Scalp Micropigmentation in Seattle & Portland

Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a sophisticated medical tattoo process that creates natural looking simulation of micro hairs. This incredibly detailed scalp application is administered to the head typically in 2-3 sessions performed over the course of a few weeks creating what many are now calling the modern solution for hair loss.

For sufferers of regular hair loss or alopecia, SMP offers an effective cosmetic hair loss solution. Competent application of the SMP technique results in the appearance of a cropped hairstyle, regardless of your hair loss situation. Even clients who are completely bald can have an undetectable, natural-looking hairline again.

This incredible cosmetic treatment is perfect for both men and women who are experiencing some kind of hair loss and can also be used to cover scars from head trauma or hair transplant surgery.

Despite many advances in recent years, scalp micropigmentation remains the world’s only remedy for hair loss with 100% guaranteed, instantaneous, permanent results.

Depending upon the amount of hair loss each treatment will take 2-4 hours. 2-4 hour sessions are necessary and are scheduled a week apart.

Expertly applied impressions give the look of real hair stubble. Even up close and personal quality scalp micropigmentation is undetectable.
