Scalp Micropigmentation 

Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that involves the use of specialised pigments to create the appearance of a closely shaved head or a fuller head of hair. It is an innovative solution for individuals experiencing hair loss, thinning hair, or those who want to enhance the look of their hairline.

​

Procedure Overview:

• Microscopic Pigmentation: SMP is a form of tattooing that uses tiny, specialized needles to deposit pigment into the scalp's dermal layer.

• Replication of Hair Follicles: The procedure mimics the look of hair follicles, creating the illusion of a natural, closely-cropped hairstyle.

​​

​Candidates for SMP:

• Hair Loss: Ideal for individuals with various types of hair loss, including male and female pattern baldness, alopecia, and thinning hair.

• Scalp Scarring: SMP can also conceal scars on the scalp from previous surgeries or injuries.

​

Benefits:

• Non-Surgical: Unlike hair transplant surgeries, SMP is a non-invasive procedure with minimal discomfort.

• Immediate Results: Clients can see immediate results after the first session, with enhanced density and a more defined hairline.

• Low Maintenance: SMP requires minimal upkeep compared to other hair restoration methods.

​​

Procedure Steps:

• Consultation: A thorough consultation is conducted to understand the client's goals and assess the scalp condition.

• Customisation: The practitioner customises the pigment color and density to match the client's natural hair and desired style.

• Application: The SMP specialist uses a specialised machine to deposit the pigment, creating a natural-looking hairline and enhancing overall scalp appearance.

​​

Aftercare:

• Healing Period: The scalp may appear red immediately after the procedure, but it typically subsides within a few days.

• Avoiding Sun Exposure: Clients are advised to avoid prolonged sun exposure during the initial healing phase.

​

Results and Maintenance:

• Gradual Fading: While results are immediate, the pigment may fade slightly over time, requiring periodic touch-ups.

• Maintenance Sessions: Touch-up sessions are recommended every few years to maintain the desired look.

​

Considerations:

• Certified Practitioners: It's crucial to choose a qualified and experienced SMP practitioner to ensure optimal results.

• Realistic Expectations: SMP provides the illusion of hair, but it does not stimulate hair growth. Clients should have realistic expectations about the outcome.
