I spoke to my doctor about this and he said alcohol is fine as long as it's not excessively consumed. He even said that light to moderate alcohol intake actually increases blood flow, but too much alcohol would dry out the hair. Have any of you drank after a HT procedure and been fine? I'm not talking about getting wasted.. but one or two drinks socially .. maybe once a week or so? Just curious.

I would wait a few weeks until you are totally healed. You paid alot for a procedure I am sure, might as well play it safe right......

I would leave it for a few weeks because it causes high blood pressure & thats the last thing you need after a procedure

Hey Scorpian,

I would lay off the liquor until I was totally healed.  I was extremely cautious and listened to everything they told me to do to ensure I got the best results possible.  I quit smoking, lost weight, started exercising and eating healthy.  I guess I'm just paranoid...lol.

Keep us updated.

Personally I laid off the alcohol the first few months after a procedure. I wanted t okeep my body as healthy as possible. Just my advice.

I agree...I would and did stop drinking and smoking on the advice of the Armani clinic. The last thing you would want is to compromise your results!

I didnt drink after my procedure.  Not much of a drinker anyway.  But I dont think it would do much harm a drink on the rare occassion.  As with most things I just wouldnt over do it.  As they say everything in moderation.  Reason I say this is maybe if you are used to drinking a fair bit like some of my mates, then going off the booze may give you adverse effects.   Anyway maybe give it a week or two at least just to be sure.
