Ozge Ergun, MD · Answer

Dear padgolThanks for the question. Typically, it's best to avoid consuming alcoholic beverages for at least 48 hours after surgery. Even if you do consume alcohol, be sure to go easy. I wish you all the best.

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care as each doctor has their unique regimen.  You can drink alcohol as long as it is not interfering with any drugs you are taking.

Tim Neavin, MD · Answer

Unless you are still taking narcotics (which would be unusual this long after the procedure), you can drink alcohol.  In moderation, of course.

Christopher Varona, DO · Answer

Yes you may drink alcohol 20 days after your transplant. On the rare occasion that you are still taking any pain meds or antibiotics, check with your doctor to see if alcohol will interact with these. But in general you should be ok to drink now.

William Woessner, MD · Answer

Yes you can drink any alcohol, eat any foods, wash scalp normally, wear any hat that you prefer and resume any physical activity that you desire by this post op time.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

at 20 days past hair transplant, you can drink what you want, eat what you want, and do all of the exercises you want to do
