Can I color my hair 3 days before a facelift?

I would recommend hair colour a week prior to facelift.  Typically a 3 to 4 weeks  is required post surgery before hair colour can be safely done.

Yes, prior to surgery is fine, but after surgery you should wait at least 4 weeks or until you get clearance from your surgeon. Good luck!

Thank you for your question. Yes, you can color your hair before having your facelift.  As a matter of fact, we recommend you have this done close to but before your surgery date as you cannot color your hair for 4 weeks after your surgery. Be sure to ask your surgeon, as well, for his/her specific recommendations on this.I hope that this helps!-David Gilpin

Coloring your hair 3 days before a Facelift would be appropriate. We recommend no hair color until 4 weeks after surgery. Good luck!

Thank you for your question.  I advise my patients to colour their hair before a facelift, as you need to wait about 1 month after surgery until you can colour it again. Please follow your surgeons protocol.  All The Best 

  I personally recommend to to colar the hair at least one week before the surgery.  Sometimes the color comes out during the cleaning  and preparation of you face lift.

Thank you for the great question. This comes up a lot in consultations. In my practice, I recommend that patients who routinely color their hair do so about a week before surgery. After surgery, it is necessary to wait about 4 weeks to avoid any of the chemicals used in the coloring process from irritating the incisions or seeping into them. Best of luck moving forward!

I tell my patient to color their hair few days prior to their facelift or 4 weeks after surgery.  I recommend to apply Vaseline to the incision lines prior to coloring your hair.

Although it’s best to check with your surgeon, I allow my patients to color 7-10 days prior and 4-6 weeks after.

 It's probably acceptable to color your hair before facelift procedure, but it's important to wait several weeks after the facelift before coloring your hair. It's always best to check with your operative surgeon about their preoperative regimen.
