how long after hair transplant surgery can I cut (carefully) my recipient area with hair trimmer?
Answer: Hair Transplant Dear s...nThanks for the question. Although you do want to protect your scalp from the sun after surgery, avoid wearing hats for the first couple weeks. You can get back into the routine of getting a haircut about three weeks after your surgery. If you dye your hair, you can do so again at the end of the first month. I wish you all the best.

Answer: Cutting hair after hair transplant I recommend to cute hair 15-20 days after hair a transplant with scissors only. To shave with machine, not before 6 months on the donor area and transplant area.

Answer: Haircut post-op If you have crusting, the hair can be damaged up to 9 days post-op. If there are no crusts, the grafts are pretty set at 3 days. Washing hair frequently in the first few days reduces crusting. SO for your purposes, if you have crusts, wait 9 days to clipper your hair. If not crusting happened (because you prevented it with frequent washing post-operatively) you can cut it as early as 3 days.For future reference, here is the histological study which demonstrates when grafts are "grafted."

Answer: Haircut after HT Hello! Thank you for your question. I suggest my patients not to have any hair cut until they are 3 weeks post op. 3 weeks after the surgery they can cut their hair, but only with scissors. For machine its better to wait at least 15-20 weeks for the donor area, but transplanted area better not to shave yet, until the final results.
