Can I use minoxidil 5% right after hair transplant?

I usually advise my clients to start using Minoxidil 5% fifteen days after the hair transplantation.

It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care as each doctor has their unique regimen. 

This is something you should talk to your doctor about as part of your overall long term treatment plan. However, generally it's safe to use Minoxidil once all the scabs/crusts on your scalp are gone- approximately two weeks.

Tarek, 
You can continue using both minoxidil and finasteride after your transplant -- assuming your clinic agrees and you are side effect free. You will need to temporarily stop the minoxidil immediately after the transplant while the grafts are "anchoring." This time period varies between clinics. I tell my patients they can resume rubbing minoxidil on the scalp at 10 days post-op. The finasteride can be taken normally without any "stopping periods" before, during, or after the transplant.

Rogaine or minoxidil can certainly be used after a hair transplant.  Particularly if you are new to minoxidil you may get some redness or flakiness of your scalp.  We advise our patients to wait until 10 days after a transplant to restart minoxidil.  This may avoid some of issues of scalp irritation.

The finasteride should be use immediately after a hair transplant but wait a week on the use of the minoxidil as it is an irritant
