Normal post procedure:
1. Numbness: As our anesthetics completely avoid any form of nerve block so any nerve related complications wont arise at all.
There might be Numbness or tingling sensation at the top or back of the head, which is normal and would take a few weeks to resolve and it would heal on its own and at times it may take a month or two to completely regain which would not be troublesome at all.2. Natural hair growth: A crust forms on the transplanted hair, which would fall out within 5-8 days from the procedure. Do not get scared as these are not the actual hair; the follicles remain intact in the scalp. This will go on for 2 weeks. New shaft will grow within 4 months and these shafts will be more natural and will continue to grow like natural hair.
3. Use minoxidil:5% Minoxidil with Finesteride is to be started once a day after 14 days of the procedure once the crusts are off.
After this switch to 5% Minoxidil for 5 months post procedure. If the use of minoxidil causes redness or irritation stop using it immediately for a week and
then you may discontinue and we shall plan to start aqueous base or shall start you with other effective molecules which are alternative to Minoxidil.4. Laser light treatment: WE do not advise Laser therapy after hair transplant since its use has not been scientifically corroborated.
It is a 30 min session and is completely a painless treatment.
Have patience:
You need to take a DEEEP Breath when you are impatient in the recovery procedure. It can be disturbing and nerve wracking going
through the phase of shedding and then waiting for the hair to grow!
You might also get acne or pimple on the scalp. In any such case, apply warm soaks and antibiotic ointments to heal it. Consult your doctor too
Don’t panic anyway: You might have a slightly pink scalp, which would eventually heal and there is nothing to be bothered about.
