Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is a non-surgical hair loss solution that uses microneedles to deposit pigment into the scalp, creating the illusion of real hair follicles.

SMP works by replicating the natural appearance of hair follicles using specialized pigments and microneedles. The pigment is tattooed into the scalp in the form of microdots to mimic hair follicles. It can create the look of a shaved head, thicker hair, scar camouflage, or a more defined hairline. Generally, 3 sessions are required.

SMP is a semi-permanent solution that can last between 4 to 6 years before a touch-up is needed.

Anyone experiencing hair loss, including men and women with balding, thinning hair, receding hairlines, alopecia, or scars from hair transplants, can benefit from SMP.
