11 April 2024Once Transplanted, Hair Won’t Fall Out Again
This is why more and more people worldwide are choosing hair transplants, as they struggle to manage hair loss on their scalp. Hair loss is caused by a variety of factors: genetics, hormones, or, in large part, the stress we face.
While the procedure itself is the key to success, following post-operative care instructions determines how smoothly everything goes afterward. This part of the hair transplant process is significant and essential.
Recovery After Hair Transplant
The first step in post-procedure recovery is taking the medications prescribed by the doctor. It’s crucial to take these as they help with swelling and any discomfort or tenderness of the scalp that may arise.
The second step is observing the time intervals between the procedure and various hair-related activities. For example, blow-drying your hair is recommended only a month after the procedure, sleeping on your side or stomach is advised 6 to 10 days post-op, and chemical hair coloring should be avoided for at least 6 months.
The third important point to follow is limiting physical activities, including smoking, drinking alcohol, biking, and swimming.
