If you are dealing with hair loss issues and are considering doing something to improve the appearance of your hair, you may be confused about which option to choose: hair transplant or Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP).
Scalp Micropigmentation is NOT Hair Transplant! See the difference:
❌ Hair Transplant
-
Invasive surgical procedure: Hair transplant surgery is an invasive procedure that involves making incisions in the scalp and removing healthy hair follicles from the back of the head to be transplanted into the balding area. This process can be very painful.
-
Recovery time: After a hair transplant surgery, the entire head area will have strong scabbing and swelling which will takes several days or weeks to subside . This can be an inconvenience for those with busy schedules or who are not able to take time off work.
-
Complications: As with any surgical procedure, there are higher risks of infections and complications following a hair transplant surgery.
-
Scarring: Incisions made during the hair transplant procedure may leave visible scars on the scalp even with the most modern techniques. For a lot patients, these scars can be quite visible.
-
Cost: Hair transplant surgery can be expensive, especially if multiple sessions are required to achieve the desired results. This can be a financial burden for some people.
-
Unnatural looking results: In some cases, the results of a hair transplant may not look natural, with the transplanted hair appearing too thick or unevenly distributed. This can be disappointing for patients who were expecting more natural-looking results.
-
Not suitable to everyone: While some people can achieve satisfactory results, a large number of patients will not achieve the level of density they desire and end up having a second or even third surgery in following years. Often the transplanted area does not take well the new hair and the donor area is left with a lot of scarring.
-
High risk of poor results: At GiveGoodFace we have many clients who been through one or more hair transplant surgeries and were left with very poor results and unsightly scarring. They end up having Scalp Micropigmentation with us to fix those issues.


Why choose Scalp Micropigmentation


✅ Scalp Micropigmentation
-
Non-invasive: SMP is a non-invasive, non-surgical procedure. It does not involve making incisions or removing tissue. There are no cuts and no bleeding. This makes it a much less risky option than hair transplant surgery.
-
Quick and painless: SMP is typically a quick procedure, with sessions lasting only a few hours. It is also relatively painless, with most people only experiencing mild discomfort during the procedure.
-
Natural-looking results: At GiveGoodFace we specialise in Natural Looking Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) to create the appearance of shaved hair stubble. The final results look natural and seamless.
-
Durable: SMP results are long-lasting, with the pigment generally lasting for several years before start to slowly fade. A quick maintenance session every 2 or 3 years is all you need to keep it always looking fresh.
-
Versatile: Scalp Micropigmentation can be used to cover a wide range of hair loss, from thinning hair to complete baldness. It can also be used to camouflage scarring on the scalp or to add density to thinning areas.
-
Convenient: Scalp Micropigmentation requires no downtime, allowing patients to return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure.
-
Affordable: Scalp Micropigmentation is generally more affordable than hair transplant surgery, making it a more accessible option for many people.
-
Suitable for all skin tones: Scalp Micropigmentation can be performed on all skin tones, making it an ideal option for people of all ethnicities.
-
Immediate results: Unlike Hair transplant or other Hair loss treatments in which it will take more than a year to see any results, with Scalp Micropigmentation you will see your results straight away. No Promises. Only results.
Here are just a few of our clients reviews...

Here's how SMP works:
We create the illusion of hair follicles with micro strokes of ink...
These “ink strokes” or “micro dots” are known as "impressions", which perfectly replicate the appearance of hair follicles and can be used to:
-
Recover and Create a brand new hairline
-
Cover any bald areas on the head
-
Add density to thinning hair
-
Conceal bald patches or scarring on the head
These impressions are layered over 3-4 sessions, creating a natural and undetectable end result.
When the treatment is performed correctly as we do it at GiveGoodFace, nobody will ever be able to tell that the impressions are ink, and not real hair follicles.
