Avoid Activities That Cause Pigment Loss
​
For at least 4-6 weeks, avoid:
Swimming pools (chlorine can fade pigment
Hot tubs & saunas (heat and moisture can soften scabs prematurely)
Excessive sweating (sweat contains salt, which can pull pigment from the skin)
-
Keeping the area dry and protected ensures optimal healing and long-term vibrancy.
-
Support Healing with a Healthy Lifestyle
-
Eat a nutrient-rich diet and stay hydrated to promote skin regeneration.
-
Avoid alcohol and smoking, as they can slow healing and impact pigment retention.
