Scalp Micropigmentation Is an Effective Treatment for Localized Alopecia: Technical Analysis and a Series of Ten Case Reports

The study demonstrates that scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is an effective, minimally invasive treatment for localized alopecia, providing significant cosmetic improvement and high patient satisfaction. Involving 10 cases of both androgenetic and scarring alopecia, patients underwent three SMP sessions, resulting in an average visual density score (VDS) of 8.7 immediately post-treatment. Although a slight reduction in VDS was noted at a 6-month follow-up, particularly in scarring alopecia cases, patient satisfaction remained high with a mean score of 2.7 out of 3. The study concludes that SMP offers a rapid and satisfactory cosmetic solution, though further research with larger sample sizes and longer follow-up is recommended to assess long-term efficacy and safety.
