Just finished my 3rd session with Walter, best investment ever. I've tried everything short of a hair transplant over the past ten years and eventually stumbled upon SMP. I searched and researched the best SMP practitioners in the country and then decided to call the folks at Zang. Ridwan expertly walked me through the whole procedure and answered all of my questions.
If you're comfortable with the buzz cut look, SMP is the only way to go. And the team at Zang SMP are the real deal, true artists.

As a female, I didn't want to leave a public review in fear of someone I know seeing it - but at the same time, I want everyone to know about the amazingness that Zang SMP is!!! As someone who struggled with severe postpartum hair loss and a receding hair line, I really thought I would be a slave to hair powders and fillers for life (if not a transplant) and that has all changed!! I cannot say enough wonderful things about the entire experience!! If you are female and hesitant to do this, DON'T BE!!! It will change your life!!! Huge thank you to Ridwan, Walter, and the rest of the guys at Zang!! Forever grateful!

I don't normally write reviews cause it's a waste of my time but I have to this time. Over the last 20 years, I've done 3 hair transplant procedures and I was not happy with the results. I started looking into SMP and call many places before I settled with ZangSMP. It's a bit more expensive but let me tell you, worth every pennies. After the 2nd time, everyone said there's no sign that I was ever bald. And what can I say about Walter. I couldn't thank him enough. He gave me the confident I needed and a new look in life. He's such a perfectionist and took the time to do it right and make sure I'm happy with the result. I even recommended my brother to give him a call.

Thank u so much Walter and Ridd for your excellent customer service and I can't be any happier with the results. Walter is truly a master of his craft and he was able to hide my scar very well. I had gone to a different smp place before but wasnt happy with results. Zang Smp gave me the results I was looking for. There a reason why they have 5 stars on their reviews! Highly recommend!

These guys changed my life for the better. I have had alopecia for 10 years, wearing wigs and being generally uncomfortable. I was looking for a long-term solution to my alopecia and this was it. Ridwan is a delight to set things up with, and Walter has a real eye for the details. This is worth the money. A load has been lifted and I couldn’t be happier. My only regret is not coming here sooner!

Zang is THE most skilled and experienced SMP practitioner BY FAR. I have had multiple treatments with him to fill in the density in my hair and beard, and the results are amazing. People don't even believe I've had anything done until I show them my before/after pics. Zang is a great guy with an incredible attention to detail, and his work has restored my confidence big time. I really can't recommend him enough. 5 stars!

