Scalp Micropigmentation Adelaide
SMP Australia – Walkerville Clinic | Caitlin James & Emma Burnett
Adelaide is home to SMP Australia’s flagship clinic — and for good reason. Situated in Walkerville, just 5km from the CBD, the clinic has been quietly transforming lives for over 12 years.
Led by head artist Caitlin James, the Adelaide clinic has earned a national reputation for exceptional, natural-looking scalp micropigmentation. Clients fly in from Perth, Darwin, interstate and even overseas specifically to be treated here.
About the Adelaide Clinic
SMP Australia Adelaide is a purpose-built, award-winning scalp micropigmentation clinic located at Level 1, 40 North East Road, Walkerville SA 5081.

The clinic meets the highest infection control standards and offers a comfortable, relaxed environment where clients consistently say they feel at ease from the moment they walk in.
