    How important is post-operative care after a successful hair transplant?

    The importance of post-operative care is more as far as the successful and desired outcomes are expected from the hair transplant in Punjab:

    So in today’s blog, we shall be discussing each aspect of post-operative care of the hair transplant:

    Hair transplant

    Before beginning, let us begin with the meaning of the hair transplant. It is a surgical procedure in which the strips or grafts are extracted from the donor zone and are transplanted in the recipient zone. The results of the procedure cannot be immediately observed. Rather it takes a few months for the desired outcomes to show up. For that, the individual has to follow the subsequent measures:

    • The area should be moist

    The area should not be left too dry or too wet. For that, our doctors will provide you with the soothing kit which may include the following:

    • Soothing compresses
    • Spritz

     

    • Do not ignore the swelling

    The outcome of swelling is obvious. But you should take some measures to keep it to a minimum:

    • Intake of the prescribed anti-inflammation or over the counter pain relievers
    • You can also use either the bag of frozen peas or the ice bags

     

    • Do not strain yourself

    The doctors will restrict you from performing activities that may lead to excessive strain. The strain will eventually lead you to sweat which may dislodge the transplanted hair grafts.

    • Consider ACell+PRP

    This will help your transplanted grafts to survive. Also, it will help to reduce scar tissue formation.

    • Apply Rogaine

    The application of rogaine on the transplanted hair is significantly useful since it helps in:

    • Dilation of the blood vessels
    • Increasing the flow of the blood
    • Nutrient delivery

     

    • Massage

    When your body is getting healed, then the swelling and inflammation are the natural things that may come into existence. But you should not worry about it and take the massaging measure into account. It will help to reduce the swelling and contribute to keep the flow of blood normal.

    • Colouring and contrasting

    The colour of the hair also matters as far as your skin tone is concerned. If you are having a lighter skin tone, then it is advisable to keep the colour of the hair lighter or you can even keep it grey to enhance the scalp visibility. On the other hand, if you are having a darker skin tone, then you should go for the hair colour which is very close to your skin since it will complement your skin and make you appear more personalited.

    • Do not use over the counter products

    If you use over the counter products for the colouring and styling of hairs, the transplanted hair grafts may shed off. So it is suggested to make use of the salon-grade or medical-grade products.

    Lets Conclude

    In the end, we would like to advise on how you can prevent your hair from getting damaged. Making a tight ponytail or regular wear of the extensions can contribute to the destruction of the hair follicles.
