Keep your scalp clean by using mild, sulfate-free shampoos. Avoid harsh chemicals or exfoliating agents that can irritate the scalp and cause premature fading of the pigment. Regular cleansing helps prevent buildup of oils and dirt, maintaining the clarity of the pigmentation.
Ultraviolet (UV) rays can significantly fade SMP pigments. When outdoors, wear a hat or apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 50 to your scalp. Consistent sun protection is crucial to prevent discoloration and maintain the treatment’s appearance.
After the initial healing period, keep your scalp moisturised to prevent dryness and flaking. Use a fragrance-free, non-comedogenic moisturiser to maintain skin health and support pigment retention.
Chlorine and saltwater can contribute to pigment fading. It’s advisable to avoid swimming in pools or the ocean for at least 30 days post-treatment. If exposure is unavoidable, rinse your scalp thoroughly with fresh water immediately afterward.
Refrain from using products containing alcohol, glycolic acid, or other harsh chemicals on your scalp, as these can accelerate pigment degradation. Opt for gentle, scalp-friendly products to preserve the integrity of your SMP.
While SMP is long-lasting, touch-up sessions every 4–6 years are recommended to maintain the desired look. These sessions help refresh the pigment and adjust for any natural fading over time.
Overall health impacts skin condition and, consequently, the appearance of SMP. Stay hydrated, eat a balanced diet, and manage stress to support skin health and prolong the effects of your treatment.
