Scalp treatment is one of the most important phases prior to and after any SMP procedure. Maintaining a healthy & moisture scalp will minimize the discomfort ness & bleeding and will maximize the results you are looking for. Here are some tips & recommendations we encourage at Star Micro Studio of Rockville MD.
Minoxidil (Rogaine): Often used for androgenetic alopecia; may need to be discontinued prior to SMP.
Finasteride (Propecia): Used for male pattern baldness; could affect eligibility for SMP.
Corticosteroids: Used for conditions like alopecia areata; should be evaluated before SMP
Ketoconazole Shampoo: Used for dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis; may need to be paused.
Tar-based Shampoos: For psoriasis; should be discussed with a practitioner.
Psoriasis: Active psoriasis on the scalp may prevent SMP.
Eczema: Inflammatory conditions need to be stable before proceeding with SMP.
Fungal Infections: Any active infection must be treated before SMP.
