12 | Northern Enterprise Awards 2022 Oct22635 Best Scalp Micropigmentation & Training Academy In 2015, Leigh Kelly had a life-changing experience: He was diagnosed with bowel cancer, for which he received major surgery and treatment over seven years. When he married his wife, Emma, who is a registered nurse, he wanted to challenge himself and so decided to retrain in an area that he has personal experience of – how hair loss and hair replacement can affect your confidence and wellbeing. Now, Leigh is pleased to be helping people enhance their appearance and restore their confidence, at what could be the hardest time of their life. Priding himself in providing Britain’s fastest, non-invasive hair loss solution, Leigh Kelly is a scalp micropigmentation (SMP) masterclass specialist and one-toone coach at North West Scalp Clinic & Training Academy in Bolton, UK. He provides professional, bespoke, low-cost scalp micropigmentation treatments and training to clients across Wigan, Manchester, Bolton, and Liverpool. Leigh is indeed the expert when it comes to SMP, providing friendly, top-notch advice and procedures. He understands that choosing SMP can be a very big decision, so he supports clients from their free consultation, during treatment, right through to aftercare. There are various causes of hair loss in both men and women, and unfortunately, it is often permanent, which means the follicles are no longer able to grow hair. While some hair loss treatments can be successful, they are very expensive and require daily commitment, making it tedious and time-consuming. Hair transplant is not guaranteed and can leave unsightly scars on the back of the scalp where the donor hair is taken from, adding a secondary problem for the individual. What is scalp micropigmentation? SMP isn’t a solution to grow back hair, but it is a life-changing, low-maintenance hair loss treatment where natural pigments are applied to the scalp to replicate the natural appearance of hair follicles. The treatment covers bald spots and hair loss, and creates the illusion of a short, shaved head or thicker looking hair, as well as camouflages scars. It delivers natural results and leaves clients feeling more confident. The procedure involves using a specialist microneedle to deposit organic pigment into the scalp. Over the course of three separate appointments, a new custom hairline will be pre-drawn and then densities built up on the scalp. On the first appointment, the hairline will be mapped out and a pigment tone selected based on the client’s skin tone, hair colour, and age. A primary layer of follicle replications are created. On the second and third appointments (7-14 days later, as healing time is required), more impressions are added between the previous ones to tighten up the density, giving the appearance of a full head of shaved hair. A complementary fourth session is then added within three months to ensure the client is exceedingly happy with their results. SMP gives clients a great, realistic solution to deal with their hair loss, and the shiny appearance of the scalp is reduced drastically. When a client chooses North West Scalp Clinic & Academy, there is zero risk of scarring, with the bonus of any existing scarring on the scalp being camouflaged. SMP is long-lasting, however, it is important to remember than sun and other environmental issues will gradually fade the pigment over time, therefore routine top-up sessions are recommended.
