I wish I had found Peter years ago. Having struggled with thinning/fine hair for over 20 years and having had various hair systems during that time, I just wanted to be free of wearing hairpieces, toppers and thickening powders. This has been the ideal solution for me as I can now wear my hair tied up or down, without having to be concerned about my scalp. If you take a look at the before and after's - they really do just say it all.” — Sonia ![Six-panel before-and-after collage showing thinning hair and receded hairline (left) versus shaved, stippled scalp (right)](/_next/image?url=%2Fapi%2Fmedia%2Ffile%2Fbefore-after-scalp-stipple-collage.png%3Fv%3D1768309236332&w=1536&q=75&dpl=dpl_DEc4fGhEc1SCRZZutzoEsRuDy1CJ) ![Top-down view of person with dark hair thinning at front and crown, wearing a black face mask](/_next/image?url=%2Fapi%2Fmedia%2Ffile%2Ftop-down-hair-thinning-mask.png%3Fv%3D1768236271578&w=1536&q=75&dpl=dpl_DEc4fGhEc1SCRZZutzoEsRuDy1CJ)![Close-up left profile of bald man with blue eyes and inset glossy top-of-scalp photo](/_next/image?url=%2Fapi%2Fmedia%2Ffile%2Fbald-profile-with-inset-scalp.png%3Fv%3D1768236273513&w=1536&q=75&dpl=dpl_DEc4fGhEc1SCRZZutzoEsRuDy1CJ) - ![Close-up left profile of bald man with blue eyes and inset glossy top-of-scalp photo](/_next/image?url=%2Fapi%2Fmedia%2Ffile%2Fbald-profile-with-inset-scalp.png%3Fv%3D1768236273513&w=1536&q=75&dpl=dpl_DEc4fGhEc1SCRZZutzoEsRuDy1CJ) ## Scalp Micropigmentation Consultation 30 mins A focused one to one session to assess your hair goals, confirm suitability for SMP or tricopigmentation, and map a plan with maintenance guidance and clear pricing.

A well planned pigment treatment creates the look of fuller hair, sharper hairline definition or a clean shaved finish. It can also soften the appearance of scalp scars. The focus is always a natural, low-shine result that suits your face, age and style. Who is suited to these treatments? They suit men with thinning or receding hair, or anyone who prefers a close cut and wants stronger definition. Many also choose it to blend hair transplant or FUE scarring. Suitability is confirmed in a proper consultation with clear, honest advice. What happens at the consultation and during treatment? We discuss goals, assess the scalp and agree a realistic plan for design and shade. Pigment is applied in measured stages so tone and density build gradually for a natural finish. You will receive straightforward aftercare and a plan for any follow-up visits. How long do results last and what maintenance is involved? Results are long lasting and designed to stay looking natural. A simple refresh may be recommended over time to maintain tone and definition as skin and style change. We keep maintenance low fuss and aligned to your goals. How is pricing set and how do I book? Pricing reflects coverage, design detail and the finish you want, whether subtle density or a clean shaved look. You will receive a clear quote after consultation, with no hard sell. Booking is straightforward and we confirm your plan in writing.
