Can I use coconut oil 1 month after FUE transplant?

February 6, 2017
Asked By:vladcristian in Sweden, SE

Hello! I had a FUE transplant for 1 month ago, 3500 grafts. Still a little bit of redness in the recepient area (the front of the head) but no scabs, all clean. I was wondering if its ok to use coconut oil? I read about its positive efects, it improves scalp health, fights infections and fungus, supports hair growth. I am thinking about pure natural cold pressed coconut oil without any chemicals, to apply on the scalp for 30 minutes before shampoo. Could this harm the grafts in any way? Thanks
