SMP for Hair Loss & Thinning – The Shaved Head Look
The most common SMP treatment. Pigment is applied across the scalp to replicate the look of a close-shaved head, creating a clean, defined result with a custom-designed hairline.
This treatment works for any level of hair loss — from early thinning to completely bald — and for all skin tones and hair colours. The hairline is designed specifically for your face shape and preference, from natural and soft to sharp and defined.
Three sessions are delivered approximately one week apart, allowing each layer to heal and settle before the next is applied.
✔ Works for all Norwood stages and hair loss patterns
✔ Custom hairline design to suit your face shape
✔ Natural-looking result that is indistinguishable from a shaved head

SMP for Density Enhancement – Keeping & Strengthening Your Hair
If your hair is thinning but you are not ready to shave it down, SMP can add the appearance of density through your existing hair. Pigment dots are placed to blend with natural follicles, making the hair appear thicker and fuller without changing your style.
This treatment suits both men and women experiencing diffuse thinning, and is particularly effective for thinning at the crown, part line or temples where contrast between scalp and hair becomes visible.
✔ No shaving required — works through your existing hair
✔ Effective for men and women with diffuse thinning
✔ Blends seamlessly with your natural follicles

SMP for Hair Transplant Enhancement – Maximising Your Results
SMP pairs exceptionally well with hair transplant results. For clients who have had a transplant and want to improve density in thinner areas, or who have donor scarring they want to conceal, SMP can complete the result that surgery started.
Strip scar (FUT) and dot scar (FUE) camouflage are among the most requested treatments from transplant clients. SMP pigment blended into scar tissue significantly reduces contrast and visibility.
✔ Conceals FUT strip scars and FUE dot scarring
✔ Adds density in areas of post-transplant thinning
✔ Blends with your transplanted and natural hair

SMP for Medical Hair Loss & Scar Camouflage
SMP offers a non-surgical option for clients dealing with alopecia, medical hair loss conditions or scarring from surgery, trauma or injury. The treatment deposits pigment to reduce contrast between affected areas and surrounding skin or hair, creating a more even, natural appearance.
Consultations for medical hair loss and scar camouflage are treated individually. The number of sessions and approach depends on the size, location and nature of the area being treated.
✔ Suitable for alopecia areata, totalis and universalis
✔ Effective on surgical, trauma and transplant scarring
✔ Treated on a case-by-case basis with a personalised plan

What is Scalp MicroPigmentation?
Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is a specialist cosmetic procedure that replicates the appearance of natural hair follicles using precisely placed pigment on the scalp. Depending on your treatment goal, the result looks like a close-shaved head, added density through thinning hair, or seamless coverage over scarring.
SMP uses cosmetic-grade pigments developed specifically for the scalp — not standard tattoo ink. The pigments are formulated to remain true to colour in the skin rather than shifting over time. Treatment is delivered across three sessions, approximately one week apart, followed by a healed result review.
Signature Scalp is led by Michael Kennedy-Andrews, who holds a nationally accredited Diploma of Cosmetic Tattoo and has undergone SMP himself.
