Jae Pak, MD · Answer

You can you anything and everything you normally would do to your hair after 6 months.  It is always a good idea to follow up with your doctor.

Greg Williams, FRCS (Plast) · Answer

When using any camouflage product to disguise thinning hair it is important to regularly cleanse the scalp to keep it healthy.I suggest to patients that they wait until all scabs and crusts have fallen off after a hair transplant before using camouflage fibres and how long this takes varies from patient to patient. At 6 months post-procedure you should have no problem using Caboki fibres and they are perfectly safe. They should not affect the growth of your transplanted hairs.

Jeff Donovan, MD, PhD · Answer

There are a number of hair fibers on the market nowadays. They are safe to use post transplant. I generally advise to wait one week - but anytime beyond one week they are safe to use and will not affect the transplant.

Caboki is likeToppik, a fiber that sticks to your hair to make it look thicker. At 6 months, I do't see a problem with its use.

Michael Meshkin, MD - Account Suspended · Answer

After the healing period which us usually about a month, you can return to your routine without any worries.  At this point, you should not worry about hairs falling off.  In general we ask our patients to be carefully the first three weeks after the procedure.

Troy Fallon, DO (retired) · Answer

The use of hair fibers is generally safe after all the crusts have fallen off the transplanted hair and you can wash your hair normally.  This is usually about one to two weeks after your procedure.
