Scalp Micropigmentation Treatments
Reclaim Your Hairline!
What Is SMP?
Scalp micro pigmentation (SMP) is a cosmetic procedure that involves the application of pigment to the scalp to create the appearance of hair follicles or stubble.
It is a non-surgical and minimally invasive treatment for hair loss that can be used to camouflage baldness, thinning hair, or receding hairlines in both men and women. It can also camouflage former hair transplant scars. The SMP technique uses a specialized micro-needle to apply pigment to the scalp in tiny dots, replicating the look of a closely shaved head and a fuller head of hair. Scalp Micropigmentation rejuvenates our clients, reversing the effects that baldness and thinning hair can have on an individual’s self-confidence.
The color and shape of the pigment dots are customized to match the client’s natural hair color and style, resulting in a natural-looking and long-lasting solution for hair loss. SMP is a safe, effective, and low-maintenance option for anyone looking to improve their appearance and confidence by enhancing their hairline or creating the illusion of hair density.

How Is SMP Done?
Understanding The Process
Below is our process on our SMP procedure. The treatment will be complete after a number of sittings, which is usually a minimum of 3, potentially more depending on the individual.
01 Consultation
The process kicks off with a detailed consultation. We will assess your current situation and plan the route forward, including styles of the hairlines , the amount of sessions and requirements for your first treatment session. We will also walk you through the procedure in person.During this consultation any of your questions will be answered so you have everything you need to begin the treatment.
02 First Session
For your scalp micropigmentation to look the best quality and authentic is simply can’t be done in a day of treatment. As a rule of thumb you will require a minimum of three sittings.
In your first session, we will start mapping out your treatment (of course this will vary depending on your required treatment). After mapping out, you will be left with some initial impressions.
03 Second Session
In your second session, we will sit down and make more impressions to give your scalp a layered looking effect. It will start to all come together in this session. Grain, density and darkness will be added to give a natural effect.After each session, you will start to see the results take shape.
04 Third Session
For some individuals, this may be your last treatment, but in this session, we will make more impressions on your scalp and finishing touches.
05 Fourth Session (Potential)
Don’t worry, if you require more than three sessions it isn’t bad, it just means that we need to do a little extra work to ensure we give you the best results possible.
This could be down to many factors, such as the size of the area being treated and the skin type.
We will also give you a complete aftercare guide to ensure that you are left with long-lasting results.
06 Aftercare
Your treatment is now complete! Aftercare is just as important as the treatment to ensure long lasting effects.
Upon completion we will talk your through how to maintain your scalp micropigmentation, but you can also find a detailed aftercare guide here too.
Prepare the right way!
Pre care
We aim for total and complete satisfaction, so we want to provide you with the following pre-care instructions. Please follow these carefully.
Wash your scalp with a non-abrasive, gentle shampoo the week prior to your procedure. We want your skin neutral: not too oily and not too dry, this would be the optimal skin type. No tanning or sunburn before coming in.
Healthy skin = best results.
- You may moisturize the skin with some form of skin moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated
- Refrain from sun tanning to avoid burning and peeling of the skin.
* Eat a healthy meal the day of your procedure, and drink lots of water. No alcohol, no smoking, no caffeine 24 hours before the procedure. - Please SHAVE your head with a razor 1-2 days before your procedure, or with a foil shaver 1 day before, or with a clipper the day of your procedure
- Please do not use a razor on your scalp within 24 hours of the scheduled procedure. It is critical that we see all native hair in order to properly blend the hair follicles.
Look After Your Treatment
After Care
Avoid touching, showering or shaving the treated area.
Avoid any physical activities that may cause excessive sweating.
When showering, do not wash your head or get any water on it.
Avoid swimming, swimming pools, saunas, steam rooms and tanning beds.
- DAY 4 -10:
Gently wash your scalp with warm water do not aggressively scrub the scalp or exfoliate. After showering gently pat dry.
Apply a natural moisturizer two times daily, to prevent dryness and flaky skin.
If the hair on top of the scalp grows too long in between SMP sessions or if you need to shave your head, I use an electric clipper such .If you still have micro abrasions avoid shaving all together. Do not take a wet razor to the scalp for at least 10 days.
You are now permitted to perform activities which may cause you to sweat lightly, such as light cardio and lifting light weights. - DAY 10: At this point you may use shampoo. Gently massage the scalp using a natural, mild soap such as an infant shampoo. You may also get back to your usual gym/cardio routine and sweat as much as you’d like. If you’re in the middle of your SMP sessions it is at this point where you will probably be coming back in to continue your SMP sessions.
15 days after your completed procedure all regular activities including swimming, saunas, steam room, tanning booths are now permitted.Use a quality non-greasy SPF +50 sunscreen for everyday use and scalp protection.
Continue to moisturize daily with a natural, simple moisturizing cream.
Try to avoid direct, intense sun exposure as best as possible.
