Many people who do not understand what scalp micropigmentation is refer to it by different names, and one of the most common is hair tattoo. People use this term because the procedure deposits pigment under the skin to create a hair-like effect. Unlike traditional tattooing, the goal is not to produce artwork. Instead, the technique replicates thousands of tiny follicles, also known as microdots.
Although traditional tattooing and this treatment share a few similarities, they differ in many important ways, including the tools, pigments, and depth of application. This procedure does not change color and provides natural, realistic results. Choosing the right artist is the most important part of the process. If you walk into a standard tattoo studio asking for this type of work, you are unlikely to receive true scalp micropigmentation. For that reason, it’s essential to do your research, explore our Gallery, review testimonials, and ensure you trust an experienced SMP specialist.
