Hi there! It’s great that you’re thinking ahead about your FUE transplant recovery. At 3.5 months post-transplant, you should be well on your way to healing, and your grafts should be securely in place.That said, moderation is key. While having a drink or two and enjoying the festival shouldn’t pose a significant risk to your results, excessive alcohol consumption can potentially interfere with your body's healing process and overall health. Alcohol can dehydrate you and might affect the quality of your hair growth.My advice would be to enjoy the festival but try to keep things balanced. Stay hydrated, and if possible, avoid overindulging. This way, you can have fun and still prioritize the best possible outcome for your transplant.If you have any concerns or need more detailed advice, feel free to reach out before the event!
Hello! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant, and one of the providers at Aesthetic Skin in Winnetka and Chicago. This is a great question. Based on your concerns, if you are planning to consume any alcohol, I encourage drinking responsibly and not in excess in order to maintain best results with your treatment. I hope this helps and best of luck!
At 3.5 months post-FUE transplant, your grafts should be well-established, so occasional drinking and partying won’t significantly impact your results. However, excessive alcohol can dehydrate your body and affect scalp health, potentially slowing down the healing process or growth. Moderation is key—staying hydrated and maintaining a balanced lifestyle will help ensure the best possible outcome for your transplant as it continues to mature.
Hello and thank you for your great question. I love that you're being responsible and checking into this before you do it. Yes you can drink and party BUT in moderation. Lots of alcohol and inhibit the body's healing properly. Have a great time and best of luck to you.Dr. T

Answer by Dr. Arslan Musbeh – Hair Transplant Surgeon At 18 months post-transplant, the donor area should normally have recovered well, even after 2500 grafts. If it appears visibly thin or patchy, it could indicate that the grafts were not extracted evenly (non-homogeneous harvesting) or t...
Hello and thank you for your question. Sadly this does look like a transplant gone wrong. This is one of the risks of getting a transplant done overseas. I hope your donor area is sufficient because you will need another procedure. Best of luck to you. Dr. T
