Afterecare
Hair wash after hair transplant is very important for a successful result. Crusting and redness in the hair after the procedure causes the area to become sensitive. Therefore, the first wash should be done by a specialist doctor. The first wash is usually done 48 hours after the procedure.
Hair wash after hair transplant is very simple actually. But a few days after your doctor does your first wash, your scalp is relieved with the help of a foaming spray. This foaming process should be applied from back to front. Because the exit of the hair follicles is from the back to the front.
Things to pay attention
You should be as precise as possible in your movements. Rinse as little as possible with the shampoo or serum your doctor has given you. Do not rub or scratch your growing hair. It is very important not to use your nails while washing your hair. Because it is the process where the hair roots are the most sensitive. You can lose most of your transplanted hair after wrong washing. You can do the first wash after your doctor has done it. You can wash successfully with the help of a person. If you doing hair wash after hair transplant, your hair follicles will become stronger and adapt to their new places easily.
Doctors recommend washing the hair regularly in the first weeks after the operation. After hair transplantation, preparations should be made for hair washing. When you apply for hair transplantation in our clinic, our patient consultants will give you the necessary information.
Necessary materials
Lotion: There will be crusts on the scalp, so after the first wash, lotion is used and the crusts are reduced.
Water: The water you will wash should be neither hot nor cold; the water should be completely warm.
Shampoo: You can use shampoo according to your doctor’s recommendation.
Towel: Your towel must be soft. A rough towel will damage your scalp.
Washing process: After applying the lotion to the hair, you should not scrub, however, the water you will use should not be pressurized. Wash your hair with very light finger movements.
Dryer: You should never keep the dryer close to your hair. Its rank must be at the lowest level. Apply without damaging your hair roots.
The after care of a hair transplant is just as important as the transplant itself. How much you care about your transplant after the procedure will decide the final result and appearance. The more you care for your hair transplant, the faster it will heal. During the first week, also known as the recovery week, the transplanted area becomes red and crusty due to the clotting of blood. The first wash after hair transplant at the hair clinic reduced itching and redness. First hair wash after hair transplant is always performed at the clinic because there is a high risk of the follicles of hair getting detached if you do the first wash after hair transplant yourself because washing hair after hair transplant can be tricky and this job should be left for the professionals only.
Your first wash with shampoo after hair transplant is going to be at the clinic to prevent any mishaps such as detachment of the hair follicles, rigorous washing that can lead to scarring or hurting the crusty skin. Washing hair after hair transplant does not only require a proper technique but also supervision of professionals. Hence why we never let our patients do the first shampoo after hair transplant themselves. Our doctors at Esthetic Hair Mexico have years of experience so you can be sure that you are in good hands and you can trust them with the hair wash after hair transplant.
The most commonly asked question after a hair transplant is when can I wash my hair normally after hair transplant? Doctors never allow you to do the first hair wash after hair transplant yourself. After washing hair after hair transplant at the clinic, the doctors will give you instructions for post operation care.
About two weeks after the hair transplant, the transplanted grafts will off in a stage called “shock loss.” This stage is very common and all patients experience it. These grafts will be replaced with new ones. During the first three days, you should be extra careful and not wash your hair. You can have a gentle hair wash after hair transplant after about three days. However, washing hair after hair transplant should only be done with a very mild shampoo. However, any activity that can make you sweat such as sauna, sports or exposure to sunlight should be avoided completely for almost two weeks.
