Do alcohol based lotions cause SMP to fade with long-term use?

Scalp MicroPigmentation or SMP post care regime is different for most doctors but in general topical alcohol should be avoided.

The use of alcohol based lotions should be avoided for only the first 3 days after the SMP is done. After that the wounds heal so that the alcohol can't get to the pigment to have an impact on it. The skin is an effective barrier to protect the SMP from everything except direct long-term sun exposure.
