1 month healed.
This is now fully healed and sitting at a strong 9/10, exactly where it should be at this stage.
The skin has settled nicely, redness has gone, impressions have softened, and the pigment has stabilised well, giving a clean, natural, hyper-realistic finish.
At one month healed, SMP should read like a true 1 mm shaded head of hair, not pigment sitting on the skin. The density is controlled, spacing is even, and there’s no patchiness or overworking.
The structure is exactly where it should be, with a solid foundation already in place. The crown and vertex are reading naturally, and the overall look is conservative in the right way, which is key for long-term realism.
I’m now going to give it a very slight tweak, refining the density using a 40–60–80% saturation pattern to finish the gradient through the mid-scalp and crown. Nothing heavy, just controlled refinement to bring everything together and take it to a true 10/10.
Used .smp.pigment
Final results coming soon.
