Scalp micropigmentation after a hair transplant

A hair transplant can leave the back of the head thin and uneven. SMP can help that area look fuller and more even again.

Lots of people have a hair transplant, but plenty of them run into a real problem afterwards: the back of the head thins out because too many grafts were taken from it, and the hair ends up looking uneven.

At Number 1 Barber we use an up-to-date scalp micropigmentation (SMP) technique to help thin areas look natural, fuller and even.

What is scalp micropigmentation?

SMP is a shallow cosmetic tattoo done with a dedicated machine. It places tiny dots that look like hair follicles on the skin, so thin or bare areas look fuller.

Who it's for
