A man underwent a 4000-graft hair transplant 15 days ago. He was advised by his doctor to massage his scalp while shampooing to remove the remaining scabs. He noticed some grafts seemed to have come out as well, though there was no bleeding or pain. He wants to know if hair grafts can be dislodged with vigorous shampooing.
New York hair restoration specialist Amiya Prasad, M.D. reviews his concerns in this video, and explains the timeline when grafts are firmly in place, how proper scalp washing after a transplant is essential to help with the healing process, and that losing some hair grafts after a transplant is to be expected:
1:50 - Dr. Prasad details his background training in cosmetic oculofacial plastic and reconstructive surgery, as well as his experience as a hair loss specialist and founder of TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration Centers
2:51 - How hair grafts are usually quite secure after 48-72 hours
3:26 - How donor area healing is one of the challenges when it comes to hair transplants
3:55 - How a 4000-graft hair transplant can be fairly traumatic on the scalp
4:08 - How the combination of extracellular matrix and PRP was found to be able to thicken existing hair
4:25 - The development of the Hair Regeneration treatment and how the treatment is performed
4:51 - How a classification system to optimize the dosage and delivery of the treatment was developed
5:18 - Why proper and vigorous shampooing is essential to proper healing of the grafts and scalp
6:18 - The added benefit of undergoing Hair Regeneration treatment after a hair transplant
6:52 - How wound healing follows a very stable schedule and consists of several phases
7:26 - Dr. Prasad’s recommendation
7:33 - How losing some hair grafts is possible after a transplant due to bleeding during surgery

Thanks Dr.Prasad I feel a bit more comfortable washing my hair a bit more aggressively. My doctor did clearly state in his Post Op Instructions that After Day 6 of the surgery there is almost no chance for the grafts cells to fall out since they are already healed in place. It seems that you also have the same consensus as him - but you also need to understand the patients worry since most of us do not have medical school training and do not know all the intricacies of how the scalp and follicles function. And also can you give me some of your hair!? Ha! You are lucky. My dad also has great hair and he is almost 60 and I have been thinning and losing hair...it's tough - but I just completed a transplant to add density, going on 1mg finasteride and using laser therapy. Praying and hoping for best and judging by your videos you also have a very warm personality and seem very humble. Take care doctor.

Hi@@RaghuveerSingh284, Some doctors are more conservative with healing. Keep in mind that there is no standardized certification for hair transplant surgery, so different doctors and technicians perform transplant surgery in different ways, so it is up to the surgeon performing it to prescribe their healing protocol.

Wow! This is very interesting ! On day 5 post op I took a shower and forgot to not put my head under the shower head; the shower head in my house has pretty strong water pressure and It seemed to have knocked off the majority of my scabs... I thought maybe I might have damaged some grafts ... afterwards I picked off one of the scabs that were hanging off and I saw what appeared to be dried up blood in that spot. I didn’t see any leaking blood so I’m guessing that I didn’t lose any graft but I’m hoping that I didn’t hurt the chances of graft survival . Is it possible to hurt the chances of graft survival in this way ? Also .. if grafts are secure are 2-3 days why do so many doctors recommend such cautious measures for so many more days afterwards ? Many even gave different ideas about graft security being something that doesn’t occur until 10 days or even 2 weeks post op. Seems to not be a general consensus between doctors on that one . Is there a reason for that ?

@AmiyaPrasadMD 4 года назад

Hi Benjamin Kew, It is highly unlikely you damaged any grafted hair follicles this long after your transplant surgery as they are very firmly in place at this time. Any lost follicles by this time would have been lost eventually as they didn't take during surgery. If you have any concerns, you should refer to your transplant surgeon who knows details of your scalp and your surgery that I'm not aware of. I hope this helps you.

Sir thank you for your great info ! I have recently 10 days ago gotten a hair transplant approx 2700 grafts to my front and crown area. I did not touch the recipient area for the first 5 days except for cleaning after the 3rd day post op. After the fifth day I began to ivoluntarily pick at the scabs. I tried to stop but somehow I kept finding myself picking at it. There was no bleeding or pain when I did it. The scabs had already become fully dried up and crusty. Now I am worried I have permanently damaged my hair. Do you think I have damaged it?

@AmiyaPrasadMD 2 года назад

Hi Akshay Narasimaiah, You likely didn't damage your grafts as the follicle should be firmly in place underneath the skin, but I advise that you not pick at the scabs. Your transplant surgeon can examine your scalp for any possible issues. I hope this clarifies things for you.

After 17 days from hair transplant I started to massage the recipient area with vigorous massaging and shampooing, but 3-4 times I shampooed, it happened that some scabs came off and some blood came out. I didn't use my nails but my fingertips. In your opinion, did this cause the grafts to be disloged or compromise the transplant? Thank you very very much for your patience in helping people with great fears

@AmiyaPrasadMD 7 месяцев назад

Hi @profsavino, Grafts should be firmly in the place in the scalp by now, and should not be lost after shampooing. However, I suggest you follow up with your transplant surgeon who can examine your scalp for issues, and knows details of your transplant surgery.

