How many sessions required for FUE scar coverage by SMP? (Photo)

January 14, 2020
Asked By:misterpete in England, United Kingdom

I've had 6000 FUE grafts in total, I've approached various SMP providers in UK. Most providers here charge the same price per session but I've been quoted different numbers for sessions required; ranging between 3 to 6 sessions. How many sessions would it take to do this? I am worried because I don't want to do an insufficient number of sessions and also I don't want to do too many!

Is it safe to get SMP to cover FUE scars and fill in my crown?
Richard E. Moore, MD says:

Thank you for your question. You are certainly far enough out from your FUE procedure to move forward with a scalp micro-pigmentation procedure. This should give you the appearance of greater density in the crown and camouflage the scars from your FUE harvesting. It can take 2 to 4 SMP...
