Scalp Micropigmentation
What do these men have in common? A look that proves that hair (or the illusion of it) isn’t about volume. It’s about confidence, precision, and style.
That’s exactly where micropigmentation hair steals the spotlight. Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) has become one of the most sought-after hair restoration treatments, offering a realistic, non-surgical way to restore the appearance of hair.

Scalp micropigmentation is sometimes referred to as a “scalp tattoo”. This is because the hair loss recovery procedure involves the use of a tattoo technique in which small dots of permanent ink are injected into the skin. The seamless, natural finish is the result of the illusion that the small dots create, hence, why the scalp micropigmentation procedure is perfect for those who have limited hair transplant donors or simply desire to replace any baldness with a natural, shaved look.
Here at Physicians Hair Restoration Houston, Dr. Puig performs the SMP procedure using only the most state-of-the-art equipment and skill unparalleled by any other hair transplant physician in Houston. When you come to PHRC, you are guaranteed a seamless process leading up to the scalp micropigmentation procedure and when it’s over, results that will have your confidence soaring.
What is Scalp Micropigmentation?
Scalp pigmentation is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses specialized micro-needles to deposit pigment into the scalp. These tiny pigment impressions are carefully layered to replicate the look of natural hair follicles, creating the illusion of fuller hair, or a closely-shaved hairstyle.
Unlike traditional hair restoration procedures, micropigmentation hair treatments don’t involve incisions, transplants, or medications. Instead, SMP relies on precision, artistry, and medical-grade pigments to deliver consistent and realistic results. The treatment is versatile, reliable, and suitable for individuals experiencing thinning hair, receding hairlines, bald patches, or complete hair loss.
