hair restoration physician to help you sort this out...
The pigment color and size is dependant on dilution of pigment and application by technician, and should be done carefully especially at the hairline. if the appearance of the SMP is not to your satisfaction you can likely have it removed by a laser tattoo removal device. Good luck!!
Scalp micropigmenation can be removed with a laser tattoo removal machine. Find out who in your area uses that and has good experience with it. Good luck!!
