What is
Scalp Micro Pigmentation?
Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure in which tiny dots of pigment are deposited into the upper layer of the scalp using fine needles, creating the appearance of hair follicles. Often described as a specialised form of cosmetic tattooing, it is used to replicate the look of a closely shaved head, add the impression of density to thinning hair, or camouflage scars from injury or hair transplant surgery. Unlike a traditional tattoo, SMP uses purpose-made pigments and shallower needle penetration so the dots stay small and crisp, without blurring or shifting colour over time. Treatment is typically carried out over two to four sessions spaced a week or more apart, allowing the practitioner to gradually build up density and match the shade to the client’s natural hair colour and skin tone. Results generally last several years before a top-up is needed, as the pigment gradually fades with sun exposure and natural skin renewal. It does not regrow hair or stop hair loss, but it offers a low-maintenance, immediate visual solution for people with male or female pattern baldness, alopecia, or receding hairlines.
