Answered by Pankaj Kamble
Hello, The precautions to be taken after hair transplant surgery are:
- On the night of the surgery and for the next few nights, sleep with the head elevated.
- Follow the medication prescribed by the doctor.
- You can use a cap, to protect the transplanted area from direct sunlight when you go out.
- Avoid alcohol and smoking for 2-3 weeks after the surgery or as directed by your surgeon.
- Do not do heavy exercises and workouts immediate after the day of surgery.
- Moreover, if you undergo FUE or DHI hair transplant surgery it will take approximately 1 week to recover and you can resume your work within a week. But, if you undergo FUT procedure it will take 2-3 weeks to recover.