Hi Doctor, thanks for your videos. I have some confusions: 1- Can we go outside on a sunny day after 48-72 hours of hair transplant? Does it cause sunburn or damage to the newly planted grafts? 2-There is a myth that finestride may cause unfertility. Is it true? For how many months we have to take it after a transplant? 3- If we stop using minoxdil, will it affect our natural existing hair?

@AmiyaPrasadMD 3 года назад

Hi muhammad akbar, Yes, you can go outside 48-72 hours after a transplant, but you should watch your sun exposure so it doesn't cause sunburn. While finasteride is unlikely to cause infertility, as a precaution I do have my male patients stop using it temporarily if they are trying to conceive a child Yes. Since minoxidil delays natural hair shedding of native hair, if you stop using it, you will likely have a sudden hair shed of native and transplanted hair. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Hello sir! My name is faisal khan Sir I had my hair transplant done on 7th of July. today One month and 8 days have passed And in 10 days I was called for headwash. But due to the distance of 250 km What did I do at home? And in 21 days I was called for PRP. He said that your head is very dirty, clean it with water. Where did the staff wash my head I went to the mirror and looked at it. After cleaning the TB, 60% of the transplanted hair has disappeared from my face. And even after washing the hair, the hair is still there which is slightly bent from one side. What hair or grafts will affect the roots? Please answer sir?

@AmiyaPrasadMD 10 дней назад

Hi Faisal Khan, Scrubbing your scalp this long after a hair transplant will not dislodge grafts. Even if grafted hair sheds, as long as the grafted follicle is in place, hair will regrow. As for the bending of your hair shafts, only your transplant surgeon can answer this is as they know the details of how your transplant was performed. I hope this helps you.

You said the grafts will be secure after 48 hours, but most research suggests it's more like 7 days. I'm confused.

@AmiyaPrasadMD Год назад

Hi Lastofus, Grafts are secure enough after 48-72 hours after surgery that a tool is needed to dislodge them. Grafts that fall out if you scrub 72 hours after surgery didn't take to the scalp, and would not have grown terminal hair. You can wait 7 days, or whichever time your surgeon recommends as they know the details of your scalp condition, and the way your transplant surgery was performed. I hope this clarifies things for you.

@Ucarebc 2 года назад

Hello doctor I hope you’re doing fine, just some quick questions, is prp worth it after hair transplant? And is it okay to apply essential oil such as Rosemary oil on the scalp a month after hair transplant? And last question can a hair transplant be done more than once in a life time Thank you so much for your information

@AmiyaPrasadMD 2 года назад

Hi Sofiane Belbrik, Treatment is still needed after a hair transplant because transplants alone don't treat progressive hair thinning. I don't see the benefit of using rosemary oil or other essential oils after a hair transplant, so I don't recommend it. You can have more than one hair transplant, but it doesn't mean you will get more scalp coverage. You can refer to these videos which answer your questions about treatment after a hair transplant, and multiple hair transplants in more detail: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rIlI55F478w.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-at-pzX0TEB4.html

If this is correct plus any other ways they can be destroyed does the 72 hour rule still apply or can they be destroyed after this this time?

Hello, doc. I have always loved your videos. I had a specific question. What should be the minimum gap after a FUE hair transplant for PRK refractive surgery? I underwent my 2nd FUE hair transplant on the 18th April. I got the first one done 3 years back. I also plan to get my PRK refractive surgery done after this. I will be wearing a surgical cap during eye surgery. The eye surgeon will put his hands on my scalp while performing the surgery plus I will not be able to take a head bath for 5 days post-PRK. Considering all this, how many days should be the minimum gap between the 2 surgeries so that there is no risk to my transplanted grafts?

Hi jougetsu, It's highly unlikely that you lost a graft 3 weeks after surgery since grafts are firmly in place by this time, and any grafts lost by this time didn't take to the scalp with surgery, and would have not grown hair anyway. If you have concerns about your transplant surgery, you should follow up with your surgeon as they can examine your scalp, and know details about your surgery. I hope this helps you.

After hair wash he done PRP to me. Now my question is , Will the lost hair will comeback or not?How to get out of dandruff after HT as I have oily scalp, Please respond sir...

@AmiyaPrasadMD 4 года назад

Hi Pavan Kalyan, It's normal for hair shafts to shed, but as long as the transplanted hair follicle remains after shedding, then the hair will grow back. This long after your transplant, your grafts are firmly in place and will not be dislodged by scrubbing. If you happen to lose a grafted hair follicle now, it wouldn't have survived anyway as it didn't take to the scalp and a blood supply. You can ask your surgeon's advice about when you can go to a more aggressive shampoo for dandruff treatment, as they know the details of your surgery and your scalp that I'm not aware of. I hope this helps you.

