I have a 2 year old labrador, when will it be safe having him around after FUE transplant?

Question

He likes to jump towards your face when excited, I'm afraid he might try to lick my implants. He will stay with a friend for a week I think. After that, how bad would it be to be hit by a dog or have my implants licked? Thank you!

Hi,Thanks for your question. After Hair Transplant, It would be great to be super carefull during 7-10 days, not get any trauma. Best Regards.

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

Dogs are not naturally drawn to hair transplants so unless your dog regularly licks your head, it should not be an issue.

Matt Tahsini, MD · Answer

Hello and thank you for your question. It would be best to not let the dog get near your head, either licking or bumping into. I like your idea of someone else keeping the dog for the first week. Best wishes.Dr. T

Just make sure that the doctor doesn't jump on your scalp. Being near a dog should not be a problem otherwise
