Itchy after hair transplant - can I use aloe vera gel on my recipient area?

Many people complain of itching after a hair transplant as the skin is dry and there is a lot of recovery of the skin edges after a hair transplant that causes redness and itching. The use of aloe vera gel works well provided it is not used in the first 4-5 days when healing is most active. A good washing routine is important and I generally get our patients to wash their hair daily and use a conditioner on the skin after the wash to soften it and prevent itching, but aloe vera gel can work well.
