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!
Alex
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 Costa Mesa
FAQs
What is Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP)?
With scalp micropigmentation, there's no surgery, downtime, or recovery phase involved. It's a non-invasive technique where organic, plant-based pigment is carefully deposited into the scalp's dermal layer to emulate the appearance of a complete head of hair.
Individuals dealing with baldness, receding hairlines, and thinning at the crown and sides can benefit from SMP treatments. Whether desiring increased density for existing hair or striving for the look of a closely shaved head with a five-o'clock shadow, scalp micropigmentation stands as a dependable alternative to hair transplants and ineffective topical solutions.
When other alternatives fail, SMP is the reliable choice.
How many treatments do I need?
The majority of our clients in Costa Mesa typically find that two treatments are enough to achieve their desired results. However, in some cases, a third and final treatment may be necessary if the previous two treatments fail to deliver the expected outcome. The first two treatments are scheduled a week apart because the skin often rejects some of the pigment implanted during the initial session. The second treatment aims to restore some of the rejected pigment and recreate the natural appearance of hair follicles.
Yet, there are clients who may experience considerable rejection post the initial treatments, making two sessions insufficient. In such instances, the third treatment is crucial to replenish lost pigments and attain the desired results reflected in the mirror.
How long is each treatment?
The length of each treatment session will depend significantly on the client's requirements and the specific challenges posed by their hair loss. Bearing this in mind, the average duration of a standard scalp micropigmentation treatment falls between two to four hours. Typically, the initial session is longer than the subsequent ones, as it entails constructing the hairline and establishing the foundational layer.
Who decides on the construction of the hairline?
Ultimately, the choice is yours to make. Your practitioner will offer advice based on what suits your features best. The objective is to create a hairline that looks natural, ensuring optimal results. As SMP provides a permanent solution to hair loss, it's essential to ensure satisfaction with the work from the beginning.
I've already had 3 treatments, now what?
Clients in Costa Mesa who have undergone three scalp micropigmentation treatments won't need further sessions until it's time for touch-ups. Yet, to maximize the effectiveness of scalp micropigmentation, it's crucial for every client to adhere to the after-care instructions provided post-treatment. These instructions are carefully tailored to maintain the pigment integrity following its implantation into the dermal layer of the scalp.
Rest assured, all ZangSMP work is backed by a full one-year guarantee. In the event of pigment fading or lightening after the treatments, we offer complimentary touch-up work to restore the lost pigment, ensuring your satisfaction.
When will a touch-up be necessary?
The skin faces significant wear and tear, affecting pigment appearance. Although designed to be permanent, the pigment gradually deteriorates and fades. Typically, clients return to the office every five to eight years following their first SMP treatments.
What are the aftercare instructions?
Upon completing your scalp micropigmentation treatment, your provider will furnish you with a set of aftercare instructions to enhance the outcome. These directions are clear-cut: refrain from touching or cleansing your scalp, abstain from trimming your hair, and avoid intense physical activity for four days. Adhering to these guidelines is vital for preserving pigment retention and minimizing the risk of contamination.
You can sleep in your usual manner without worry, as the pigment won't smear or mark your pillow or bedding. Additionally, you have the option to wear a hat if desired.
Will I miss any work during treatment?
Given that scalp micropigmentation is a non-invasive procedure, you won't have to worry about missing work after receiving SMP treatments. In fact, it's common for our clients to resume their work routine the very next day.
Will people be able to tell I have had the treatment done?
While your scalp may exhibit slight redness and irritation, and the pigments may appear darker and more pronounced initially, these effects generally diminish within two to three days. As the pigments settle and your skin calms down from the implantation process, your scalp will regain a completely natural appearance, regardless of whether you're receiving SMP treatments for increased hair density or to replicate the look of missing hair follicles.
Is SMP Painful?
The concept of pain tolerance is highly subjective, varying greatly from person to person. What may cause discomfort to some individuals might barely register for others. In the realm of Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP), it's vital to stress that the procedure is designed to be gentle and non-invasive. Our dedicated team of practitioners is committed to minimizing any potential discomfort you may experience during your SMP journey. Your satisfaction and well-being are of the utmost importance to us, and we spare no effort in ensuring a pleasant and successful experience. Rest assured, we implement stringent precautionary measures to maintain your comfort and ease throughout every step of the process.
Do I need to keep the shaved look?
The initial consultation phase encompasses a vital component wherein our adept SMP practitioner meticulously evaluates the extent of your hair loss. This stage also involves a thorough discussion to ascertain your objectives and expectations. Upon completion of the meticulous examination, a personalized treatment plan is formulated, taking into account the severity of your hair loss as indicated by the esteemed Norwood scale.
Those falling within the six or seven range on the Norwood scale are advised to embrace a shaved look to overcome discrepancies between hair texture and pigment. This strategic choice not only addresses the challenge of blending but also ensures a smoother integration of pigment, enhancing overall aesthetic coherence.
Do you perform scar concealment?
For those seeking scar coverage, scalp micropigmentation is the perfect choice. Our services are designed to assist clients in concealing scars resulting from injuries and surgeries, including scars from FUE and FUT hair transplants.
Do I need to cut my hair before the SMP treatment?
Achieving successful micropigmentation outcomes for filler treatments or scar concealment necessitates clients to trim their hair to the shortest feasible length. Those encountering significant hair loss at a Norwood six or seven stage must commit to shaving their heads before and after undergoing SMP treatments.

Will it affect the treatment if I continue to shave my head?
If you wonder about shaving your head post-micropigmentation, don’t worry! The process is permanent, and shaving won't harm it at all. Many clients have shaved their heads after treatment with no impact on the pigment. Just make sure to adhere to the after-care instructions provided by the practitioner for optimal preservation of your treatment results.
How do I best protect my SMP from sunlight?
Safeguarding your scalp micropigmentation from sunlight is paramount, and the most effective strategy involves reducing prolonged exposure. Before heading outdoors for an extended period, ensure to apply a high SPF sunscreen to your scalp. Additionally, consider wearing a hat that covers your entire scalp for added protection.
How much does it cost?
Managing hair loss from Norwood class two to class four typically requires an investment ranging between $2400 and $3400. Extending the treatment to Norwood class five to class seven increases the cost to $3400-$4200. Addressing scar concealment on the scalp's upper area may cost between $4200 and $5200 for two to three sessions. Clients focusing solely on scar concealment treatments can expect to pay approximately $800 to $1000 per session.
When are the payments due?
To secure a booking with one of our practitioners at ZangSMP, we require a $400 deposit from every client. Acting promptly is crucial, especially since our current waiting list can stretch up to eight weeks for an appointment. After treatment, clients will split the cost over two sessions. We also provide financing options for scalp micropigmentation; feel free to inquire about these payment options.
