Is it okay to shampoo daily after a hair transplant?

Greetings,
Washing your hair after a hair transplantation is an important step for restoration.  We usually have our patients start spraying hair with lactated ringers with liposomal ATP as well as other growth factors twice a day to help your hair process start ASAP.  Actual hair washing usually takes place several days after the procedure.  There are several advantages to this approach:

You should not neglect personal hygiene after a hair transplant surgery. Wash your hair everyday.  Most doctors advise you wash your hair everyday.  It is always a good idea to follow up with your doctor unless there is a reason not to wash your hair.

Your scalp will need to heal before you can resume showering
and shampooing as usual.

During the first two weeks following your procedure, use an
alternative method for cleansing your scalp. The donor and recipient wounds
will be in the process of closing and healing. Chemicals in most shampoos can
be very harsh for the skin and can enter deeper layers. Here is a safer method.


Fill a bowl or pitcher with water. Bend your head over a
sink or bathtub and gently irrigate your scalp as you pour the water. Gently
pat dry with a clean towel.

In about two weeks,
you can then start shampooing your head as normal. These are just general
guidelines. If you have further concerns or questions, speak to your doctor for
more specific recommendations.
