SMP for Alopecia

Scalp Micropigmentation for Alopecia Types

Based on examination, SMP can be adapted to different alopecia patterns:

• In patchy alopecia areata, pigment placement can make gaps less noticeable.
• For scarring alopecia, colour matching reduces contrast between scar tissue and surrounding hair-bearing skin.
• In complete hair loss such as alopecia totalis or universalis, SMP can replicate a uniform shaved-head appearance.
• When hair loss follows prolonged hair tension in traction alopecia, SMP can visually restore hair density.

Each treatment plan considers scalp health, pigment tone, and patient goals. Before and after visuals are shared only with consent and secure handling of patient data.

Procedure and Combination Planning

SMP uses fine needles to deposit medical-grade pigment matched to hair and skin tone. Sessions are spaced to allow healing and pigment settling. Combining SMP with regenerative therapies such as Advanced Cell + PRP Hair Restoration or growth factor concentrate may support scalp health over time. Integration with hair transplantation, low-level laser therapy, or dermapen microneedling is considered in personalised treatment planning.

Clinic protocols cover pigment selection, depth control, and hygiene standards to reduce risk. Aftercare includes avoiding direct sunlight and friction on the treated scalp for the recommended period.

Why Choose a Dermatology-led SMP Service

Opting for SMP in a doctor-led clinic ensures underlying scalp conditions are screened before treatment. Dr. Alok Kumar Sahoo reviews patient history, medications, and possible contraindications to decide if SMP is appropriate. This approach supports long-term planning that factors in hair loss progression and potential combination therapies.

Patients receive clear details on expected session count, maintenance intervals, and realistic cosmetic outcomes. Consultations and procedures are privacy-focused, with secure record keeping. Booking can be done online or by phone, with flexible hours to accommodate patients travelling from other cities.
