Scalp micropigmentation
What is SMP?
Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) in Estonia
Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) in Estonia is a natural and effective solution for hair thinning and baldness. It is a scalp micropigmentation or trichopigmentation, which aims to visually restore hair density and hairline.
The goal of the procedure is to mimic a person's existing "hair spots" as closely as possible. The pigment is inserted into the superficial dermis of the skin using a dermograph and special needles.
You can see the work done. from the gallery or from social media!
How long does SMP take?
SMP usually consists of 3-4 sessions, which are carried out over a period of approximately 1-2 months.
For shaved head: There is a 7-10 day gap between the first and second sessions, and about a month between subsequent sessions. For larger jobs (alopecia), sessions can be spread over several days.
Hair gap filling: 3-4 weeks between sessions.
The duration of the session depends largely on the extent of baldness and skin type (on average 3-4 hours). For long hair, the session duration is longer.

How long does SMP last?
Long-lasting and natural result
Scalp micropigmentation is a permanent procedure. However, depending on the individual, a touch-up (usually only 1 session) should be performed every 2-5 years to refresh the results.
What to know before and after the SMP procedure?
BEFORE THE SESSION
- Since sessions can be long, sitting in one place and poking around is more enjoyable when you're well rested. It's also easier on the person doing the work than moving around less.
- Avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements (omega 3).
- Wash your hair/head beforehand.
- Shave your hair as short as possible (to 0) the night before the session or the morning of the session. Except in cases of thinning hair.
- If you have a dry scalp, you may want to use moisturizing creams or masks for a while before the session.
- NB! The scalp must be healthy to perform the work. Avoid excessive sun exposure (headwear, SPF), work cannot be performed if you have a sunburn.
- For skin diseases located on the scalp, a course of treatment should be completed before the SMP procedure.
