Inside the MRI
The MRI uses powerful magnets to create pictures of your insides, like your brain and bones.
When you need an MRI, doctors will ask you to remove anything metal you're wearing.
Some makeup has tiny metal particles that can affect the MRI pictures.
Yes! Metals like iron or zinc can be in makeup, especially shiny or glittery types.
The metals in makeup can react to the MRI's magnets, which might blur the images.
If the pictures get blurry, doctors can't see clearly what’s inside you.
So, it’s best to go with a clean face. No makeup means clearer pictures!
This goes for skincare products like lotions or sunscreens with metals too!
Always ask your doctor what you should avoid wearing for your MRI.
