Considering that you just had your transplant done yesterday I would not recommend having a massage the next day. The grafts have not yet adhered to the sites in the scalp where they were placed and could easily be dislodged. It takes at least five days for the hairs to be permanently attached. Even after this period of time you should be careful doing any vigorous activity as the sites are still healing. In most cases you may return to any activity you would like two weeks after your transplant was performed. Your surgeon may have specific instructions regarding activity after your transplant and it would be best to discuss this with them.
Dear Brent, I would strongly advise against having a body massage so soon. The grafts have not yet anchored properly, so no point taking any chances as you might dislodge the grafts accidentally. In my opinion it is best to wait for a week. Again if in doubt, you should contact your hair transplant surgeon.All the best
Depending on the extent and areas of transplant, it is possible that grafts could be displaced during positioning and turning. Given that you are only one day out from surgery, this is a question best answered by your surgeon.

It shouldn't be an issue to have a body massage 1 day post-op. Just be careful not to rub the transplant area and to be extra careful. It is always wise to ask your doctor these types of questions.

To answer your question, yes it can be done. I would suggest that you seek an in person assessment from a specialist and see if this is the best option for you.
I usually let my patients use minoxidil a week after hair transplant surgery. However, I am not familiar with the Herbal H product, so perhaps your surgeon may know more details and hence made his/her recommendation. Best to trust your surgeon and follow his/her instructions.
It looks like you've had some healing problem. Did the incision on that sided open up? It looks like there is still some unhealthy tissue on the upper side of the scar. Hopefully your surgeon has you putting some topical agent to prevent infection and promote healing. Once the area has hea...
Dear Abcsandy, and thank you for sharing your experience. I can suggest you to be patient, post-up results in the crown area show up a bit slower than front and mid scalp. It can improve up to 18 months post ht.
