Technician

Scalp Micropigmentation attracts “Amateurish Technicians” who have had very little training in acquiring the skills it takes to tattoo.  A skilled technician knows what equipment is best for the SMP application process. They understand why some inks turn blue and what causes blowouts.

The expertise of the technician breaks down into various factors:

  • Angle of the needle against the scalp

  • Depth of the needle into the scalp

  • Exposure time of the needle contact in the scalp

  • Speed of the rotor

  • Resistance of the scalp

  • Proper color choice of pigment

  • Appropriate needle selection

  • Density pattern

If the technician works too fast, the results will not have the desired longevity, resulting in disappointment.
