Scalp Micropigmentation for Alopecia in South Africa
Non-surgical, immediate cosmetic camouflage for Alopecia Areata, Traction Alopecia, and diffuse hair thinning.
Restoring Confidence for Alopecia Sufferers in South Africa
Alopecia can strike without warning. Scalp Micropigmentation offers an instant, permanent aesthetic solution that restores hair follicle contrast.
Traction Alopecia is particularly common in South Africa due to tight protective styles, braids, and weaves that pull on fragile hair follicles around the temples and forehead. We restore natural edge density without shaving your existing hair.
For Alopecia Areata (smooth circular bald patches), SMP deposits micro-pigment impressions inside the bare areas, seamlessly blending them into your surrounding hair stubble.
For complete Alopecia Totalis or Universalis, full head SMP builds a completely new, age-appropriate hairline and head of shaved hair, giving back your natural face-framing look.
Pricing & Norwood Scale
Alopecia treatments are quoted individually depending on the size and number of patches, or whether full hairline edge restoration is required.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does SMP hurt more on alopecia patches?
No. Scalp sensitivity on alopecia patches is generally very mild, similar to standard SMP.
What if my alopecia patches move or grow?
Because SMP impressions are micro-scale, they blend seamlessly. If new patches appear in the future, we can easily add new impressions in a brief touch-up session.
Can women with traction alopecia get SMP?
Absolutely. A large percentage of our female clients receive SMP specifically for traction alopecia around the edges and temples.
