The potential returns you can generate by offering scalp micropigmentation as a stand-alone treatment, or by adding it your clinic’s existing treatment list, are very attractive. The price you can charge depends on the type of treatment that’s required. Artists who have attended the Micropigmentation Academy micropigmentation school charge an average of $1,000 – $1,200 for a transplant scar cover-up. That goes all the way up to around $3,500 for an individual who has very little hair and requires a more extensive treatment. The majority of customers with male pattern baldness who need work on the hairline, top, and side of their scalps typically spend $1,600 – $3,000. 

Treatments usually take around 3 – 4 hours for the first session and 2 – 3 hours for the second session. If you perform just 2 treatments a week at an average treatment cost of $2,000, you could earn $4,000 dollars a week and over $200,000 a year.
