Is it OK to wear a cap 5 days after FUE hair transplant?

Some doctors would say wait a week. In general make sure the cap is loose and be mindful when you're taking it off and putting it on and your transplants should be alright.

Wearing a loose fitting hat at 5 days is fine. Try not to let the cap rub on the recipient area until about 10-14 days after surgery. Also be careful putting the cap on and taking it off so you don't inadvertently rub out some of the grafts.
