About our clinic
My Transformation Hair Loss Clinic
My Transformation is owned and managed by Michael Pickering — Perth's leading Scalp Micropigmentation practitioner. Based at our Ballajura studio, Michael is dedicated to transforming men's and women's lives by treating hair loss and hair density issues.
At our studio, we know the importance of a genuine one-on-one consultation. We see and evaluate your hair loss in person, discuss your goals, and walk you through exactly what you can expect — before you make any decision. The consultation is as much for your benefit as it is ours.
"I look forward to personally meeting you and giving you the very best free, independent advice — and ultimately helping you with your decision to improve your hair loss situation."

How the magic happens
Michael's Story — Personal & Powerful
Understanding hair loss from a personal perspective is what makes Michael different to every other SMP artist in Perth.
From Client to Perth's Leading SMP Artist
Michael has been bald since the age of 35. After years of dealing with hair loss himself, he received SMP treatment and found it such a life-changing solution that he decided to train in Scalp Micropigmentation to help change other people's lives too.
He trained in Australia with 3 different SMP artists and received a professional certificate of completion from each — including a master class. He has since trained with a 4th artist to expand his skills further.
Understanding firsthand how deeply hair loss affects your confidence and daily life gives Michael a unique empathy for every client who walks through the door. He doesn't just perform a procedure — he genuinely connects with each person's situation.
Michael has also travelled to Brazil to train with Renato Muramatsu, one of the world's leading SMP practitioners — bringing new advanced techniques back to Perth clients that are unavailable almost anywhere else in Australia.
With increasing hair loss amongst both men and women, SMP is a sophisticated method to gain a new form of confidence and a more youthful appearance. Michael understands this better than most — because he's lived it.
Advanced techniques
Techniques You Won't Find Anywhere Else in Australia
After training with world-leading SMP artists, Michael brought back two advanced techniques to Perth that take results to a completely new level.
Pointillism SMP
Trained directly under Brazilian master Renato Muramatsu, Michael's Pointillism technique allows significantly more density to be added in a single session — delivering a much quicker, more natural result than standard SMP. Fewer sessions, better outcome.
3D Thread-by-Thread Hair Technique
The new thread-by-thread hair layer technique allows clients to keep their hair slightly longer instead of shaving to zero. This creates a genuine 3D layered effect that is virtually indistinguishable from real hair — and as far as Michael knows, he is the only practitioner trained in this technique in all of Australia.
The Barber Fade
Michael's signature approach fades from the sides up to a darker top — replicating the exact look you'd get fresh from the barbers. This detail is what separates a good SMP result from a great one, and it's what clients come from across Perth to experience.
Professional grade equipment
We Use the Best Equipment Available
The quality of your result depends on the quality of the tools. Michael uses only professional-grade equipment and pigments — the same used by the world's best SMP artists.

What Perth Clients Say About Michael
72 verified five-star Google reviews. Here's what real clients say about their experience.
"Just got my head done by Mick — and I couldn't be happier. The detail and natural look are unreal. Super professional, made me feel comfortable the whole time. The blend and finish are perfect. If you're thinking about SMP, Mick's the guy."
"After my 1st session I couldn't see much. The 2nd I got a feel for my new look. By the 3rd it had the wow factor! Michael went through everything with a set price including 12 months aftercare. I needed a few touch-ups and he made it very easy."
"Michael is a real gentleman. He is so good at his craft — the fact he has just been to Brazil to update his knowledge is very reassuring. I was put at ease immediately and the result was better than I hoped."
"My beard shadow looks amazingly natural, even from up close. Even folks who see me regularly thought I was just now doing really crisp edges when I shaved. So helpful, such relaxed good service."
"Mick has been so good to work with. I had a very dry scalp which Mick overcame with great patience. The end result is brilliant. I recommend 100%."
"I received a gift voucher from my daughter after seeing her own results. Michael is so good at his craft — he explained everything clearly and I felt completely comfortable from start to finish."
