Can I wear a hat after hair transplant surgery?
You may want to wear a hat or skull cap after surgery to cover the implants from the face while they are healing, but it is best not to wear a hat if possible, as your skin will heal faster if exposed to air. If you feel you need to cover, a loose baseball cap or a hat with holes to allow the skin to breathe is best.
Post-procedure care
Advanced FUE procedure only causes discomfort after surgery and side effects are rare. The patient can continue the routine in zero time, although there are some postoperative instructions from the surgeon that should be followed.

What happens after a hair transplant?
Now that you have received your hair transplant with us, you need to be as careful as in the brochure provided online. It is of the utmost importance for you to strictly follow the instructions to ensure recovery and proper development. So much money, feeling, effort and time has been spent on hair transplantation and we do not make it work with you.
Pain
In most cases, patients do not feel pain. However, in some cases, the patient may feel a small amount of pain, something that goes beyond the pain and the needles, and this happens mainly around the 5-7 day mark and is due to irritation of the nerve pain. It occurs in only 5% of patients and is self-limiting.
Regular washing and shampooing
Regular cleaning and application of “pink shampoo” is necessary after hair transplant surgery. Some patients may feel that this will affect the implants, but if it is done as recommended, this is not a concern at all. The procedure twice a day helps to remove dirt, crust, blood and oil from the recipient areas. Careful care, as recommended, will remove the crusts within 2 weeks and this is required for proper growth.
It should be emphasized that proper hygiene helps prevent infection. Maintaining the fluid intake area for the first days with saline spray promotes early healing and helps in better growth. pharmaceutical.
Itching in donor and recipient areas
You may experience itching in the first few days after surgery on the donor and recipient areas. This is mostly sweet itch. Scratching the donor and recipient areas can cause injury and should therefore be condemned. Keeping areas free of debris, crust, or accumulation of dirt and grease will reduce itching. Scratching these areas with your fingernails can easily detach the implants, which can cause mild bleeding, but more importantly, can cause the loss of one or more of these valuable implants.
As it is “sweet itch”, you can even press the area with the palm with considerable relief. Another procedure that can resolve itching in the recipient area is to spray cold saline / bottled water. For the donor area, apply plenty of moisturizing aloe vera after 5-7 days. The aloe vera lotion provided in the kit is useful.
What to expect and when to expect it?
With an anagen regeneration process, by 4-6 weeks most implanted hairs appear to fall out in abundance. This is telogen effluvium and it does not worry as the roots are held under the skin and a new hair grows that pushes the implanted hair out of the body as it grows. Old hairs loosen for about 4-6 weeks as their tip reaches the surface of the skin and when they have no support, they fall out. Most people are worried and that’s natural. 60-90% of transplants fall.
By the end of the first year, the new hair should be as durable as the rest. They will also grow at the same rate as hair that has not been transplanted. Sometimes during the initial period after the transplant, the patient may notice that small hairs are shed along with their bulbs. They can even come out with small “crusts” within the first week or two. All of this is normal and unless there is bleeding at a graft site, there is no viable graft loss.
Rarely, there is a change in texture in transplanted hair. It may become more bizarre than it was, or even somewhat special. When examined microscopically, these hairs reveal some changes in the skin. This is temporary and resolves over time. This is one of the rare situations that may occur as a result of hair transplant.
