Healing

Since swelling is a typical component of the process of FUE healing, nearly every single patients experience it. It usually often happens when hair is transplanted from the hairline, temple, or forehead regions. However, if the operation is limited to the crown, there is unlikely to be any apparent enlargement in the face. In any event, swelling will begin in the forehead and gradually proceed down the slopes as gravity takes its course. The brow region will enlarge first, followed by the lower eyelids. The usage of prescribed steroid pills can significantly reduce swelling and assist it to diminish in about 4-5 days. Certain medical issues might cause swelling or bruising to last longer, so talk to Dr. Vinay or your physician about it.

This answer is not the same for any two people because it's all about how people are feeling at ease. Some people are ready to show off their transplants right after they get them, not afraid of showing them off at all. Others are embarrassed and want to keep it covered for a long time. Dr. Vinay understands this completely. Following just one week after the FUE procedure, you can use your own cap if you don't feel comfortable. The scab will break off in 1 to 3 weeks, depending on the individual.

In the following days after your hair transplant surgery at Northwestern Hair, the grafts create tiny areas of scar tissues and scabs. These can be concealed with imaginative style if there is enough surrounding hair. The little scabs may be seen if not, but they do not draw considerable notice. According to Dr. Vinay Rawlani, scabs normally fall out in about seven days or so if the scalp is kept moist and protected from too much sunlight and the elements.

It is generally feasible to return to your place of work the following day after your procedure with Dr. Vinay, depending on the sort of treatment and the type of job you do. During your appointment at Northwestern Hair, your hair restoration expert will go through this with you.

The third day following the treatment, Dr. Vinay recommends that patients clean their heads. Begin by soaking your head in a bowl of water that is kept at about room temperature. At the same time, you could use a mild shower spray. If you're taking a shower, obstruct the flow of water with your hands to reduce the intensity of water pressure. Do not use regular shampoo on your hair. Instead, use baby shampoo. Alternatively, massage your hands together after applying a tiny quantity to the palm of the hand. Don't ruffle your hair. Rather, gently touch your fingertips together in a pressing manner. Fingernails should not be used to catch the grafts. You might wish to include a cup to aid in the grafts' rinsing. Let your hair to air dry completely. Or, pat it dry carefully with a dry towel, being careful not to damage the grafts. Picking or scratching the scabs is not recommended. For the following seven days, wash your head twice a day. In about a week, the scabs from your FUE procedure will come off. After that, you can resume your normal schedule.
