Get the Look of a Fuller Head — Instantly.
What Is Scalp Micro Pigmentation (SMP)?
Scalp Micro Pigmentation is a non-surgical cosmetic tattooing procedure that uses micro-needles to deposit pigment into the scalp, mimicking the appearance of real hair follicles.
It’s ideal for both men and women dealing with thinning hair, bald patches, or receding hairlines — delivering instant visual density and confidence.
At Layers Clinics, SMP is performed by trained dermatologists and certified aesthetic technicians using medical-grade pigments for a natural, lasting finish.
Who Can Benefit from SMP?
Men with Baldness: Ideal for complete or partial scalp coverage.
Women with Thinning Hair: Creates the illusion of fuller volume.
Post-Transplant Patients: Fills gaps and enhances density appearance.
People with Scalp Scars: Conceals scars from injury or transplant surgery.
Anyone Avoiding Surgery: Perfect for those seeking a non-invasive solution.

Types of Scalp Micro Pigmentation Treatments
Hairline Reconstruction SMP
Designed to recreate a natural-looking frontal hairline or temple area for men and women with receding hairlines — blending seamlessly with existing hair.
Density Enhancement SMP
Ideal for people with thinning hair; this technique darkens visible scalp areas between existing hair strands to create the illusion of thicker, denser volume.
Full Scalp Coverage SMP
Provides uniform pigmentation across the entire scalp, replicating the look of a closely shaved head — perfect for advanced baldness (Stage 5–7).
Scar Camouflage SMP
Targets scars from hair transplant surgeries, injuries, or burns by matching pigment tone to the surrounding scalp, making scars virtually invisible.
Female Density SMP
Customised for women experiencing diffuse hair thinning or widened parting; enhances scalp coverage and gives the appearance of fuller, healthier hair.
Combination SMP (Hybrid Technique)
A blend of different SMP methods — often combining density work, hairline design, and scar camouflage for a complete and natural restoration effect.
