What is a Scalp Micropigmentation?
Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is a cosmetic tattoo technique that deposits tiny dots of pigment on the scalp to mimic the look of closely shaved hair follicles. It creates the appearance of a fuller head of hair or a defined hairline and is used for thinning hair, pattern baldness, scars, and to add density alongside a transplant.
SMP is done over 2 to 4 sessions spaced a couple of weeks apart, each lasting a few hours, to build natural-looking density. Results are long-lasting — typically several years — with occasional touch-ups as pigment softens.
Pricing depends heavily on the size of the area, from a small hairline to a full bald scalp. It is a tattoo, so choose a licensed, experienced artist.

Frequently asked questions
How much does scalp micropigmentation cost in San Francisco?
Scalp micropigmentation in San Francisco typically costs $2,100 to $4,900 for the full session series. Price scales with the size of the area, from a small hairline to a full bald scalp.
How long does scalp micropigmentation last?
SMP typically lasts several years before the pigment softens. Most people get an occasional touch-up to refresh the density and color. It is more durable than treatments that depend on actual hair regrowth.
Does SMP look natural?
When done by a skilled artist with the right pigment and dot pattern, SMP closely mimics the look of a shaved hairline or added density. Reviewing healed before-and-after photos of clients with similar skin and hair is the best way to judge an artist.
Is SMP a substitute for a hair transplant?
SMP creates the look of fuller hair or a shaved style but does not add real hair. Some people choose it instead of a transplant; others combine the two — SMP adds the appearance of density between transplanted follicles.
