What is Alopecia?
Hair loss conditions like alopecia can occur on the scalp due to genetics, immune system problems, or certain drugs. Dermatologists have the expertise to diagnose this condition. The most frequently diagnosed form is alopecia areata, which usually creates bald areas on the scalp. You might become more conscious of your appearance because of this.
The good thing is that effective treatments are accessible. We at Scalp Evolution provide Scalp Micropigmentation, which mimics the appearance of a shaved or buzzed head.
Symptoms of Alopecia
Common indicators of alopecia include:
- Sudden hair loss
- Patchy bald spots
- Thinning hair
- Hair loss on the entire body
- Changes in nail texture
How SMP Can Help
This revolutionary treatment, SMP, is ideal for those managing alopecia. This procedure uses tailored pigments on the scalp to simulate the appearance of hair follicles. This method is particularly beneficial for alopecia areata, as it hides bald patches and gives the look of thicker hair with a buzzed or shaved appearance. SMP is a non-invasive option that involves minimal recovery time and delivers immediate results, improving your confidence and self-esteem.

The positive effects of SMP include:
- Involves no surgery and is minimally intrusive.
- You’ll see instant results, with no recovery time needed.
- A lifelike effect that mimics the look of hair follicles.
- Ideal for all hair colors and skin types.
- Increases confidence while elevating self-image.

Is SMP effective for women with alopecia?
SMP is an effective solution for women suffering from alopecia areata or various types of hair loss.

The treatment is personalized to blend with your natural hair and skin color.
What can I expect in terms of hair growth after SMP?

How long does the SMP procedure take?
The duration of the SMP process is influenced by the amount of hair loss and the size of the area being treated.

Each session is held a few weeks apart to allow the scalp to heal and the pigment to settle.
