Thats a tricky one Spex removing them from your car

Within the next 2-6 weeks, these hairs will begin to shed and the recipient area will appear as it was prior to surgery. The grafts are merely in a resting phase and will begin its growth cycle in approximately 3 months.

I have retained a large number of these hairs. Is this normal?

Johna1a,

How far out from surgery are you? If you are past 2 months and have maintained the grafts and they are growing, then you are a rare (but lucky) breed!

But most patients experiencing shedding between 2-4 weeks though shedding can occur up to 2 months.

How long I need to take a leave from my work for the post HT surgery?
I work as an IT engineer, so not much exposure to heat and dust. kindly advise accordingly.

Two weeks is the norm, but if you can more then take it. Do you have any existing hair on the top of your heed?

Hi Petchski,

My doctor advised me to take a day off and from second day I can resume my work. Is this possible?

I have to drive to my work which is 30 mins from my home. How many days is minimum needed?

Hi, I went to job exactly after 5 days post op. A couple of co-workers may have noticed it but after 10 days no one seemed to noticed it, even very close friends.

From experience - take as long off work as you can - have the time and not need it - than need the time and not have it

Hi Spex,

I'm using your tips just had HT yesterday, with regrds the following points

4. Apply huge amounts of Aloe Vera to both donor and recipient area 5 days after. (2 x a day minimum)

Q - Is that applied after 5 days of the op or for 5 days immed post op?

5. Distilled witch hazel helps with redness (apply 7/8 days post op)

Again is this taken 7/8 days immediately after the op and where can this be got is it a pill.

6. Get on MSM (makes hair grow faster)
Q - What is MSM


Many Thanks

Re MSM, see this:

I started using aloe vera on my recipient area a couple of days after the op. Make sure you use the pure gel, not the moisturiser with alcohol in it.

I didn't use witchhazel. But I did use antiseptic cream on my donor area for a couple of weeks.

Good luck with the recovery - heal well!

Hi IrishNumpty, hope all is well.

1. 5 days after op for as long as you feel required.

2. Start applying it 7/8 days after the op - its a liquid and its available from Boots very cheap.

3. MSM will help speed up growth of native hair - You can get it from Holland and Barrett - take 3000mg a day.

Hope this helps.

Have a good read through this also as it will hopefully help: HT Guide
