SMP for a receding hairline: what to know first
A receding hairline is the most common reason men ask me about scalp micropigmentation. The hairline design matters more than anything else.
What SMP can do for a hairline
Scalp micropigmentation places tiny dots of pigment in the scalp to look like closely shaved hair. It can create the look of a defined hairline and fill in the look of thinner areas at the temples and crown. It does not grow hair, and it suits people who are happy wearing their hair very short or shaved.
A hairline that fits your face and age
A hairline that is too low or too straight can look unnatural, especially as you get older. A good design follows your face shape and a softer, slightly irregular edge. We draw it together before any pigment goes in, and you approve it in the mirror.
Real results and real moments
If you are still losing hair
Hair loss often continues over time. Talk to your doctor about the cause and any medical options; SMP does not treat hair loss. A design that allows for future change usually ages better. Read SMP for thinning hair and SMP vs a hair transplant.
Sessions and upkeep
SMP is usually built over more than one session so density and colour can be adjusted. Fading over the years is normal, and touch-ups are planned. Aftercare is in the SMP aftercare guide.
