We Are With You Through Your Recovery

Recovery answer

What matters most after a hair transplant?

After a hair transplant, the first 10–15 days matter most because the grafts are anchoring and the skin is healing. Patients should avoid touching, scratching, sweating heavily, tight hats, direct heat, alcohol, smoking, and intense exercise during the early recovery window. Sleeping with the head elevated, taking prescribed medication on schedule, drinking water, and following the clinic's wash instructions help protect the grafts. Scabbing, mild redness, itching, swelling, and temporary shedding can be normal, but active bleeding, severe pain, unusual discharge, fever, or sudden swelling should be reported to the clinic. Recovery is not only a checklist; it is a monitored process. The patient portal, progress photos, and WhatsApp support help the team review healing, answer questions, confirm whether symptoms are expected, and guide the next step. This keeps aftercare connected to the original surgical plan.
