Inter-graft density
Planning focuses on visible scalp between established grafts, not on scar camouflage.
SMP after a hair transplant
Scalp micropigmentation after a hair transplant in Athens for suitable, fully healed areas where scalp remains visible between existing grafts.
Private consultation
Our approach
A transplant moves a finite number of follicles, so the scalp between existing grafts may remain visible under direct light. SMP may reduce that visual contrast in suitable cases, once your surgeon confirms the area is fully healed.
Planning focuses on visible scalp between established grafts, not on scar camouflage.
We proceed only after your surgeon confirms the area is fully healed and suitable for cosmetic assessment.
Tell any future surgeon about previous SMP so it can be considered during assessment.
We assess skin condition, existing density, haircut and expectations; if SMP is not appropriate, we will say so.
A transplant redistributes a finite number of follicles from a donor area. Skin between established grafts can therefore remain visible under direct light, with wet hair or in close photographs. An SMP assessment considers this contrast without making claims about changing the transplanted follicles themselves.
We assess the recipient area only after your surgeon confirms that it is fully healed. At that point we consider skin texture, graft distribution and direction, root tone, haircut length and where show-through is most noticeable. We do not prescribe a universal healing timeline in marketing copy.
SMP between grafts does not change hair count, thickness, direction or growth. Its purpose is to reduce the visual contrast of skin between existing follicles. Camouflaging a healed FUE or FUT donor scar is a separate design objective, and any future surgeon should be told about previous SMP during assessment.
We do not mechanically fill every space between grafts. Direction, length and distribution of hair, the pattern visible under different light and its relationship with the hairline are considered together. The plan should remain coherent when hair is dry, moving or photographed from above.
Any previous micropigmentation, correction or removal should be disclosed at assessment. If further transplantation is being considered, surgical planning comes first and the surgeon needs to know about existing pigment. Cosmetic treatment is not presented as a substitute for a medical or surgical decision.
Tone is selected against roots and skin and added conservatively. The healed first stage shows how the shadow integrates between grafts. Only then is further visual density considered, avoiding a heavy surface that could separate visually from the existing hair.
