Scalp micropigmentation and alopecia are words that go hand-in-hand. For generations, people have been searching for a solution to this debilitating condition and there are dozens of products that are available to try.

But there are serious downsides to them, in that they’re either invasive, uncomfortable or expensive – and not guaranteed to work.

The beauty behind the not so secret scalp micropigmentation treatment is it’s not a procedure that promotes hair growth. It masks the devastation alopecia leaves behind and also proudly boasts the label of guaranteed to provide results.

          Scalp micropigmentation, or SMP, is a contemporary aesthetics procedure that is non-invasive. It works by a technician implanting natural and specialized pigments into the scalp using a microneedle. These pigments are implanted in a series of dots that mimic hair follicles. The result is to provide shading sitting under the hair which blends the discrepancy caused by alopecia.
