Introduction

Scalp Micropigmentation facility owners and artists have a responsibility to operate their facility under the structure of well-developed, up to date and principled procedures. It is important to note that if your Province or State has specific regulations regarding the operation of a permanent makeup or a tattoo business (whichever category SMP falls under in your Country, State or Province), these regulations should be included in your procedural policies. The following list of recommended procedures, taken from several Provincial and State requirements, is considered to be a general and responsible list of operating procedures. You should consult your Province or States Health Department to see if a required guideline exists for you. Process, procedures, requirement, permits, etc, vary from Province to Province and State to State. It is up to each student taking this course to examine all laws and obtain the proper permits and licenses, which are not included in this course.
