Is it possible to remove SMP?

Question

What if you don't like the results of SMP, is it reversible?

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

NoScalp MicroPigmentation is like a tattoo.  It is permanent.  Sometimes, tattoo removing lasers may be able to take out some or most of the pigments.  This depends on the SMP pigment used.  Not all SMP can be reversed.I have removed SMP surgically one by one.  This is a very difficult and tedious work.A bad SMP or FUE or hair transplant surgery is like herpes.  You'll carry it for life.

We have published medical journals and text books on this and we teach it every year at the international society meetings.  see below for more informaiton
