36 days after hair transplant, should I expose my head to sun and dust outside in India?

Question

What are the precautions I would take care off after 36 days of FUE hair transplant surgery according to indian climate of 46 degrees in summer??

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care as each doctor has their unique regimen.  Direct sunlight on a fresh wound can discolor your skin.

Sean Behnam, MD · Answer

It shouldn't be an issue. Just do your best to keep it clean by washing out the dust after, and limit exposure to the sun and use sunscreen since your scalp will be prone to sunburn.

Thank you for asking this question.36 days post any kind of transplant the follicles are completely healed and firmly in place. There is very little that anything can damage the hair follicle. Sunlight and dust wouldn’t cause any problem. Although is it advisable to keep your head covered under direct sunlight. Other than these, there is no specific care which might be needed for the transplanted hair at this stage. Good luck!Regards, Dr. Amit Gupta