Should they be left to grow normal, they need to be removed or they will shed naturally?

Should the transplanted hair shed quickly so follicle beneath is allow to grow the hair ? Does the hair at the top hamper hair growth from the follicle ? Your assistance will be highly appreciated.

Hi AF B, If you are already washing your hair after your transplant, and the scabs are gone, that's all you need to do in physically handling your scalp. There are different rates of shedding and regrowth for individuals who had a hair transplant. However, treatment is still needed after a transplant for treatment of progressive hair thinning, as the transplant does not treat progression at all.

Hi @wassierehman8821, Oral minoxidil is a blood thinner, so you need to consult with your doctor about any heart issues before you take it.

I’m 6 days post op and currently talking finasteride minoxidil pill I’m curious as to when is a good time to do hair regeneration. Will you have to do the hair regeneration treatment the rest of your life to keep the hair thick or is a 1 year process?

@AmiyaPrasadMD 4 года назад

Hi Antwain 84, The ideal window for the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment is within 1-2 months after hair transplant surgery to help with graft healing, to thicken native thinning hair, and to stimulate growth from hair follicles that are still viable, but currently not growing. The treatment lasts between 3-5 years, and some patients get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first at no additional charge. While a large percentage of men do continue with finasteride for maximum effectiveness of the treatment, all TrichoStem Hair Regeneration patients can stop or be weaned from minoxidil. I have treated patients again after 5 years, and their hair still looked pretty thick at the time. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Dear doctor, thank you very much for your kind information, my doctor told me to go to the clinic to wash my hair at day 10 firmly, but I went on day 9, and he washed my hair very hard... my question is that, is this ok? first, because I went 1 day earlier and second because he touched my skin very hard and firm for removing the scabs?

Hi Mohammad Eskandari, It's more than likely fine, as we have patients who have their scalp scrubbed even sooner than that in our office. Also, your surgeon would not have done it if it was unsafe. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Hi Michael Birnbaum, I am speaking from my own experience performing hair transplant surgery, and I perform almost exclusively FUT surgery. FUE transplants have a lot more damaged (transected) grafts from the extraction process, which don't have a root to take to the scalp. I still advise that you follow your surgeon's advice for aftercare. I hope this clarifies things for you.

@AmiyaPrasadMD Год назад

Hi gargallo annale, Your grafts have healed by now, and shed hair will grow back because the grafted hair follicle is in place. Grafts that did not take to the scalp would have been apparent in the first few days after surgery, not 3 weeks later. I hope this clarifies things for you.

@AmiyaPrasadMD Год назад

Hi Zain Lala, While treatment is still needed after a hair transplant for progressive hair thinning, for men I usually prescribe finasteride to slow hair thinning, and our TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment to thicken thinning hair, and stimulate hair growth from dormant hair follicles. Unlike PRP alone, our treatment only requires 1-2 treatment sessions, with benefits lasting 3-5 years. Our TrichoStem Hair Regeneration patients don't need to use minoxidil after our treatment. Mesotherapy is not practiced in the US. You can refer to these videos on why treatment is still needed after a hair transplant, why our patients don't need to use minoxidil after our treatment, and how our treatment is different from PRP alone: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rIlI55F478w.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T5iPdCfZ2Ng.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vZAGaAssewY.html

I wouldn't recommend minoxidil as a treatment as there are better, more long-term sustainable treatments available, like finasteride to slow hair thinning, and the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment to thicken thinning hair, and stimulate hair growth from dormant hair follicles. You can refer to these videos about why treatment is still needed after a hair transplant, the limitations of minoxidil, and why our TrichoStem Hair Regeneration patients don't need minoxidil after our injection treatment: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rIlI55F478w.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sv82XSpQfnI.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T5iPdCfZ2Ng.html

Hi John Wicks, Your grafted hair follicles should be firmly in place by now, so what you are seeing may be shock loss, and shed hair from shock loss usually grows back. However, if your surgeon transplanted hair too close to native follicles, those follicles can be damaged permanently. I can't tell what happened in your situation without examining your scalp, so I suggest you follow up with your surgeon who knows details of your scalp and surgery, and can examine your scalp physically.

Hi Brain Hax, Scabs are just dead and dry skin, not the follicle. A small bulb at the end of shed hair can be dead skin or keratin, and not the graft, so hair still grows after shedding.

@AmiyaPrasadMD 4 года назад

Hi srikanth ravula, I usually camouflage the donor area with FUT transplants with cosmetic surgery closure of the incision, along with regenerative medicine for healing. Hair cannot grow back in the donor area as the follicles are already removed.

