After about day 10, I'll need to make a 'public' appearance, and I would like to appear as I did "before" the procedure. I know the hairs will fall / shed naturally, but I wanted to proceed with shaving so that the hairs appear to grow in naturally over the next 6 months to a year, rather than them "appearing" (read: implanted) overnight.
Answer: Ask your doctor Shaving the recipient area days after a hair transplant surgery may be an issue with your doctor. If you really must shave, it really depends on how you have healed and it should be at the discretion of your doctor's recommendation.

Answer: Shaving after facial hair transplant surgery By your question, I am assuming you had hair grafts inserted into your beard area, and not removed from there via FUE. My advice to my patients is that after 10 days and for the first month they should avoid using a razor, since irritation and ingrown hairs may occur. During this time, they should use an electric shaver, as it is more gentle with the skin. They should also use a shaving cream designed for people with sensitive skin to soften the hairs before shaving and to help with the shave, and avoid after shave lotions that contain alcohol. A moisturizing after-shave lotion with aloe, however, is soothing and it will not hurt. But you should ask your surgeon about his routine, as it varies among different people.
