On Thurs, I got 1500 grafts (FUE) transplanted. Today (Sunday), I showered for the first time. As directed by my doctor, I mixed baby shampoo (maybe too much) into a bowl of water, and then I poured the mixture over my head. Then, I poured a bowl of straight water over my head to rinse. Afterwards, I felt as though some shampoo still remained. (I'm not sure.) I don't know what to do. I'm afraid to pour more water over my head, because what if too much water pouring causes the grafts to dislodge?
Answer: Post Neograft hair washing Gently pouring water over the head to wash away residual dilute shampoo is completely safe.It is always best to follow the instructions/protocols as established by your Neograft provider. That being said, it sounds like you have been following protocol and should do fine.As always discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS) with experience in hair restoration.

Answer: Rinsing I recommend gently rinsing the day after a hair transplant. Don't allow the shower stream to directly strike your head. You should be ok at 4 days to rinse thoroughly by using a bowl.

Answer: Washing hair after neograft (FUE) surgery You are 4 days following NeoGraft hair transplant. If you still have shampoo in your hair following poring diluted baby shampoo in your hair, continue with clear water until the shampoo is washed out of your scalp completely. Gently poring the water on your scalp should not hurt the grafts.

Answer: You are fine! 48 hours after your procedure, it is safe to GENTLY RINSE your hair. As long as you gently rinse with warm water, you will not dislodge any grafts. Hope all turns out well!
