Hello, Its been 9 days since i have done my FUE transplant. I am not sure when can i take a shower normally? can i massage the grafts area gently so the scabs will fall off? i am just tipping on it, and not directing the shower head on the area. Waiting for an answer please.

Answer: Washing the hair after FUE My patients are instructed very specifically on how to wash the hair post-transplant. This routine does not start until 48 hours after transplant. Patients should always be careful not to pick at scabs or crusts or to traumatize the recipient site in any way until the scabs and crusts are gone after any hair transplant procedure. Be sure to follow your surgeon's specific post-transplant instructions.

Answer: Washing scalp after FUE hair transplant #plasticsurgery We review post-op instructions with our patients before and after their surgical procedures to avoid questions like yours - the transplanted hair follicles are relatively stable in their new locations just 2 days after FUE transplant. We do recommend 'no touch' hair washing of the transplanted zone and regular hair washing of the 'donor site' zone for 10 days after surgery.
