How Scar Camouflage SMP Works
Follicle Replication Over Scar Tissue
Scalp scar camouflage using SMP is one of the most in-demand treatments at ScalpLiners — and one of the most transformative. It works by applying specialist pigments to scar tissue, depositing tiny dots that replicate the appearance of individual hair follicles growing through the scarred skin.
For FUE hair transplant clients, this means the individual extraction dots at the back of the scalp — which can appear as clusters of pale or pinkish circles — become virtually indistinguishable from the surrounding follicles. For FUT strip scar clients, the linear scar at the back of the head is broken up and darkened to match the surrounding scalp.
Scar tissue behaves differently from normal scalp skin — it is often smoother, paler and less receptive to pigment on the first pass. Mark accounts for this with technique adjustments and additional sessions where needed. The 12-month guarantee covers the result regardless of how the scar tissue responds.
