PRECARE & AFTERCARE
What Should You Do After Your Micropigmentation Session?
The scalp micropigmentation procedure involves the application of natural pigments to the scalp, replicating the appearance of real hair follicles and creating the illusion of a full head of hair that has been freshly shaved. Many individuals prefer the aesthetic of a shaved head over dealing with various forms of hair loss. After your initial micropigmentation session, it is crucial to follow specific steps to ensure proper healing and optimal results. Here is the aftercare instructions:
Avoid Washing Your Head for the First 3 Days
Refrain from washing your head as your scalp is sensitive post-procedure. Avoid physical exertion that causes sweating, stay out of direct sunlight for up to 30 days, and wear a loose-fitting hat when outdoors.
Shave Your Head from Day 4
If you wish to shave your head, use an electric foil shaver to minimize disruption to the scalp pigments. Avoid disturbing any visible scabs during shaving.
Take a Light Shower with Sulfate-Free Shampoo from Day 4
You can lightly shower with lukewarm water and a mild sulfate-free shampoo. Minimize physical activity to prevent excessive sweating.
Resume Normal Routine from Day 7
After a week, your scalp should be healed. You can use a rotary shaver to trim your head but avoid wet shaving with a blade. You can return to the gym and engage in regular activities.
For the best results, multiple scalp micropigmentation sessions may be necessary, typically 2-3 sessions lasting. It is essential to adhere to the aftercare guidelines after each session to ensure the pigments adhere correctly. Any deviation from the instructions should be promptly addressed with your technician to mitigate any issues. Monitoring symptoms post-procedure is crucial, with mild redness and minimal swelling being normal, while severe swelling or signs of infection should be reported to a healthcare professional promptly.
