What is Scalp Micro-pigmentation?
Scalp Micro-pigmentation (SMP) is a cosmetic procedure that involves the application of specialized pigments to the scalp in order to create the illusion of a closely shaved or buzzed hair. It is often used as a solution for individuals who are experiencing hair loss or have thinning hair and want to achieve the appearance of a fuller head of hair.
How does SMP work, and who can benefit from it?
The goal of SMP isn’t to create hairlike lines as you would when microblading eyebrows, but instead to use tiny, layered dots in different hues of black to replicate the look of a shadow on your scalp. This style, referred to as pointillism, is done to create natural-looking depth and definition.
A skilled practitioner will work to ensure the dots look like a natural hair follicle and blend in
seamlessly with your complexion.
This process may be useful for people who experience all forms of hair loss. This includes folks with:
• cancer
• alopecia
• thinning hair
• male and female pattern baldness
