It is always a good idea to ask your doctor for post operative questions and types of products you can use.  Every doctor has different post operative instructions.

It is best to consult your surgeon for the same. Personally, we do not recommend this to our patients.

Ryan Welter, MD · Answer

Generally speaking, any shampooing is fine 2 weeks after surgery when the grafts are well seeded.

Jeff Donovan, MD, PhD · Answer

Always check with your surgeon if you have specific questions. Provided the crusts are off, there is little one can do wrong at this point. Shampoos don't affect the grafts.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

Wait 3 weeks and then use whatever you are used to. If you want to use it earlier, speak with your doctor
