“I met with several other SMP studios in NYC before going with Erik. The level of detail and the care the whole way through were exactly what I was looking for.”
Good to know
Will it grow my hair back?
No, and that's the point. SMP isn't a hair-growth treatment. It recreates the look of a full head of closely shaved stubble, and the result is there the day you walk out. Permanent, no waiting, nothing to keep taking.
How much is it?
A fraction of a transplant, and unlike pills or fibres, you only pay once. A transplant runs well into five figures, with scars and a six-month wait. Meds and concealers are a bill you keep paying every month, for a result that disappears the day you stop. SMP is one investment, between $1,200 and $3,200 depending on how much we're rebuilding, for a full, permanent hairline that's there the day you walk out. It buys back more than money: the time, the worry, and the quiet confidence of never thinking about your hair again. You get your exact number once we've seen your photo and assessed your situation, with zero pressure.
Do I have to keep it shaved?
For the classic look, yes. It pairs with a closely shaved or buzzed style, kept up with a quick home shave a couple of times a week. If you're adding density to thinning hair, you can keep some length. We find your look on the call.
Will it look real?
Yes. We replicate closely shaved stubble with thousands of tiny impressions. Your own barber won't be able to tell.
Is there downtime?
None. You're back to normal the same day.
How long does it last?
It's permanent. Optional touch-ups keep it sharp over the years.
