4th night started a different kind of pain (only on donor area), like a pressure, soreness, I woke up all night sporadically. 5th night I slept a little and then I couldn't sleep anymore for the next 5 hours due to the pain. My doctor told me to take Tylenol 750mg every 6 hours. It's more painful laying down than standing up. Tried a lot of sleeping positions (semi-sitting, etc) hard to make it work. Laying on my back is worse. Maybe if I apply an ice pack on the donor area?
Answer: Hair Transplant Dear madd86 Thanks for the question. A hair transplant operation can take four hours or more. Your stitches will be removed about 10 days after surgery. You may require up to three or four sessions to achieve the full head of hair you desire. Sessions occur several months apart to allow each transplant to fully heal. I wish you all the best.

Answer: Soreness in donor area 5 days after transplant In your situation, a pain killer with anti inflammatory effect may be more effective than Tylenol which has not anti inflammatory properties. Contact your doctor for management.

Answer: Pain There could be same pain in donor area, especially first week after surgery, due to contraction. If it is not bearable level, aloe vera gel can help you with that but still it is useful for you to consult your doctor.

Answer: Pain after FUE Although the majority of our FUE patients experience little or no pain/discomfort after the procedure,some do have more significant discomfort for 1-2 weeks.Tylenol or Ibuprofen should suffice to control pain during that period.
