How to Wash Your Hair After Hair Implantation?
What is Hair Transplantation?
What is Hair Transplantation?
Hair implantation is usually performed under local anesthesia. A single treatment session lasts 2 to 8 hours, depending on the number of hairs transplanted. Transplanting 1,000 to 2,000 follicles per session is common, but larger hair removal areas may require up to 4,000 follicles per session. Sessions can last several hours, and many choose to have two or three sessions.
Extreme care is needed for the transplant to be a success
Surgery Day:
After surgery, your head may be bandaged. You can’t wash your head all this time. Saline has to be sprayed every 30-45 minutes to keep the bruises light, and a gentle massage to rub the head and eyebrows is to be done while spraying.

You can return to your usual hair care from today. Wash your hair in the shower while washing your entire head. Squeeze the shampoo into your palm and rub your palms together to create more lather. Use your fingers to apply the shampoo to your head. You can spread the shampoo with your fingertips, but don’t rub or massage it into your scalp. Natural drying is to be followed. Remember to avoid heating tools.
Conclusion
Most hair transplants are successful, but it can take up to nine months for the hair to take root and begin to grow fully. It is not uncommon for transplanted hair to fall out after a few months and then grow back. When the hair grows back, it should look natural as the hair will be transplanted in the direction it usually grows at that point. Most scars are covered with hair and should not be noticeable.
