SMP delivers exceptional versatility for men at any stage of hair loss. For those who embrace the bold, clean-shaven look, SMP creates the appearance of a natural, defined hairline on a completely bald scalp, giving you that perfectly groomed edge. Additionally, SMP can be strategically combined with medical and surgical hair restoration treatments to maximize and augment your results—creating seamless density and definition that elevates any hair restoration procedure. This advanced integration is Sandra Salgado’s specialty, as she one of very few SMP artists with direct experience performing hair restoration procedures, giving her an unmatched understanding of how to optimize every technique for maximum masculine impact.
Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is a cutting-edge, non-surgical solution that gives you back your sharp, defined look through the precise application of specialized pigments to the scalp. Using advanced micro-needling technology, thousands of tiny pigment deposits are strategically placed into the upper layers of your scalp, replicating the appearance of a closely-shaved head with natural hair follicles. This powerful technique creates the illusion of fuller, denser coverage exactly where you need it. The procedure works by masterfully placing these micro-impressions to eliminate the contrast of thinning areas, restore your commanding hairline, and add visual strength to sparse regions—giving you back that clean, masculine edge that demands respect.
