A Solution for All Types of Alopecia

Alopecia causes hair loss in patches or completely across the scalp, and in its more advanced forms, across the entire body. Unlike genetic hair loss, alopecia is autoimmune in nature — the immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles. This makes it particularly difficult to treat medically, and many people live with the visible effects long-term.

Scalp micropigmentation works differently. Rather than trying to stimulate hair regrowth, SMP works with what is visible on the scalp surface — covering bald patches, evening out the overall appearance and creating the look of a full, natural shaved head or added density depending on the extent of the condition.

For alopecia areata (patchy loss), SMP can be applied specifically to the affected patches, blending them seamlessly with the surrounding areas where hair remains. For alopecia totalis or universalis (complete loss), a full scalp treatment creates a consistent, natural shaved-head appearance across the entire scalp.

  • Covers bald patches completely — areata, totalis, universalis
  • Creates natural shaved-head appearance for complete loss
  • Adds density around patches where hair remains
  • Suitable for men and women of all ages
  • 3 sessions included — 12-month guarantee
  • Immediate, visible results from session one

Which Type of Alopecia Do You Have?

Alopecia Areata

Patchy hair loss presenting as round or oval bald spots on the scalp. SMP covers the patches by replicating follicle density across the affected areas, blending them with surrounding hair. No shaving required if hair remains elsewhere.

Alopecia Totalis

Complete loss of all scalp hair. SMP creates a natural, uniform shaved-head appearance across the entire scalp. The result gives complete coverage and can be transformative for those who have lost all scalp hair.

Alopecia Universalis

Complete loss of all body and scalp hair. SMP addresses the scalp specifically, creating the natural appearance of a closely shaved head. Consistent, lasting results — particularly striking on smoother scalp skin.

Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia

A form of scarring alopecia causing recession of the frontal hairline and eyebrows. SMP can restore the appearance of the frontal hairline. Suitable candidates are assessed individually at the free consultation.

Alopecia SMP — FAQs

Can SMP completely cover alopecia patches?
Yes — SMP is one of the most effective solutions for covering alopecia patches. The pigment is applied across the affected area to replicate the density of surrounding hair follicles. Treated patches become virtually undetectable. For complete scalp hair loss, a full treatment creates a consistent, natural shaved-head look.
What if my alopecia is unpredictable and patches move?
This is an important consideration for alopecia clients. Mark discusses this at the consultation and designs the treatment taking the unpredictable nature of alopecia into account. If hair regrows in treated areas or new patches appear, a top-up session can be arranged to adapt the coverage. The 12-month guarantee covers changes in the first year.
Will SMP work if my alopecia is currently active?
It is generally preferable for alopecia to be in a stable or inactive phase before treatment, as actively changing patches can affect the planning of the treatment. However, this is assessed individually — some clients choose to proceed even with active alopecia for significant quality-of-life reasons. Mark will give honest advice at the consultation.
Does SMP work on smooth, hairless scalp skin?
Yes — SMP can work on completely bald scalp skin. In fact, results on completely smooth scalp skin can be particularly striking and uniform. The absence of existing hair makes the follicle replication effect very clean and consistent. Clients with alopecia totalis frequently get excellent results.
Is SMP a suitable treatment for women with alopecia?
Yes. ScalpLiners treats both men and women with alopecia. For women with patchy alopecia and remaining hair, the treatment adds density to affected areas without shaving. For women with extensive or total loss, a shaved-head or closely cropped approach is discussed. Everything is personalised to your situation and your comfort level.
