S.M. Enhancements


Frequently asked questions: 

What is the difference between Scalp Micro-pigmentation and a regular head tattoo?
A:  Although some people may label, it’s actually quite different. Firstly, and perhaps most importantly, is the skill of the practitioner. We have treated thousands of clients and are able to skillfully replicate look of natural hair. Needles are firmly embedded into the dermis which is one of the more controlled layers of the skin. This is what prevents the dispersion of any ink. Also, the needles used for this technique are single-use needles that are three quarters smaller than any available tattooing needle.

Can Scalp Micro-pigmentation disguise scars?
A: Absolutely. SMP will help with large hair transplant scars, surgeries, accidents or spots of alopecia.

Am I a candidate for SMP procedure?  

A: Most people are a candidate for SMP. However, if you have a history of keloids or hypertrophic scarring, this is not the best procedure for you. Also, any one currently being treated for chemotherapy, diabetes, high blood pressure or using a Retina A, should consult with their doctors before booking an appointment. 

How many treatments should I expect? (Booked sessions will be scheduled for 2hrs)

Scalp micro-pigmentation should never be considered a one treatment process. Most clients can expect between 2-4 sessions to complete their treatment depending on the extent of hair loss or scarring. These treatments are usually spaced about 10-20 days apart. Everyone skin is different results and duration time between touch will vary. 

What is the difference between Hybrid and Classic Eyelash extensions?

 This is a blending of both the Classic and Volume eyelash extension techniques. Volume fans and Classic eyelash extensions are intermixed to create a fuller lash line. This gives a slightly fluffier appearance to the lashes than straight Classic eyelash extensions. Check out our pictures on Instagram for more before and after looks.

How do you apply bottom lashes? 

Your eye will be open slightly for this, bottom lashes are much shorter, thinner, and less noticeable than upper lashes. Usually just 15 to 30 minutes. This is because there is no need have extensions on every lash. Often, between 10 to 15 is sufficient. They do not last as long as top extensions. 

What Are Brow Extensions? (40 mins to 1 hour session)

Just like with hair extensions and eyelash extensions, eyebrow extensions involve gluing hair (in this case, synthetic hair) to your existing eyebrow hairs—or, if you have none, the skin itself—to create the appearance of naturally thicker and fuller brows.

What Is a Non-surgical Butt Lift? (45mins to 1 hour sessions)

*Plumps the booty! *Increasing lymphatic flow to remove toxins and water retention. *Exfoliating the skin. *Professional grade suction, makes area smoother and more toned in appearance. * Helps to manipulate fat to sculpt a more ideal booty shape.  Help with sciatic nerve pain.  *Breaks up cellulite deposits. *Plumps the buttocks for a rounder and lifted look! *Equivalent to 400- 500 squats! *Feels amazing! *Some bruising may occur. 

What is Body Sculpting/Cavitation Treatments? (45mins to 1 hour sessions)

Ultrasonic cavitation relies on ultrasound technology to break apart fat cells. Ultrasound waves are sent deep into the layers of your skin, causing a disruptive vibration. Fat cells then break apart from each other and are dislodged from your dermal layers. After a few days, the fat cells are absorbed by your lymphatic system and drained as waste from your body.

Are multiple treatments needed? 

It depends on the clients personal goals and desired look but ideally, multiple treatments are needed.

Is there down-time with any of the body treatments? 

NO, downtime.  Some people may have some bruising or feel sore after their treatments (like an intense work out).

** Do NOT book and appointment : If you are receiving any cancer treatments. If you have a pacemaker or any serious heart conditions. If you have any open wounds or sores in the area.  If you are pregnant or breastfeeding. 

** When you are having cavitation treatments done the fat cells that are dissolved are excreted in your urine. You need plenty of fluid to help flush them out of your body. When you consume caffeine or alcohol you are dehydrating yourself making it harder for your body to flush itself out. You need to drink 4 extra cups of water for every one caffeinated or alcoholic beverage you consume on top of your normal 8 cups or more a day on average.  *Diet and exercise will create faster results.

What is Jaw Line Sculpting?

What is Wood Work Therapy?

     20-25 min session

* Benefits: Body wood therapy is a comprehensive treatment with several benefits.

First, it aims to drain localized fat to reduce and shape the figure. Stimulates lymphatic drainage and helps prevent lactic acid buildup from strenuous workouts. It helps to reduce stress and muscle tension caused by poor posture/lack of movement or excessive physical activity (athletes will benefit tremendously from this therapy).

How Often should I receive treatments? 

Wood therapy is most effective as an ongoing treatment, similar to how regular massage therapy works. The more consistent you are with it, the more noticeable and longer-lasting the effects will be. Athletes and people that train intensity will benefit greatly.
