Delaware Scalp Micropigmentation
FUE & FUT Hair Transplant Scar Camouflage
Hair-transplant scars can stay visible even when the transplant itself looks good. Scalp micropigmentation can camouflage suitable healed FUE dot scars and FUT linear scars by reducing the contrast between scar tissue and the surrounding scalp.
The goal is not to erase the scar. It is to make it less noticeable by blending pigment through and around the area.
How SMP Scar Camouflage Works
Scar tissue often appears lighter than the surrounding scalp. SMP places tiny impressions in and around the healed scar to visually break up the contrast. Scar tissue can retain pigment differently than normal skin, so treatment is built carefully and may require additional adjustment.
FUE Scar Camouflage
FUE can leave many small circular donor scars. When the hair is worn short, those lighter dots may become visible. SMP can blend the donor area by adding impressions around and, when appropriate, into healed scar tissue.
FUT Linear Scar Camouflage
FUT can leave a linear strip scar across the donor area. SMP can reduce the contrast between that line and the surrounding scalp so the scar is less obvious, especially with shorter haircuts.
Scar Camouflage FAQ
How healed does my scar need to be?
The scar should be fully healed and mature before treatment. Timing varies, so the scar is assessed before SMP is recommended.
Will the scar disappear completely?
No. SMP camouflages contrast; it does not remove scar tissue. The goal is to make the scar much less visually obvious.
