WHAT IS
SCALP PIGMENTATION?
Scalp Pigmentation, also known as Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP), is a non-medical treatment that uses specialised pigmentation techniques to create the appearance of natural hair follicles on the scalp.
Designed for men experiencing thinning hair, receding hairlines, crown thinning or visible scalp, SMP helps reduce the visual contrast between the hair and scalp for a fuller, more defined appearance.
CROWN SCALP PIGMENTATION
Designed for men experiencing crown thinning or visible scalp at the top and back of the head. Scalp Pigmentation creates the appearance of natural hair follicles between existing hair, helping reduce scalp contrast and create the look of fuller hair density.
HAIRLINE SCALP PIGMENTATION
Designed for men with a receding, thinning or uneven hairline. Scalp Pigmentation recreates the appearance of natural hair follicles to add visual definition and help create a fuller-looking, balanced hairline that complements your existing hair.
BEARD & SIDEBURN PIGMENTATION
Enhance sparse areas, define the beard line and create a natural transition between the sideburns and facial hair.

Frequently asked questions
1. WHAT IS SCALP PIGMENTATION (SMP)?
Scalp Pigmentation, also known as Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP), is a non-medical treatment that uses specialised pigments and fine needles to create the appearance of natural hair follicles on the scalp.
2. WHO IS SCALP PIGMENTATION SUITABLE FOR?
It may be suitable for men with thinning hair, receding hairlines, crown thinning, visible scalp or those who want to create the appearance of a closely shaved hairstyle.
3. WILL SCALP PIGMENTATION LOOK NATURAL?
The treatment is designed to blend with your existing hair colour, density and natural growth pattern. The pigment is gradually layered to create a soft and natural-looking result rather than a solid or painted appearance.
4. HOW MANY SESSIONS WILL I NEED?
Most clients require 2–3 sessions. The first session establishes the foundation, while following sessions build density, refine the colour and improve the overall blend. The exact number depends on your scalp condition and treatment area.
5. CAN SMP WORK IF I STILL HAVE HAIR?
Yes. Scalp Pigmentation can be performed between existing hair to reduce the contrast between the scalp and hair, creating the appearance of greater density. It can be particularly suitable for crown thinning and diffuse thinning.
6. CAN SMP HELP WITH A RECEDING HAIRLINE?
Yes. For suitable clients, a new hairline can be carefully designed according to your facial proportions, existing hair and preferred style before pigmentation begins.
7. HOW LONG DOES SCALP PIGMENTATION LAST?
Scalp Pigmentation is semi-permanent and gradually fades over time. Longevity varies depending on skin type, lifestyle, sun exposure, aftercare and individual pigment retention. Maintenance sessions can be performed when needed.
8. IS SCALP PIGMENTATION PAINFUL?
Discomfort varies from person to person, but the treatment is generally manageable. Sensitivity can also vary depending on the area of the scalp being treated.
9. IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME AFTER SMP?
Downtime is generally minimal, although temporary redness or sensitivity may occur after treatment. Detailed aftercare instructions will be provided to support proper healing and pigment retention
10. HOW DO I KNOW WHICH SMP TREATMENT I NEED?
Every scalp is different. FYRS will assess your existing hair, thinning pattern, scalp condition and desired result before recommending the appropriate treatment area and number of sessions.
