Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is a cosmetic tattoo that deposits very small dots of pigment in the scalp to mimic short stubble or give the look of denser hair.

Cleveland Clinic names thinning hair, pattern baldness, alopecia and scars among the uses of SMP. It does not grow hair; it creates the look of a closely shaved head or of thicker hair.

A session can last up to five hours, and three or more sessions are normally required a few weeks apart.

Cleveland Clinic states that results commonly last about four years or more before touch-ups are required.

Risks include allergic reactions, infection and an unnatural look, and people prone to keloid scars are advised to avoid SMP. Choose a trained practitioner who uses sterile equipment.

Flying home: as a day procedure, hair restoration has no aviation rule of its own, so ask the clinic how to keep the grafts protected on the journey.

A Gurgaon quote for scalp micropigmentation is normally made up of these items:

• Assessment beforehand: bloods and a check of the donor area.
• Clinic time: a long day in the procedure room.
• Tax: GST can appear on the bill, since hair restoration sits outside the healthcare exemption.
• Area treated: and density wanted.
• Sessions: normally three or more.
• Practitioner: training and equipment.
• Touch-ups: after some years.

SMP is priced per session or per course, so it is worth asking how many sessions the Gurgaon estimate includes.

Hair restoration in Gurgaon is offered by dermatology and plastic surgery clinics, mostly as day care, so ask who carries out each step and how complications are handled.

NABH, the hospital accreditation board of the Quality Council of India whose standards carry ISQua accreditation, sets the national benchmark for hospitals, and its online directory shows whether a Gurgaon hospital's accreditation is still current.

Before booking cosmetic surgery in Gurgaon, check that the surgeon is listed on the National Medical Commission's Indian Medical Register and ask for their medical council registration number.
