Post-Treatment Care
Be sure to receive guidance from our practitioner on how to care for your scalp post-treatment to ensure the best results.

Don’t touch the area with unwashed hands as they may contain bacteria resulting in an infection. Do not use products that contain AHA’s (alpha hydroxy acid) on the procedure area as they will fade your pigment. Discontinue the use of Rogaine as well as Head and Shoulders as it contains harsh drying agents. 

Day 1-6
Avoid touching, showering or shaving the treated area. Avoid any physical activities that may cause excessive perspiration. Refrain from washing your head and getting it wet.

Day 7-10
Wash your head gently with cold water and gentle/organic products (example, using baby shampoo or charcoal soap). Apply a moisturizer 3x daily (with clean hands) to prevent the skin from drying (use Vitamin A&D ointments). We recommend using non-perfumed moisturizers. You can perform activities from which you lightly perspire (for example: lift weights at a low pace, but avoid tough cardio sessions). 

 

Day 10 and Onward
You can resume your usual schedule. This is the time when you might consider using a trimmer or razor blade to shave our head. However, avoid using it if there are still healing scabs on the skin. You can also resume your usual workout regimen. 

Day 30 or once all sessions have been completed
Swimming, saunas and outdoor activities are now permitted. A quality 30-50 SPF sunscreen is highly recommended. Moisturize daily with a light-natural moisturizing cream. We recommend applying all natural-organic moisturizers (ex. coconut oil), thin/light-coat as you heal. 

*Failure to follow these instructions may result in pigment color loss. This may then result in extra sessions and cost. 

Touch-Up Sessions
Keep your look fresh with periodic touch-ups as needed.
