For many people facing bald spots or thinning hair, Scalp Micropigmentation Singapore offers an immediate and natural-looking solution. This cosmetic procedure creates the appearance of hair density through precise pigment application, giving the illusion of fuller coverage without surgery.
In this guide, we’ll explore the science, benefits, process, costs, and why Anagen Scalp’s Scatter and Classic techniques stand out—delivering up to 30% coverage after just one session.
How Scalp Micropigmentation Singapore Covers Bald Spots & Thinning Hair
Scalp Micropigmentation Singapore works by embedding tiny dots of micropigmentation into the upper dermis of the scalp. These dots mimic the size, color, and distribution of natural hair follicles. The effect reduces the contrast between scalp and hair, making thin areas appear denser.
Hair Concern | How SMP Helps |
Bald patches | Pigments replicate follicles, camouflaging exposed scalp. |
Diffuse thinning | Breaks up light reflection, giving the illusion of more hair. |
Scarring (from injury or surgery) | Masks the contrast between scar tissue and surrounding hair. |
Alopecia-related loss | Creates uniform coverage where hair follicles are absent. |
Key Advantage: Unlike topical concealers that wash away, SMP pigments are semi-permanent and resistant to daily washing, sweating, or light exposure.

The Science & Pigment Technology Behind Scalp Micropigmentation Singapore
SMP uses medical-grade pigments that are hypoallergenic and designed to hold their color over time without turning blue or green (a common risk with tattoo inks). Pigment depth is carefully controlled—too deep and it blurs, too shallow and it fades quickly.
Technique precision is critical. Each dot is placed to:
Match natural follicle size (0.8–1.0mm for most clients)
Follow natural hair growth direction
Avoid unnatural patterns or “polka dot” appearance
The History & Evolution of SMP
Early 2000s – First trials used cosmetic tattooing, but ink migration and discoloration limited adoption.
2010s – Dedicated SMP pigments, microneedles, and training standards emerged.
Now – Advanced devices, AI-assisted hairline design, and specialized clinics like Anagen Scalp in Singapore provide refined, long-lasting results.
