Hair Density & Thinning Hair SMP — Kent
If your hair is thinning but you're not ready to shave, density SMP is the answer. It adds the appearance of fuller, denser hair between your existing strands — dramatically reducing visible scalp without changing your style. Available at ScalpLiners in Whitstable, Kent.
What Is Density SMP?
Hair density scalp micropigmentation is specifically designed for men and women who are experiencing thinning hair — where the hair is becoming finer, lighter or sparser, making the scalp increasingly visible. Rather than creating the look of a shaved head, density SMP works with the hair you have.
Thousands of micro-dots of pigment are placed precisely between your existing hairs to replicate the appearance of real follicles. The result is a scalp that appears fuller and less visible through the hair, creating the illusion of significantly greater density — without anyone knowing you've had anything done.
This treatment is particularly effective for men experiencing diffuse thinning across the crown and top of the scalp, where hair becomes sparse but a clear shaved-head look isn't desired. It is also the treatment of choice for women with thinning hair — see the dedicated Women's SMP page for more detail.
The Process
Mark assesses the thinning areas, your hair colour and skin tone. He maps out exactly where density is needed and discusses how the result will look. No obligation whatsoever.
The first layer of pigment is applied across the thinning zones. Immediately after the session the scalp looks noticeably denser. The pigment settles and lightens as the skin heals over the following 10–14 days.
Additional depth and density are built up. Mark makes adjustments based on how session one has settled. The difference after session two is often dramatic.
Final refinement and any detailed work needed. The 12-month guarantee begins. Results are lasting and natural-looking under all lighting conditions.
Aftercare: Avoid wetting the scalp for 4 days after each session. Use a gentle, SLS-free shampoo once healed. Apply SPF50 to the scalp daily — this is the most effective way to maintain your result long-term and slow any fading.
