What Is Scalp Micropigmentation and How Does It Work?

Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a non-surgical hair loss treatment that creates the appearance of natural hair follicles by placing micro-dots of pigment into the upper layers of the scalp. The goal of SMP is to replicate the look of closely shaved hair or add visual density to thinning hair.

At SMP Vancouver – Hair Tattoo Inc., scalp micropigmentation is performed in Vancouver, BC using specialized pigments, needles, and techniques designed specifically for the scalp. Unlike traditional tattoos, SMP is applied at a much shallower depth and is customized to match the client’s natural hair color, skin tone, and hair loss pattern.

SMP works by reducing the contrast between the scalp and hair, making hair appear fuller or giving the appearance of a clean, natural buzz-cut look. Treatments are typically completed over multiple sessions to build layers gradually and ensure long-term, natural-looking results.

For people experiencing hair loss, scalp micropigmentation can be used in different ways depending on the situation. Many clients with thinning hair choose SMP to add visual density, which is explained in more detail in our guide on where to find thinning hair SMP treatments in Vancouver.
