Have you had a hair transplant? Do you want to know how to wash your hair after a hair transplant? A lot of patients ask us if they can wash their hair after a hair transplant. They ask us if their transplanted hair will fall off after washing.
So let us take a look at how to wash your hair after a hair transplant. Taking good post-operative care is very important for successful hair transplant. Not taking good care or not keeping your scalp clean may cause your hair transplant to fail. That is why keeping your scalp clean, washing your hair in the right way and taking good post-operative care is very important. Your surgeon will tell you when and how to wash your hair after a hair transplant.
Every surgeon gives their patients different instructions regarding their post-surgery hair wash. Washing your hair after the hair transplant plays an important role in the recovery process and success of the hair transplant. Every surgeon has their own method and post-care plan. Some surgeons recommend a hair wash just one day after the surgery and some may suggest a hair wash after 48 hours. This completely depends on your surgeon’s experience and plan. Some surgeons may recommend the baby shampoo and some suggest shaving creams.
As we said, this differs from surgeon to surgeon. Today we will tell you about our Hair MD protocol. At Hair MD, we ask the patients to spray saline water on the grafted area for 5 days after the surgery. This should be sprayed every hour in small quantities.
This spray keeps the grafted area moist. You don’t have to wake up at night to spray this, you only have to spray this
when you are awake.
Sleep is of utmost importance for recovery. Nothing should be applied to the grafted are at this time. Patients are asked to wash their hair 5 days after the surgery. We have created a protocol regarding how to wash your hair and what to wash your hair with to prevent any confusion in post-op care. Postoperative patients have to take utmost care to prevent any damage to the operated areas. That is why it is important to take overall care about how and when you wash your hair.
We recommend Johnson’s baby shampoo which is a mild shampoo for head wash. To wash your head, first wet your scalp with lukewarm water. Then mix a little shampoo with water in a bottle and make a foam mixture. Apply this mixture on the transplanted area. After you apply shampoo on the transplanted area, leave it on for around 5 minutes. Then apply shampoo on the rest of your scalp as well. Then wash off the shampoo using lukewarm water. While washing move your hand in the direction of hair growth, that is, from the back towards the front.
When you wash your hair for the first time after the surgery, be gentle. As time passes, you can increase the pressure and wash your hair twice a day. Washing your head will help to get rid of the scabs as well.
You have to remove the scabs carefully and you should not scratch them as this may damage or dislodge the grafts. Five days after you start washing your scalp, the scabs will start to fall away. Once the scabs fall off, you can start washing your hair normally and
massage your scalp as well. So this was our post-surgery head wash procedure.
You should follow all the post-op care instructions, This care will play an important role in the success of the surgery. Not following the post-op care instructions, not washing your scalp on time may cause infections and your hair transplant may fail. That is why it is important to keep the scalp clean and wash it well. Follow the instructions that your doctor gave and keep your scalp clean and wash your hair.
Avoid going out in the sun for the first week after surgery and sleep on your back, Avoid sitting or standing for too long. This may cause the swelling to reach your face. Eat a healthy and balanced diet. Avoid smoking and alcohol, as well as hair dying and styling.
Your hair transplant will definitely be successful.
