Personalized medical treatment advice on the Internet without a good history and examination is inaccurate and may lead to confusion and misinformation. It is best to contact your surgeon for post surgery issues and care since all doctors have slightly different instructions.

After 2 weeks post op you can use whatever you like to use on your scalp. The restoration clinic should have explained this to you.

Sometimes minoxidil causes dandruff. Do you use minoxidil?  If the dandruff is normal keep wash your hair every day with the baby shampoo. If the dandruff is too much use the Head and shoulder s shampoo twice a week for one month plus the baby shampoo the rest of the days. You can use also conditioners and oils without problem.

Robert Whitfield, MD · Answer

You can use normal shampoo and conditioner at this point.  I would not have any issues with that if you were my client.

You report that you have a dry scalp 40 days after a hair transplant. I think a good quality conditioner will work to help your situation