Best Scalp Micropigmentation in Arlington
FAQs
What is Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP)?
Scalp Micropigmentation is a non-surgical method of inserting organic plant-based pigment deposits through the dermal layer of the scalp. The pigment deposits replicate natural hair follicles and create the appearance of a full head of hair. If you are completely bald we provide the 5 o’clock shadow look; and if you are thinning or not satisfied from hair transplants/hair transplant surgery and require more density, SMP could be the solution you need.
SMP is not only an affordable and permanent solution to hair loss but also offers immediate results with minimal downtime, making it a convenient option for many. At Zang SMP, where the practitioners undergo master training, every treatment is tailored to the individual, ensuring a personalized and relaxed experience.
Can SMP help with hair loss and thinning hair?
Yes, SMP can help with hair loss and thinning hair. SMP is a technique where pigmented material is applied using miniature fine needles to replicate the look of hair follicles. This method provides natural-looking results and can create the appearance of a fuller head of hair, especially beneficial for those experiencing thinning hair.
This treatment can boost self-esteem significantly by enhancing the hairline and filling in bald spots. Additionally, SMP can also address other hair loss conditions such as alopecia areata, scars from hair transplant surgeries, or thinning hair across the top of the scalp. Zang SMP offers a free consultation to discuss your specific needs and expectations, helping you understand how SMP can benefit you.
In order to achieve the best results, how many treatment procedures of SMP should I undergo?
Scalp Micropigmentation is usually performed with at least two sessions, with each session taking place one week apart. Because it will be your skin that we are going to be working with considering that it is the biggest organ on your body, to ensure that our process is successful, we expect some pigment to be rejected by your skin shortly following your initial treatment. We anticipate seeing substantial positive results after the first treatment, but following the second session, we expect to see more of a completion of the procedure. There is a potential of a third treatment 1-3 months following the second treatment, during which we will put the final touches on the results.
What is the timeframe of every treatment?
Each session lasts from 2-4 hours, based on the amount of work involved. The first procedure is usually the most time-consuming since we are building the hairline and laying it in the fundamental layer of the hair. Every successive treatment is generally shorter in duration, however, this might vary depending on how well prior treatments were retained.
In determining the hairline construction, who will decide on it?
There are already a variety of elements that affect which hairline is most appropriate for you. We tailor your hairline to complement your unique characteristics in order to get the most authentic and suitable results possible. Our calculations also take into consideration your own tastes, because there is a wide variety of choices for what might appear realistic for any one person.
What to do after undergoing three treatments already?
After you've completed the first postoperative recommendations, you may sit back and enjoy the benefits of the SMP therapy. We do provide a one-year warranty with our treatment programs, so if there is any fading of the pigments, you can be certain that we will patch it up at no additional cost to you during that time. Afterward, we'll meet up again in a couple of years!
How many years will it take when you say “a few years”?
Generally, we anticipate that our clients are going to require touch-ups between the first 5-8 years of service. Although this is a permanent surgery that will last indefinitely, there is regular wear and tear on the surface of the skin that enables it to lighten up across time as a result of general wear and tear.
So I don't need to take time off from work?
Scalp Micropigmentation is non-invasive and nonsurgical. There is no downtime associated with it, you only need to follow the 4 day aftercare. Many of our clients come in for treatment and go back home on the same day, and start work again the following day.
Will there be any post-op care instructions to be provided by the SMP professional?
If you want to reduce if not avoid severe fading and contamination, it is essential that you observe our 4-day post-treatment recommendations. For the very first four days, there is to be no touching, bathing, or cutting, and there is to be no exercise. Immediately following every procedure, you may put on a hat to protect your head from the sun. Don't be concerned if you are going to be sleeping on it, since the pigment will not smudge or spread on your pillows as you sleep on them. Aftercare instructions are included in the PDF attachment.
Will I still need to take some time off to work after the SMP procedure?
Non-invasive and non-surgical scalp micro pigmentation are the two terms used to describe this procedure which means that there is no downtime that is required; you simply need to adhere to the aftercare instructions for four days. There are a number of patients that come in for an SMP procedure and then they immediately return home or report for work the very same day.
Will the SMP treated area going to be noticed by people?
When first applied, pigments will appear bolder than usual since they are being deposited freshly. It is possible to detect a softening as well as for settling of the pigments overnight. Furthermore, you will not have to worry when you see any redness because it is going to fade within 48-72 hours after it has appeared. The intensity of redness is determined by how sensitive your skin is going to be, however, customers will observe a significant reduction in redness two days after their first treatment, more or less. Once the first settling phase is complete, your procedure will appear entirely natural.
Is it painful?
The bulk of our clients who had SMP have said that the pain is not quite as terrible as that of a conventional tattoo. Although pain tolerance will vary from client to client, however, your health and safety are our top priorities. Our professionals will make certain that the procedure runs as smoothly as possible.
Is it necessary for me to maintain my shaven appearance?
We will evaluate your hair loss during the appointment or through a web-based evaluation. Once we have a better knowledge of the type of hair loss you are experiencing, we can develop a treatment plan that includes the style as well as the look that we will propose that would be most effective with our SMP technique. The quantity of covering we have generated on the top of your head with SMP necessitates that clients with Norwood 6-7 hair loss have their hair shaved to preserve their appearance. It will become more noticeable as your hair on the back and sides continues to grow since there is a clear difference in color between your hair as well as the SMP as time goes on. As a final result, we are recreating hair follicles with pigmentation, that will never develop or produce a 3D texture, and this operation is considered permanent cosmetic surgery. Filler treatments are defined as those that increase the density of an existing hairline and/or the density of the crown. Those who still have considerable hair surrounding the treatment region, which allows us to mix the SMP in with the surrounding hair, are excellent candidates for filler procedures.
Do you also provide scar concealing services?
WYes! The treatment of male pattern baldness with scalp micropigmentation is not the only application for this procedure. It may also be used to cover up scars from prior operations or injuries, among other things as it can also be used to hide scars from both FUE and FUT transplantation.
Is it necessary for me to trim my hair prior to the SMP treatment?
If we are performing a filler procedure or scar concealing, we generally ask our customers to arrive with their hair at the shortest length they want to retain, except as otherwise specified. If you already have category 6 or 7 baldness, you would have to shave your head prior to coming in for the procedure and keep it at that length during the treatment process.
What can I do to ensure that my vehicle is in peak operating condition?

How to protect my newly treated SMP from sunlight?
If the pigments are exposed to too much direct sunlight, they might become weak, and over time, you will be causing damage to both the treatment area and your scalp. Always wear sunscreen or a cap anytime you're going out and anticipate being in direct sunshine for more than an hour, regardless of the season.
How much will the SMP procedure be going to cost?
The cost of SMP varies from case to case and is determined by the extent of hair loss as well as the extent of treatment required. Two treatments are scheduled one week apart, with the option of a third treatment scheduled 1-3 months following the second. Scar concealing treatments cost between $800 and $1000 each treatment. The cost of treating class 2-4 baldness ranges from $2400 to $3400. The cost of category 5-7 hair loss ranges from $3400 to $4200. The cost of 2-3 treatments on the top of the scalp including scar concealing ranges from $4200 to $5200.
When should I make payments for my SMP procedure?
For you to reserve your session dates with us, we require a $400 booking deposit. An appointment usually requires a waiting period of 8 weeks in most cases. Afterward, we divided the funds equally across the first two therapies. We also provide loans for our customers.
What is the best way to get started?

In lieu of coming in, you can give us a photograph of your scalp (top-down, birds-eye view) and an image of your scar, and we can book a phone consultation or Facetime/Skype video session with one of our specialists.
