Would wind 1 day after Hair transplant cause grafts to dry out ?

Question

I went out on a windy day after my hair transplant, there was no sun or anything , just some wind , would this cause dryness of the grafts ? And less results ?

Michael Roskies, MD · Answer

The hair follicles are placed in a subdermal plane which is not exposed to the external environment. If you have been keeping the grafts moist as prescribed, it is unlikely to affect their survival and your overall outcome.

Karl Hekimian, MD · Answer

Grafts are very tenuous the first few days after surgery.  Exposure to a strong wind for a long period of time the day after surgery could be a problem.  You should discuss this with your surgeon.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

No, a windy day will not cause the grafts to dry out because the grafts are below the skin and not exposed to the wind
