pre & post treatment care

Scalp micropigmentation (Tricopigmentation) requires you to take special care before and after the treatment. On this page you can find all the necessary information regarding pre and post treatment care. It is very important for you to comply with these instructions to ensure the best result in the shortest possible time.

The following instructions below are for users of a hairpiece / wig. Although the quality of hairpieces are very good nowadays, allowing for good skin transpiration it still has to be taken into account that skin can flake off or be excessively traumatised. We therefore advise treatment of the skin prior to tricopigmentation. Please speak with your dermatologist in order to prepare your skin for tricopigmentation. Below you will find the daily recommended after care procedures for all cases.

pre care

care before treatment

In general the following recommendations apply:

  1. Do not fix the prosthesis with glue for one month prior to treatment
  2. If you wish to keep wearing the hairpiece during this period, it could be worn during the day and taken off at night.
  3. When the hairpiece is not worn, a pharmacological treatment recommended by your doctor should be applied. This treatment often involves an ointment with 1% cortisone content.

After a month of following these guidelines the skin will have regenerated and will be ready for Tricopigmentation.
