Post-Operative Period

Nurturing Your New Hair with Care

At our clinic, we understand that the post-operative period is crucial for ensuring optimal results and a successful hair restoration journey.

Post-Operative Period: Nurturing Your New Hair with Care

We are committed to providing you with comprehensive care and guidance during this important phase. Once you have completed your hair restoration procedure, your newly transplanted hair needs the utmost attention and care. This time is mainly for your scalp to recover and new hair to grow, so following our recommendations will help yield excellent results.

Daily In-Office Visits

We encourage all patients to return to our office daily up to 10 days post-transplant to take advantage of our services and key wound healing technologies that may significantly impact postoperative healing, graft survival, and comfort levels.

Key features of Covai Cosmetic Surgery’s postoperative experience include:

  • Daily visits for donor and recipient area examination
  • Daily in-office treatments using Red Light Therapy to boost blood supply and minimize discomfort

Comprehensive Postoperative Kit

We provide a post-operative kit containing everything you’ll need to take care of the donor and recipient areas during the postoperative period.

  • Day and night sprays
  • Shampoo
  • Hair serums with copper peptides, growth factors (EGF, KGF), and antioxidants

Wound Care Instructions

Our wound care instructions will be available well in advance of your procedure. Immediately after the transplant, our team will review detailed instructions on how to care for your scalp and new hair, which includes cleaning your scalp, applying medication, and managing discomfort or swelling.

Recovery and Healing

After your procedure, mild discomfort, swelling, or redness is normal and temporary. Our team will guide you on managing these symptoms and provide the necessary tips and products for smooth recovery.

We will provide medications like pain relievers, antibiotics, or anti-inflammatory agents to ensure minimal discomfort. Take them as prescribed to avoid complications and ensure a speedy recovery.

Physical Activity and Rest

After your hair restoration procedure, avoid heavy lifting, sweating, and stress for a week or two. Protect your scalp during your recovery journey, especially when exposed to the elements.

We will schedule regular in-office check-ins to monitor your progress, address any concerns, and ensure the restoration is on track.

Patience and Expectations

Hair restoration is a gradual process. Your transplanted hair will enter a resting phase before re-entering the growth phase. It may take several weeks for the new hair to start growing naturally and blend seamlessly with your existing hair.

Patience is key during this period, and our team will support you throughout, ensuring you receive guidance and reassurance at every step.
