One cosmetic procedure called scalp micropigmentation (SMP) gives the appearance of thicker, fuller hair. A practitioner imitates the look of shaven hair follicles by injecting microscopic spots of pigment into the scalp using specialised needles. Those with scalp scars, thinning hair, or hair loss can especially benefit from SMP. SMP is a non-surgical, low-maintenance alternative that can yield results that resemble hair transplants. Building up the required density usually takes several sessions of the treatment, and the results might persist for several years before touch-ups are needed. SMP can be a game-changing option for people looking to improve the look of their hair when done by a qualified and competent practitioner.
