What is Alopecia?
Scalp hair loss, or alopecia, might result from genetic factors, immune problems, or particular medications. Dermatologists are skilled in diagnosing this type of condition. Alopecia areata, the most recognized form, commonly results in bald areas on the scalp. You may feel uneasy about your appearance as a consequence.
Thankfully, there are ways to treat the condition. Scalp Evolution provides expert SMP treatments to deliver the appearance of a closely cropped or shaved head.
Symptoms of Alopecia
Alopecia is often characterized by symptoms such as:
- Sudden hair loss
- Patchy bald spots
- Thinning hair
- Hair loss on the entire body
- Changes in nail texture
How SMP Can Help
SMP is a state-of-the-art option for individuals experiencing alopecia. SMP involves the use of unique pigments on the scalp to mimic the natural appearance of hair follicles. This procedure is especially effective for alopecia areata, as it hides bald spots and provides a fuller look with a buzzed or shaved appearance. SMP is a quick, non-invasive treatment with little downtime and instant results, enhancing both your confidence and self-image.
Benefits of SMP
SMP offers a range of benefits, including:
- Non-surgical with minimal invasiveness.
- You can enjoy immediate results with no downtime.
- A genuine look that copies hair follicles.
- Works effectively on any skin type or hair color.
- Supports improved self-esteem and personal image.
What To Expect During Your Appointment in Warrington, UK
Your first consultation with a Scalp Evolution SMP Specialist will involve a thorough scalp evaluation and a conversation about your hair loss background and goals. They will detail the SMP process, inform you of what to expect, and ensure it’s tailored to your needs.
Your SMP specialist will prepare and clean your scalp on the day of your treatment. They will apply pigments precisely to give the effect of natural hair follicles. This process generally takes a few hours, varying with the scope of bald spots and hair loss. While there may be mild discomfort, it is typically manageable for most individuals.
Your scalp might appear slightly red after the procedure, though it usually clears up in a few days.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does SMP compare to other treatment options for alopecia?
SMP is a non-surgical treatment that offers instant results for alopecia. SMP provides a natural, hair follicle-like appearance without the need for downtime, unlike some medications or hair transplants. It’s a highly effective option for both men and women with different hair loss issues.
Is SMP effective for women with alopecia?
Yes, SMP offers high effectiveness for women experiencing alopecia areata or other hair loss conditions. It helps create the appearance of fuller hair (shaved or buzzed) and hides bald spots, improving your confidence and self-esteem. The procedure is designed to fit with your natural hair and skin color.
What can I expect in terms of hair growth after SMP?
SMP doesn’t trigger hair growth, but it mimics natural hair follicles, giving the illusion of a fuller head of hair. This treatment is excellent for thinning hair, delivering instant, long-lasting results without the need for surgical procedures.
How long does the SMP procedure take?
The duration of the SMP treatment varies based on your hair loss and the size of the area that needs to be treated. The procedure usually takes several hours, with most patients requiring 2 to 3 sessions for the best results. Each session occurs a few weeks apart to provide time for healing and for the pigment to settle.
Are there any side effects associated with SMP?
Since SMP is minimally invasive, the side effects are generally very few. Redness, mild swelling, or slight discomfort on the scalp can occur in some patients immediately after the treatment. The effects are brief and generally diminish within a few days. Our team will supply you with comprehensive aftercare instructions to help with healing and achieve the best results.
