Scalp micropigmentation in Palm Springs
A non-surgical hair loss solution that uses specialized pigment to replicate the look of natural hair follicles, for a fuller hairline and added density.
What scalp micropigmentation is
SMP places thousands of tiny pigment impressions in the scalp. Each one is sized and shaded to look like a natural hair follicle, so together they read as a closely cropped head of hair or a fuller, denser look.
Technicians use various pigment shades to create a realistic result that fills in gaps and suits each client's individual style.
- Non-surgical. No incisions, no grafts and little to no downtime.
- Designed around you. Hairline shape, density and shade are planned for your face and age.
- Visible from the first session. Density is then layered gradually for a natural finish.
Who SMP can help
Hair loss looks different for everyone. SMP is planned around your pattern, how you like to wear your hair and the look you want.
Receding hairline
Rebuild a crisp, age-appropriate front line that suits your face.
Thinning crown
Add visual density so the scalp shows through less on top.
Full shaved look
A clean, closely cropped look with a defined hairline.
Patchy areas
Blend uneven or patchy spots into the surrounding hair.
Hair density treatment
You don't need to shave your head for SMP to help. Custom-blended pigments and specialized techniques add visual thickness to thinning spots, working between the hairs you already have.
The result is non-surgical and looks completely real, so you can keep your length and feel like yourself again.
- For thinning hair you want to keep longer
- Pigment matched to your natural hair color
- Placed between existing hairs for a fuller look

What is scalp micropigmentation?
SMP is a non-surgical hair loss solution that uses specialized pigment to replicate the look of natural hair follicles, creating the appearance of a fuller hairline and added density.
Do I have to shave my head?
No. A full SMP treatment suits a closely cropped look, while the hair density treatment works between longer hairs you already have. Nikki will recommend the right approach at your consultation.
Will it look natural?
That is the goal of every session. Pigment is matched to your hair color and the hairline is designed around your face, age and style.
How many sessions will I need?
Density is built gradually across sessions. The number depends on your hair loss and the look you want, and Nikki will map it out with you at your free consultation.
Can SMP cover hair transplant scars?
Yes. See our scar camouflage page for how it works. Scars need to be at least one year old.
