Congratulations on your successful hair transplant procedure! Finally, you’ve taken the biggest step toward overcoming that male pattern baldness that has bothered you all these years. However, your journey is far from over. There are certain precautions that you must be wary of to increase your chances at success.
Take care of your scar
Scarring is a common occurrence from a hair transplant procedure. As you wait for your hair follicles to grow, you may need to take certain medications to treat the swelling. Since you are not allowed to touch your scalp, the medication will help to reduce the irritation
Keep your head raised
Raising your head can prevent swelling from getting worse. When sleeping, prop your head up with two or more pillows. If you have a reclining chair at home, it will serve you better to sleep there instead of a bed.
Refrain from strenuous activities
Physical activity makes you sweat, and sweat is bad for your newly transplanted scalp, because it can increase the risk of infection exponentially. Thus, it’s imperative that you forgo any activity that can make you sweat profusely. Likewise, stay away from the sun as much as possible. If inevitable, cover your head with a cap made of soft and hypoallergenic material.
Use these tips to speed up your transplant recovery time and present to the world the new you in no time at all. If your doctor has other recommendations for you, it’s important that you follow them to the letter. If you encounter any problems, don’t hesitate to contact your transplant doctor immediately.
