Scalp Micropigmentation
Hair loss can affect confidence at any stage of life. At Elite Scalps SMP, we provide advanced scalp micropigmentation treatments designed to recreate the appearance of natural hair follicles and restore the look of a fuller, sharper hairline. Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure where specialised pigments are carefully implanted into the scalp to replicate tiny hair follicles. The result is the illusion of density, definition, and a closely shaved natural hair appearance. Whether you are experiencing thinning hair, pattern baldness, alopecia, scar visibility, or post-transplant gaps, SMP offers a realistic and low-maintenance solution tailored to you.

What Can SMP Help With?
Male Pattern Baldness Create the appearance of a fuller head of hair with a natural-looking shaved style and restored hairline. Thinning Hair Add the illusion of density between existing hairs to reduce scalp visibility and make hair appear thicker. Receding Hairlines Redesign and strengthen weakened hairlines while maintaining a soft, realistic finish. Crown Balding Camouflage thinning or bald spots around the crown area with strategically placed pigmentation. Alopecia SMP can help reduce the visibility of patchy hair loss caused by alopecia conditions. Scar Camouflage Minimise the appearance of FUT/FUE hair transplant scars or other scalp scars by blending them into surrounding hair follicles.
Does SMP Fade?
Yes — SMP will gradually soften over time, which is completely normal and expected.
Most clients choose a small colour boost or refresh treatment every 3–5 years depending on:
- Skin type
- Sun exposure
- Lifestyle
- Aftercare
- Immune system and pigment retention
We use high-quality pigments formulated to age naturally within the skin while maintaining a realistic appearance.
Is SMP Painful?
Most clients describe SMP as mild discomfort rather than painful. The sensation is often compared to light scratching. Certain areas of the scalp can be more sensitive, but treatment is generally very well tolerated.
Who Is Suitable For SMP?
SMP is suitable for:
- Men experiencing hair loss or baldness
- Women with thinning hair
- Clients with alopecia
- Post hair transplant clients
- Clients wanting scar camouflage
- Individuals wanting a sharper hairline or fuller appearance
A consultation will always be carried out before treatment to assess suitability and create a personalised treatment plan.
Aftercare
Proper aftercare is essential for the best healed results.
After treatment, clients will receive full aftercare guidance.This includes:
- No washing scalp for 5 days
- 7 day exercise restrictions
- No direct sun exposure for 7 days
Following aftercare correctly helps improve pigment retention and ensures optimal healing.

Maintenance & Colour Boosts
SMP is considered a long-lasting treatment rather than completely permanent. Over time, the pigmentation will gradually soften naturally within the skin.
Most clients choose a refresh session every 2–4 years to maintain optimal sharpness and density. Factors such as skin type, sun exposure, lifestyle, and aftercare can influence longevity.
How do treatments work?
Treatment is completed gradually over a number of sessions rather than in one sitting. Most clients require 2–3 sessions to achieve a natural, realistic result 👌 Each session allows us to carefully control: • pigment saturation • density • hairline refinement • overall balance and softness once healed Sessions are typically spaced 7–14 days apart to allow the skin to heal and the pigment to settle correctly before building the next layer
