The ACHM2®  Procedure

What Can I Expect?
     Upon arrival, you will be welcomed into a relaxing but highly professional atmosphere. You will consult with the ACHM2®  developer, Mark Weston or his colleague, Robert.   You will then complete a client questionnaire and disclosure that will be thoroughly reviewed with you.  The  ACHM2®  is performed in confidential and private procedure rooms by both Mr. Weston and Robert in sterilized environments.  As we service many high profile clients, confidentiality, discretion and privacy is mandatory.

      As we require that your hair is buzzed for the ACHM2®  procedure, we will do that here for you (but not in the procedure rooms as to maintain a sterilized environment).  Your original hairline will be established with an "age adjustment" (recommended).   By taking into consideration your natural skin tone and hair color, the proper ACHM2® SMART Pigments™ will be  chosen for your individual and personal look.   We at Artistry Concepts are compassionate and concerned about how you will look in years  to come as you age. 

     Looking good on the outside makes you feel good inside! 
    
 
Who Performs My ACHM2®?
    We do not  utilize technicians, pracitioners or "trained" specialists as other providers do, as the ACHM2® is not permanent cosmetics to the scalp.  In addition as most men are already self-conscious and embarrassed about their hair loss, permanent cosmetic women cannot relate to men regarding hair loss.  A permanent cosmetics woman cannot possibly understand your personal turmoil with hair loss and we feel this is not an acceptable practice.  In addition, there is no specific training available for permanent cosmetics personnel for such a procedure on a man's scalp.  They merely perform semi-permanent cosmetic procedures to your scalp.   Mr. Weston and his colleague, Robert, both keep extremely busy as full time ACHM2®  artists.
Weston is the developer of the ACHM2® and a 35-year veteran of the tattoo industry.  
 
MARK WESTON
      Coupled with his extensive tattoo experience, he commenced in the medical tattooing  field in 1996 that included areola repigmentation for breast cancer survivors, vitiglio repigmentation and scar camouflage.  He later added micropigmentation (permanent cosmetics).        

     Weston was one of the first in the United States to tattoo the universal diabetic symbol on the wrist of a diabetic client.  He has worked with many people who have been traumatized by illnesses, accidents or flaws in their physical appearance.  No others can follow in Weston's footsteps to offer such a level of cross art expertise.  
 
Weston's exceptional skills and aesthetic sense are unmatched by any other provider in the world today.
 
ACHM2®   Post 15 Months
ROBERT
     Twenty-six years old,  Robert left his home in Pennsylvania and moved to Florida permanently to learn from the master and has been personally and meticulously trained by Mr. Weston in ONLY the ACHM2®.  Robert is the only other person in the world that can perform the ACHM2®  besides Mr. Weston.

     Clients are also able to view the ACHM2™ in person, as Robert's ACHM2® procedure is well over one year old                  

          

     Robert's ability to relate to our clients is compassionate, reassuring and calming due to his own personal battle with hair loss at a young age. Robert has performed many of the procedures featured in our ACHM2®  Gallery.

How Does the ACHM2®  Work?
  The ACHM2®  hair replication is achieved by placing micro-points of our own specially-formulated ACHM2®  SMART Pigments™  into the skin on the scalp, which will be accurately and naturally matched to the density of your own individual natural growth.  Each client receives a custom color mix derived from the base SMART Pigments™  colors.  The new ACHM2®  will be blended down into your existing  hair (not the entire scalp unless you have Alopecia) to complete a finished and natural look. 

     The ACHM2®  is designed to look it's best with a day or two's hair growth, like a "five o'clock shadow,"  so you will be required to wear your hair closely buzzed (not "blade" shaven).  It is nearly impossible to detect the re-created ACHM2®  area unless examined by touch.                     

How Long Does the ACHM2®  Procedure Take?
    On average, the  ACHM2®  replication procedure will take from two to nine hours, depending on the actual hair loss and the area to be blended.   Full Alopecia clients may take as long as 15 hours.  The majority of the ACHM2®  is completed the first day, and with specific overnight care instructions that must be followed, you then return the following day for the final completion. 

     Because of the micron size of the  ACHM2® needles, you develop less irritation, swelling to the scalp and a greatly accelerated healing time compared to that of other providers' methods.  All men are required to be with us for two full days (no exceptions).  The only exception is for HT donor scar camouflage only requiring one day.





The ACHM2®  area will look darker immediately after the completed procedure until "curing."
What Happens Afterward?
     The ACHM2®  healing process is about a week.  Because of the micro size of the ACHM2®  needles, the broken skin is healed over in most clients in as little as a few days.  Any redness from irritation will subside within 24 to 48 hours.  The ACHM2™ area will look darker and/or possibly blotchy until the full ACHM2® SMART Pigments™  curing process is complete (varying per man from 2 to 4 weeks), and the color will "cure" (not to be confused with fading) a few shades lighter than it initially appears.   The hairline may appear more pronounced and will soften to expose it's natural subtleness in a week or two.  You will normally be able to return to your regular schedule the next day, as there is no "down" time.           

     The ACHM2® results last a lifetime as we utilize our own permanent  SMART Pigments™  (not semi-permanent). You will not have to bear the financial burden of repeated scheduled reapplications or touchups months or years later as temporary procedures offered.       All skin is different, so sometimes an occasional one-time only touch up after the initial application is a possibility, but not a probability.   The only "upkeep" is that you keep your own hair tightly buzzed (not "blade" shaven, however) so the ACHM2® makes a flawless transition and refrain from repeated sunburns.
