After Operation
The most important stage of the hair transplantation process is post-operation care. There are several factors you need to pay attention to after a successful operation. How you sleep after following the instructions given to you to achieve a natural look can greatly affect your comfort and the results of hair transplantation. You should keep your head slightly elevated while sleeping for the first few nights after surgery. This position will help reduce swelling on your scalp and make the post-operative period more comfortable. Be careful not to cause any friction in the hair transplanted areas to prevent the transplanted grafts from falling out and irritating the area. If you have a welt, try to sleep on your back for the first few nights to protect the injured area. Additionally, you should be careful not to sleep face down to protect the transplanted hair grafts and the new hairline.
