The Hair Doctors

Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is one of the most misunderstood tools in hair restoration. I sat down with SMP expert Matthew Lulo to break down who is truly a good candidate, why skin health matters so much, and when conditions like psoriasis, eczema, or dermatitis may be red flags if not properly evaluated.We cover where SMP fits into the overall hair loss treatment landscape including Norwood 5–7 hair loss, post-transplant density enhancement, female thinning, and even beard and eyebrow SMP. We also discuss how skin type affects pigment retention, why darker skin tones often hold SMP longer, and why beard SMP typically requires more frequent touch-ups.This is essential listening for patients considering SMP, transplant patients looking to enhance density, and providers who want to understand the medical and technical standards needed for safe, natural, long-lasting results.Interested in taking care of your hair loss?Kopelman Hair Restoration: https://kopelmanhair.comTrichogenics: https://trichogenics.comConnect with Dr. Ross Kopelman on Social:Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drkopelmanInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/doctor.ross/Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rootmdYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@drkopelmanConnect with Matthew Lulo on Social:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thescalpking/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@scalpmicrousaTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@scalpmicrousaWebsite: scalpmicrousa.comListen on:Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@Hair.Doctors Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/5bONQFCU6QFExsoWFMuh4S?si=ae4df5f99b5f4e07Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-hair-doctors/id1790424315Want a natural way to address your hair loss?
