Important instructions after hair transplantation It is one of the important topics that every person who has undergone hair transplantation must pay close attention to and take into account.
Talking about the necessary advice after the operation, it is that the hair transplantation process is a cosmetic surgical procedure aimed at transferring the follicles from the hair donor area in order to fill the voids and baldness in the scalp.
Concerning post-operative advice, these instructions vary according to the days after the operation as follows:
These days are important and sensitive after transplantation, so the patient on the day of the operation must not remove the bandages for hours to prevent swelling, and he must not bend over for 48 hours to prevent swelling and bleeding, but rather keep the head as high as possible.
On the day of the operation and 5 days after the operation, it is necessary to sleep on 2 or 3 medical pillows with the need to raise the head to prevent swelling, and it is important to wash the hair for 72 hours after the operation, to prevent hair loss.
On the day after the operation, one of the medical team washes the patient’s hair and scalp, and instructs him about the methods of washing the scalp for the next ten days, because every day has a different washing method.
It is also important to refrain from smoking and strenuous exercise.
These days are important, but not as important as the first three days. During this period, caution should be taken about taking off and wearing clothes to prevent damage to the hair follicles, and medications must be taken regularly, as the doctor provides the patient with some vitamins to strengthen the new hair follicles, and speed up the healing process.
It is necessary not to take medicines or blood-diluting drinks such as green tea, aspirin, coffee and alcohol for 10 days after transplantation.
