Do You Know What Awaits You After Hair Transplantation?

Hello. Those who have followed my previous articles will remember that I have discussed hair transplantation in detail. One of the most common questions patients ask is what the process will be like after the procedure.

The night of the operation

After the transplant, you should use the prescribed medications carefully. Patients are informed both verbally and in writing about how to use their medicines.

The first week

From the first night onward, cold compresses are applied to the forehead area for 2–3 days to help reduce swelling and edema. Sleeping with the head elevated during the first 3 days is also recommended.

A travel pillow may help you sleep more comfortably without turning the head from side to side. The hair band is generally kept on during the first 5 days.

During the first week, working without keeping the head bent forward for long periods is important, because prolonged downward positioning can contribute to facial tension and swelling.

Within the first 3 days after the operation, the first hair wash and band removal are organized by the clinic. The exact timing is planned for each patient.
