WHAT IS SMP? HAIRLOSS SOLUTION.
Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a life-changing hair loss treatment in North Wales where natural pigments are applied to the scalp to replicate the appearance of real hair follicles. This advanced SMP treatment creates the look of a full head of closely shaved hair or adds density and volume to thinning hair and balding areas.
At Studio58 in Llanbedr, North Wales, we specialise exclusively in Scalp Micropigmentation. All treatments are carried out by experienced SMP practitioner Sophie Collins, who focuses solely on delivering precise, natural-looking results. We do not offer medication, laser treatments, or hair transplants—allowing us to concentrate entirely on high-quality SMP.
Studio58 provides professional Scalp Micropigmentation services in North Wales, helping clients regain confidence with a safe, non-surgical solution for hair loss. Our goal is to ensure every client looks great, feels confident, and leaves our Llanbedr studio with results they can trust.
A Non-Surgical Solution for
Fuller-Looking Hair
Scar Camouflage and Alopecia Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a non-invasive, low-maintenance hair loss solution designed to create the illusion of natural hair follicles and a realistic hairline.
The procedure uses a specialist micro-needle to carefully deposit organic pigment into the upper layer of the scalp. This technique replicates the appearance of real hair follicles, restoring density to thinning or balding areas, or creating the look of a clean, closely shaved head with a defined, natural-looking hairline.
​
Scalp Micropigmentation is highly effective for scar camouflage, including FUT and FUE hair transplant scars, head injury scars, and other scalp scar tissue. SMP is also widely used to treat thinning hair, pattern baldness, and alopecia in both men and women. As hair loss is often permanent—where hair follicles are no longer able to produce hair—SMP offers a reliable cosmetic solution without ongoing maintenance.
​
Many traditional hair loss treatments can be costly, time-consuming, and require daily commitment, with results that are not always guaranteed. Hair transplant procedures, in particular, can leave visible scarring at the donor site, creating additional concerns for some clients.
​
One of the most effective and popular hair loss solutions to emerge in recent years, Scalp Micropigmentation does not regrow hair, but instead creates a highly realistic illusion of shaved hair growth. By precisely placing thousands of pigment impressions into the scalp, SMP restores the appearance of a full hairline—helping to rebuild confidence and self-esteem.
how it works
Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is completed over three separate appointments, carefully designed to build a natural-looking, realistic result. A custom hairline is pre-drawn, and density is gradually built across the scalp for a seamless finish.
​
During your first appointment, the hairline is carefully mapped out and approved by you. A bespoke pigment shade is then selected based on your skin tone, hair colour, and age. The initial session focuses on creating a primary layer of follicle impressions to form the foundation of your SMP treatment.
​
The second and third appointments, spaced 7–14 days apart, add further impressions between the previous ones to increase density and depth. This layering technique tightens the overall look, creating the appearance of a full head of closely shaved hair.
​
A complimentary fourth session is included within three months to ensure you are completely happy with your results. Scalp Micropigmentation provides a highly realistic, low-maintenance solution for hair loss while significantly reducing the shiny appearance of the scalp.
​
SMP requires healing time between each session to allow the pigment to settle correctly. The treatment is long-lasting, though natural fading can occur over time due to sun exposure and environmental factors. For this reason, occasional top-up sessions are recommended to keep results looking fresh.
​
There is zero risk of scarring, and any existing scalp scars can be effectively camouflaged as part of the treatment.
