Can I Apply Sunscreen and Hair Loss Concealers Like Toppik to My Scalp a Few Months after Hair Transplant?

This question, answered by Coalition hair transplant surgeon Dr. Scott Alexander, was asked by a member of our Hair Loss Social Community and Discussion Forums:

What do you think about putting some sunscreen on my scalp and then putting some Toppik hair loss concealer on top? Will that be okay?

I do have pre-existing hair,and applying only sunscreen, even the ones that claim are non-greasy, makes my hairs stick together and look real bad. It’s also difficult to apply on your scalp when you have some hair.

I would try using aerosol sunscreen instead of the lotion, which should help with the greasiness.

Yes, it is fine to use Toppik hair loss concealer in addition to the sunscreen.

I hope this helps.
