Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is a popular solution for hair loss, but sometimes, individuals seek laser tattoo removal due to changes in preferences, poor-quality work, or a desire for a fresh start. At New Age Spa in Montreal & Laval, we offer PicoSure laser tattoo removal, the safest and most effective method to fade or completely remove SMP with minimal risk and faster results.
Why Remove Scalp Micropigmentation?
While SMP can provide the appearance of a fuller hairline, some individuals may seek removal or correction due to: ✔ Unwanted results: Uneven pigment, unnatural look, or improper shading
✔ Color fading: SMP can fade unevenly over time, turning blue, green, or ashy
✔ Change in hairstyle: Some clients decide to grow out their hair and no longer need SMP
✔ Poor SMP work: Incorrect pigment depth, wrong ink color, or unnatural hairline
Regardless of the reason, laser tattoo removal is the safest and most effective way to correct or remove SMP.
PicoSure Laser for Scalp Micropigmentation Removal – How It Works
PicoSure is the gold standard for tattoo removal and works exceptionally well on SMP pigments, including black, gray, and faded ink. Unlike traditional lasers, which heat the pigment, PicoSure shatters the ink particles into microscopic fragments that are naturally flushed out by the body.
Why Choose PicoSure for SMP Removal?
✔ Faster results: Requires fewer sessions than traditional lasers
✔ Minimal discomfort: Less painful than Q-switched lasers
✔ Effective on all ink colors: Black, gray, and blue SMP ink
✔ Safe for all skin tones: Works on light to dark skin
✔ No hair follicle damage: Does not affect natural hair growth
What to Expect During Scalp Micropigmentation Laser Removal
Step 1: Consultation
Our laser specialists at New Age Spa assess your SMP ink depth, skin type, and removal goals to create a customized treatment plan.
Step 2: Laser Treatment
- The PicoSure laser pulses penetrate the skin and break up pigment particles
- Each session lasts 10-30 minutes, depending on the treatment area
- You may feel a mild snapping sensation, similar to a rubber band
Step 3: Healing & Recovery
- Mild redness & swelling for a few hours after treatment
- Over the next 4-6 weeks, the body gradually flushes out ink particles
- Multiple sessions (typically 3-6) are required for complete removal
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. How many sessions are needed to remove SMP?
The number of sessions depends on pigment depth, color, and skin type, but 3-6 sessions are typically required for complete removal.
2. Does SMP laser removal hurt?
Most clients describe the sensation as a mild snapping feeling on the skin. A numbing agent can be applied to minimize discomfort.
3. Will the laser damage my natural hair follicles?
No! PicoSure does NOT affect hair follicles, meaning hair can still grow naturally after treatment.
4. How long do I need to wait between sessions?
Sessions are spaced 4-6 weeks apart to allow the skin to heal and flush out the broken-down pigment.
5. Can I lighten my SMP instead of fully removing it?
Yes! Many clients choose partial fading to allow for SMP corrections or a new design.
6. Are there any side effects?
Side effects are minimal and may include redness, slight swelling, or temporary lightening/darkening of the skin, which fades over time.
