I just had a procedure in the frontal hairline and I am currently on day 7. My doctors instruction were to not touch my recipient area for 4 weeks, but the crusting is really starting to build. It seems most of the other doctors want you to start massaging and removing the scabbing and crusts by the 10-14 day mark. Can I just start removing the crusts gently between days 7-10? I need to attend a funeral now on day 11 post op and can’t having crusting all over my head. Talk about bad timing.
Answer: FUE Hair Transplant I don't recommend touching your surgery area for about a week after surgery. Touching your head afterwards won't cause permanent damage. But also, you should get contact your doctor first and ask for information.

Answer: My surgeon told me not to touch the FUE recipient area for 4 weeks. Is this too long? An experienced hair clinic will have you washing daily and have the crusts gone by day 14. So yes it is ok to do this.

Answer: 4 weeks no touching You have to wash your hair starting 2 days post surgery with a pour cup method to ensure the scabbing is gone within two weeks. I would recommend you contact your Hair Restoration Surgeon to go over post op care protocol as all Surgeons are different.
