Minimize direct sun exposure to your scalp to prevent sunburn or tanning. Wear a hat or use sunscreen if you need to be outside.

Keep your scalp moisturized but avoid using heavy or oily products. A light, non-comedogenic moisturizer is ideal.

Inform us about medications or supplements you are taking, especially those that may thin your blood (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil).

Use a gentle exfoliating scrub to remove dead skin cells from your scalp. This helps to ensure a smooth surface for the SMP application.

Avoid using styling products such as gels, hairsprays, or waxes that can leave residue on the scalp.

Refrain from intense physical activity that could cause excessive sweating, as it can affect the procedure.

Depending on your desired outcome, you may be advised to trim your hair to a specific length before the procedure.

Drink plenty of water to ensure your skin is well-hydrated, which can help with the healing process.
