Jae Pak, MD · Answer

Sauna should be ok after hair transplant surgery after one month.  If you are concerned it is always a good idea to follow up with your doctor for a recheck and exam.

Grant Stevens, MD · Answer

One month following your hair restoration procedure you are free to do anything you like.  The new grafts are safe and secure in a sauna, swimming, etc. No worries.  Good luck.

Rashid M. Rashid, PhD, MD · Answer

In cosmetic and aesthetic surgery, it is normally said that small site healing takes 3-10 days after which almost nothing can do harm to the site.   So it sounds like you are in the clear.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

Everything should be healed by one month so a Sauna should not hurt your grafts. Continue to be cautiious with the care.

Sheldon S. Kabaker, MD FACS (retired) · Answer

it is likely that no harm would come to your transplants at this late date after surgery.  Grafts are pretty scure after 5 days .