Hi Dr. Jahn, I advise that you wait for scalp inflammation to resolve after your transplant before using minoxidil, as minoxidil can irritate the scalp even without the inflammation and scabs from a hair transplant. The TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment has formulation based on individual hair loss factors of the patient, so it's not something that can be emulated by another procedure. However, you may note that our TrichoStem Hair Regeneration patient don't need to use minoxidil after the injection treatment.

@AmiyaPrasadMD 2 года назад

Hi, Hair transplant surgeons have differing amounts of hair grafts placed in a single procedure. As I explained in your other comment, nutrition from surrounding tissue is important in graft healing, so I make sure that graft density does not exceed what the skin tissue can heal effectively, or you risk losing starving grafts and losing them. However, it after 48-72 hours it takes for hair grafts to be firmly in place, with more healing time the surrounding tissue becomes softer, and the hair grafts become even more firmly rooted in the scalp.

Hi Jake Smith, This long after surgery, the grafts are firmly in place. Any grafts that may have completely dislodged after the first 48-72 hours didn't take during surgery, and would not have grown hair. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Hi sir on day seven after hair transplant surgery I massaged and removed scalp and it's been month my scalp looks pinkish like how the skin ll look when scap removed prematurely I understand it's a mistake that I should have not massaged and picked scab on seventh day Now will the scalp be cureed from discoloration or is it permanent

@AmiyaPrasadMD 2 года назад

Hi Happy Me, I haven't examined your scalp, so I can't confirm what the issue is. I suggest you have your scalp examined by your transplant surgeon so they can give you the appropriate advice based on their physical examination. I hope this helps you.

hi doctor, what do you mean by a graft above the skin attached by a clot will likely not survive? Im quite worried as a few of my scabs are above my hair and when i removed the scabs the hair is still there on my hairline.

@AmiyaPrasadMD 2 года назад

Hi Haziq Shah, A grafted follicle only attached by clot did not take to the scalp, so it won't grow hair. However, even if a hair sheds with the scab, as long as the grafted follicle is rooted to the scalp, it will survive and grow hair. I hope this clarifies things for you.

After HT my scalp is very itchy . I removed scabs with my nails after 1 month. is it fine . ?will I get result.?

@AmiyaPrasadMD 3 года назад

Hi karthik keyan, As I don't know where you are with your general healing after your transplant, you should be following up with your surgeon. It is generally safer to remove scabs through scrubbing than by peeling them off. I hope this helps you.

H Doctor, i haven't understood the meaning of "a graft above the skin attached by a clot will likely not survive". Do you mean in the first 48 hours or also After? What Is the difference between hair in Scrubs and hair in a clot? Thank you for your kindness.

@AmiyaPrasadMD 7 месяцев назад

Hi @giovannifioccola, A graft above the skin attached by a clot means the graft didn't take to the scalp, and is only held by the clot. Without taking to the scalp, the graft will not survive. It is possible for high blood pressure from nervousness and anxiety to cause a graft to be pushed out of the scalp during surgery, which is commonly called "popping". This is why it is important for the patient to be sedated and relaxed during transplant surgery to prevent popping. I hope this clarifies things for you.

What about popping a pimple one week after a HT? Will that ruin the graft?

@AmiyaPrasadMD 3 года назад

Hi Mike Philpot, A pimple on the scalp shouldn't be a problem for graft survival, and it's actually pretty common. It's important to keep your scalp clean for proper healing after your transplant. If you have any concerns, you can refer it to your surgeon who can examine your scalp, and knows details about your surgery. I hope this helps you.

It is recommended to not use razor blade on transplanted hair and wait at least 1 year to use it. I wonder why ? how the razor blade affects transplanted hairs ?

@AmiyaPrasadMD 4 года назад

Hi momo momo, Using a razor on the scalp this long after a hair transplant won't affect growth of transplanted hair, but it might cause ingrown hair, or an infection, so your surgeon is likely trying to avoid unnecessary risks to your scalp. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Very good evening dr prasad. Sir I have gone through 1st hair transplant 1.5 years ago. Hair transplant with 2000 graft.Result was good till 1 year 2 months .But recently I have faced lot of hair fall. My working area is so dusty..I don't bother to shampoo for some days.i am concerned that I have lost so many transplanted hair recently..Is there any chance they might grow back?

@AmiyaPrasadMD 4 года назад

Hi Arghya Roy, It is highly unlikely you are losing transplanted hair because of dust or not shampooing. You should be aware that transplants do not treat progressive hair loss of native hair. You need treatment after transplant like finasteride to slow thinning of native hair, and a treatment like Hair Regeneration to thicken thinning native hair, and stimulate growth from dormant native hair follicles. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Hi The Kashmiri Explorer, While it is safe to wear a cap after initial graft healing, you should be asking your transplant surgeon who knows details of your scalp, and your transplant surgery. I hope this helps you.
