How to Wash Hair After The Operation?

• Hair washing after hair transplant should be done carefully. Washing that is not done correctly and in accordance with the rules will damage the hair follicles. You may lose some of the transplanted hair after an incorrect wash.
• After the first wash, the patient can do the washing himself. If you cannot do the washing yourself, you can get help from a person. Thanks to regular washes, the hair roots become stronger and get used to their new places more easily. Generally, it is recommended to wash the hair at least once a day for the first 2 weeks after the operation.
• After the operation, crusting begins in the areas where there are transplanted hair follicles. During the washing, these crusts disappear and the hair follicles breathe.
• A number of preparations should be made for hair washing after hair transplant. When you have hair transplant in our clinic, our expert patient consultations will be explained to you in detail.
• Softening lotion is used in the first wash after the operation. This lotion helps to greatly reduce scaling on the scalp. However, the scalp should not be rubbed and applied lightly while lotion is applied.
• During the first wash, our experts clean your hair with warm water and shampoo. When using shampoo, quite light finger movements are used.
• A soft towel can be used to dry the scalp after washing.
• The dryer can also be used in the drying process. However, care must be taken when using the dryer. Hair should not be dried at very high temperatures. When drying the hair, the hair dryer should be at least 30 centimeters away.
