Hair dye after otoplasty: I'm 2 months post-op, do you think it's safe to dye my hair or I should wait a bit more?

Question

Adam J. Oppenheimer, MD, FACS · Answer

Should be safe to dye your hair 2 months after otoplasty. If you are doing it yourself, you are particularly safe. If you are having it done, it would be best for your stylist to know that you had recent ear surgery and to be particularly gentile. Always best as well to double check with your plastic surgeon's office.

I think it would be safe to dye your hair two months after your otoplasty, but it is always best to check with your own surgeon, as he or she may have a different opinion.

Waldemar Merck, MD · Answer

When the wounds have healed, which is normally the case 2 months after the otoplasty, you can have your hair dyed without any worries.
