Can SMP on men with short hair look natural and effective? (Photo)

We have definitely found SMP to be a useful adjunct in cases where the appearance of additional density is desired in the crown and other areas of the scalp in both men and women.  We also utilize SMP in areas where the tiny dot scars from FUE are visible.

Hello, and than you for your question.
SMP, or scalp micropigmentation, is a painless procedure that uses highly specialized equipment and unique techniques to carefully and expertly inject all-natural, color-tailored pigments into the scalp creating a completely natural look of the patient’s hairline. A typical procedure involves an initial consultation and two pigmentation sessions to achieve the desired results. You can wash your head the fourth day after the treatment and, during that time, avoid any strenuous activity that will prompt undesired sweating. Once the procedure is complete, the results of a Scalp Micropigmentation treatment can last up to five years.
To answer your question, yes, SMP can add density to men's hairlines.

Scalp MicroPigmentation or SMP is basically a tattoo.  It may look great for thinning hair but for men with genetic balding, it may not look good if you end up with no hair in the thinning area.

Hello and thank you for your question. Yes absolutely SMP can and will make a thinning area look better provided you have some natural hair present. I wish you the best.Dr. T

This can work for men and women as long as there is enough hair in the area already. The pigment needs to blend with the existing hair to block the skin complexion between the hairs. This adds to the look of fullness. if there is not enough hair density it will look fake. 

Hello MisterpeteScalp Micro-Pigmentation will definitely help by reducing the contrast between your hair and your scalp giving your hair a more dense look. However, it requires an expert to be able to select and blend the ink. Make sure that you research well the person who will do your treatment to make sure they have experience and do a good job.Best of Lucks!

SMP can absolutely be used to to help increase look of density in men.  It would be advised to reach out to a specialist and have an in person consultation to evaluate your case specifically.  You may even have a sample patch done so you can see what it might look like and feel like before having the full treatment, if you prefer.  Good luck!

Yes, SMP can make an area of thinning look better but there must be hair present to make it work well
