Scalp Micropigmentation. Preparation & aftercare guide.
In the week before your 1st session you should:
- Moisturize your scalp to ensure it is in the best condition
- Remove hair system to get fresh air to the scalp
On the day of your treatment:
- Wash hair to remove any hair fibres, hair thickening spray, gels, moisturiser
- Shave your head with clippers, shaver or a razor
- Pain Relief: paracetamol, taken around twenty minutes to half an hour pre-treatment session
- Do not drink coffee, tea (black/green), alcohol on the day of treatment (they are working as a blood thinner)
- Bring a cap to wear it after the treatment
For 4 days after each treatment you should:
- Try to avoid excess sweating
- Avoid showering your head
- Do not shave your head
- Do not use moisturizer
- Avoid touching your head
For 21 days after each treatment you should:
- Not going swimming
- Do not use Sauna or Steam room
- Avoid exposing your scalp to sunlight
After 4 days have passed you can:
- Shave your head
- Have a light shower on your head, using shampoo
- Start using moisturizer on your scalp to keep it in good condition and to avoid it getting dry
After 21 days have passed you can:
- Go swimming
- Use saunas or steam rooms
- Expose your scalp to sunlight but I do recommend that you use a high SPF like factor 50 to protect your skin.
