Essential Hair Care Tips After Your Transplant
At Follicle HT Hair Transplant Clinic in Toronto, our board-certified surgeons, Dr. Mark Korman and Dr. Philip Solomon are experts who have performed thousands of hair transplant procedures for patients across Canada. After each hair transplant they perform, they stress the importance of proper aftercare in achieving optimal results. By following their expert advice, you’ll experience a smooth recovery and hair growth.
In the first few days after the procedure, keeping your scalp clean is one of the best things you can do. With that said, it’s important not to go overboard with cleaning. Using harsh shampoos or excess scrubbing can affect results. Drs. Korman and Solomon will give clear instructions on how to gently rinse your scalp without disturbing the newly transplanted follicles.
Protecting your scalp from sun exposure is also important. Your scalp will be more sensitive after the procedure, so if you spend time outside, we recommend wearing a hat and staying out of the sun. Strenuous activity or heavy exercise should be avoided for at least a week, as excessive sweat can irritate the healing areas.
In the weeks following your hair transplant in Toronto, you may notice the formation of scabs or even the loss of transplanted hair. This is normal! There’s no need to worry! This hair loss is known as “shock loss” and is only temporary. Hair regrowth will begin shortly after this phase, so be patient. After six to twelve months, you will start to see the final results of your hair restoration.
At the Follicle HT Hair Transplant Clinic in Toronto, Drs. Korman and Solomon stress the importance of waiting and following their advice on post-operative care. Hair restoration takes some time and doesn’t happen overnight. Following their expert recommendations, will give your transplanted hair the best chance at growing healthy, firm and natural-looking. Trust the Follicle HT team to guide you every step to renewed confidence and fuller hair.
