What is Alopecia?
Hair loss on the scalp, called alopecia, may stem from genetic predispositions, immune system issues, or medication use. A dermatologist is equipped to diagnose you with the condition. Alopecia areata is the most prevalent form and is characterized by bald patches on the scalp, which may impact your confidence.
The promising news is that treatment can help. Scalp Evolution’s SMP treatments are designed to give you the appearance of a shaved or buzzed hairstyle.
Symptoms of Alopecia
Possible signs of alopecia may involve:
- Sudden hair loss
- Patchy bald spots
- Thinning hair
- Hair loss on the entire body
- Changes in nail texture
How SMP Can Help
SMP offers an innovative and effective way to address alopecia. In SMP, specialized pigments are applied to the scalp to create the illusion of natural hair follicles. For alopecia areata, this procedure is ideal for covering bald patches and providing a fuller hair appearance with a shaved or buzzed look. SMP is a non-invasive procedure with minimal recovery time and immediate effects, designed to boost your self-esteem and confidence.
Benefits of SMP
SMP has a number of advantages, including:
- Non-invasive with minimal impact on the body.
- Immediate effects with no pause needed.
- A realistic outcome that imitates hair follicles.
- Well-suited for any skin type and hair color.
- Helps improve confidence and self-assurance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does SMP compare to other treatment options for alopecia?
SMP is a non-surgical solution for alopecia that offers quick results. Unlike some medications or hair transplant procedures, SMP offers no downtime and provides a natural look that mimics hair follicles. This makes it an effective solution for both men and women dealing with different forms of hair thinning.
Is SMP effective for women with alopecia?
Yes, SMP is a powerful treatment for women dealing with alopecia areata or other types of hair loss. It offers a fuller hair look (shaved or buzzed) and covers bald spots, enhancing your confidence and how you view yourself. The procedure is made to match your natural skin tone and hair color.
What can I expect in terms of hair growth after SMP?
SMP doesn’t cause new hair to grow, but it creates the look of fuller hair by mimicking the appearance of natural hair follicles. This treatment is great for thinning hair, offering fast and lasting results without the need for hair transplant surgery.
How long does the SMP procedure take?
The duration of the SMP session depends on the size of the area being treated and the severity of your hair loss. Generally, the procedure lasts a few hours, and 2 to 3 sessions are necessary for the best results. The time between each session is a few weeks, allowing the scalp to heal and the pigment to settle.
Are there any side effects associated with SMP?
Since SMP is minimally invasive, it causes very few side effects. Some patients could experience redness, mild swelling, or slight discomfort on their scalp after the procedure. The effects are brief and generally subside after a few days. Our team will provide you with detailed aftercare guidelines to ensure proper healing and optimal results.
