Will Minoxidil Cause SMP to Fade Quicker or Blur?

Dr. Rassman,

I am really interested in the new SMP procedure that NHI is offering.

My question is as follows: What effect, if any, will use of Rogaine Foam on the SMP treated areas have on the long-term viability of the ink (i.e., would it cause the ink to fade quicker or run together)?

Thanks in advance for your time spent answering this question.

I do not believe that minoxidil will have any effect on the pigment that is placed into the scalp, but no study has ever been done to confirm my suspicions.
