What can I do about my SMP disappearing?

October 10, 2016
Asked By:Philadlphia871 in Baltimore, MD

Ive done smp at vinci clinic in beirut and I done my 3rd session 2 weeks ago. Now scabs are starting to peel and take out the ink. The first 2 sessions made no difference to my scalp at all. Im so upset n dissppointed that i spent $1800 on nothing but pain and waste of time! Note that i was told to moisturize after day 2 for 4 days but after the 3rd sessions i felt that i need to hydrate more so im still applying moisturizer till now. Please tell me what should i do
