Is it ok to wash hair the next day? Is there any special shampoo required?
Answer: Washing After Hair Transplant I recommend my patients start washing the day after their hair transplant with baby shampoo. I have them wash twice per day for 2 weeks being gentle the first 7 days and advancing to a more aggressive washing procedure. The idea is to stimulate circulation to the grafts, keep the grafted area clean, and start to break free the scabs around the follicles.

Answer: Yes It is always a good idea to follow YOUR DOCTOR'S recommendation and post-op instructions.In general most doctors advocate washing the hair day after surgery.There are no specific shampoos but some doctors use a shampoo formulated with copper peptide.

Answer: Hair washing after transplantation Thanks for your question. We encourage all of our patients to carefully wash their hair beginning the day after the procedure (and we offer this in our office). I suggest that you keep the area moist and pour water gently over the transplanted area. You can lather the back of the head and apply lather to the grafted area, then rinse gently. We usually suggest that patients can rinse more aggressively by the fifth or sixth day post-transplant. --Scott Boden, MD

Answer: Wash It depends on what you mean by wash. Every clinic is unique and you should really discuss this directly with your doctor.
