Can I wear makeup when I get a ct scan?

[Anonymous]

I have to get a ct of my jaw done tomorrow and I'm wondering if it's ok to wear makeup. I know some things effect mri and I've tried to look up about makeup for ct and can't find anything.

The chances are that it won't affect it, I've never heard of it doing so, buuut you may as well be safe and not wearing make up just for the scan should probably not be a big deal :)

Probably not but if you have to even ask why North just skip the makeup? Not important for something like this anyway.

Because even though infant wear much it makes a big difference in how I look and I never leave without it.

A CT scan is an X-ray so it shouldn't affect it at all if you wear makeup

Unless it lead based from the make up from the 1500s you should be fine
