SMP can be effective for various hair loss conditions, including androgenetic alopecia, alopecia areata, and thinning hair. However, it's best to consult with a professional to determine if it's right for your specific situation.
How long does the SMP procedure take?
The procedure typically takes upto 3 hours per session, depending on the extent of the area being treated. Multiple sessions may be required for optimal results.
How long does SMP last?
SMP can last anywhere from 3 to 5 years, depending on factors like skin type, sun exposure, and aftercare. Touch-ups may be needed to maintain the appearance.
