learn Scalp Micropigmentation

Can I use hair loss treatments (finasteride, minoxidil) after scalp micropigmentation? About half of clinics say finasteride can continue through scalp micropigmentation, and about half ask clients to pause topical minoxidil during the sessions and for roughly 30 days afterwards. That pause is clinic aftercare convention, not a label instruction - ask your prescriber first, because stopping minoxidil usually causes shedding.
Is there an age limit for scalp micropigmentation? Most providers say there is no upper age limit for scalp micropigmentation, and about half set a minimum of 18, matching tattoo law in the UK and most US states. A minority advertise lower minimums with parental consent, which may not be legal where you live.
How soon can I resume normal activities after scalp micropigmentation? Providers commonly say normal daily activity can resume within a day of scalp micropigmentation, with about half restricting exercise for 5 to 10 days and about half saying full activity waits 2 to 3 weeks. Follow the aftercare your own practitioner gives you.
