Post Op FUE. Was it right that I was prescribed vitamin e?

Question

Hi, I had a FUE of 2729 grafts one month ago, as advised by doc. i visited them after a month, after checkup they said all ok, and they prescribed me the below medicines for 6 months. -Perfectil - 1 daily -Hair Max Plus 5% minoxidil spray. - Twice a day -Vitamin-E oil - twice a week I never see anyone using vitamin e oil after hair transplant especially FUE. Doctors/Surgeons or anyone having the same experience please confirm and share your knowledge/experience.

Every doctor has their own post operative care and plan.  There is no right or wrong.  If you trust your doctor to perform your surgery, you should trust your doctor's advice for post operative care.

Vitamin E is fine to use following a hair transplant.  Some believe it helps with the healing.  After one month, you don't really need help with healing in my opinion.  The oil can also help remove any scabs you have on the top.  You shouldn't have any of these at this point either.  It's fine to use, but the benefits will be minimal.

Vitamin E will not hurt the recipient area, but speak with your doctor before using it. A good hair transplant will grow no matter what you do or don't do

Each doctor has their own post op care regiment. You need to follow your doctors advise. Vitamin E oil does no harm, and it's usually used for wound healing. it's safe to use but won't help with hair growth.
