I started losing my hair and self-identity in my twenties. I spent 10 years looking for a solution until I met Sandra. She had restored my confidence and forever transformed my outlook on life.

Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is an innovative, non-surgical hair restoration technique that creates the appearance of natural hair follicles through the precise application of specialized pigments to the scalp. Using advanced micro-needling technology, tiny dots of pigment are deposited into the upper layers of the scalp, replicating the look of closely-cropped hair follicles and creating the illusion of fuller, denser hair coverage. This cutting-edge procedure works by strategically placing thousands of these micro-impressions to camouflage areas of thinning hair, restore receding hairlines, and add visual density to sparse regions.
At both Magic Ink SMP and Northwestern Hair Restoration, SMP serves as either a standalone solution for patients seeking immediate results or as part of a comprehensive hair restoration plan that complements medical treatments and surgical procedures. The technique delivers natural-looking results that are customized to match your hair color, skin tone, and desired hairline, providing a permanent solution that requires minimal maintenance while helping you regain confidence in your appearance with virtually no downtime.

HAIR LOSS MAKE UP ARTISTS
Master Scalp Micropigmentation Practitioner, Founder of Magic Ink SMP, recipient of the Meeting of the Minds award. Fourteen years in the field. More than ten thousand completed sessions. More than thirty-five hundred unique patients. Mike built Magic Ink to do scalp micropigmentation without the compromises that come with working inside a larger franchise model. The patients who travel to Winnetka from across the country and internationally are the practice’s evidence.
Where the practices fully combine is in the women’s pigmentation work. Adaptive Trichopigmentation (ATP) is a scalp pigmentation technique Dr. Vinay and Mike developed together, specifically for female hair loss. Like traditional scalp micropigmentation, it places pigment in the scalp to create the appearance of fuller hair density. Unlike traditional SMP, the pigments are cosmetic-engineered and color-matched to the patient’s natural hair tones, placed superficially in the epidermis so they exfoliate naturally over months rather than lasting permanently, and mapped against the future hair transplant work a woman’s case may require. It’s the women’s-specific answer to a question the field has not properly addressed: how to deliver the visual density of pigmentation without the long-term constraints that traditional SMP imposes on a multi-decade disease course.
I’m a hair stylist, patient and enormous fan of Sandra. I spent years working with other dermatologists and hair experts, trying over a dozen hair loss treatments. Nothing provided lasting results. I love how Sandra’s treatments fit my life. The upkeep is practical! I refer all my clients to her and they all come back with amazing hair, saying Sandra is so artistic and professional. Sandra is 100% recommend by myself and every single one of my clients who has met him.
