Question

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

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

David Deutsch, MD · Answer

There should be no reason why you cannot fast during the day,2 weeks following a procedure.Only severe,prolonged fasting with protein malnutrition will impact hair growth and graft survival.

Ilhan Serdaroglu, MD · Answer

Yes, certainly you are able to  fast during Ramadan . it would not effect badly on grafts.Most of my patients takes their medication  after evening meal (iftar) during Ramadan and sahur.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

Fasting in a healthy man who had a hair transplant is not a problem provided that it is not for a very prolonged period.

Michael Meshkin, MD - Account Suspended · Answer

You should be healed by now and you can fast without worrying about healing or your hair transplant.
