Although saline can have some beneficial effects on wound healing the lack of it should not effect your results.It is important however to follow the instructions for proper daily hairwashing.

It is best to contact your doctor about post operative care and instructions since each doctor has a different regimen.  Some doctors do not use saline spray.

There is no proof that saline spray Helps the hair growth. If you use the aftercare products that your doctor gave you that would be enough.

Washing hair after a transplantation
Washing your hair after a hair transplantation is an important to survival.  We usually have our patients start spraying hair with lactated ringers with liposomal ATP as well as other growth factors twice a day to help your hair process start ASAP.  Actual hair washing usually takes place several days after the procedure.  There are several advantages to this approach:
