How to Ensure the Survival of Grafts After a Hair Transplant?

There are several factors that affect the graft’s survival after a hair transplant. Usually, the healing process or the time required for the transplanted grafts to settle takes a few days. One needs to be extremely cautious for a few weeks after a hair transplant, as these grafts do not get fixed immediately after a hair transplant.

If one is interested in undergoing a hair transplant, one may wonder how long it will take for the grafts to become secure. In this blog, Dr. Urvashi Chandra, a leading hair transplant surgeon at Chandra Clinic, the best hair transplant clinic in Delhi, will cover everything surrounding that section.

What are the Factors that Affect Hair Graft Survival?

 Following factors influence graft survival:

  • Donor scalp issues

  • Surgery day conditions

  • Damage to the grafts

  • Dehydration

  • The surgical technique used

  • Blunt trauma

  • Graft storage issues.

Tips to Care for the Hair Grafts After a Hair Transplant Procedure

Taking the utmost care of the grafts in the days and weeks after a hair transplant is the key to their survival. Here are a few things that one should and should not do to ensure the survival of grafts:

Do’s

  • Wash the hair daily for five days after the procedure to help with healing and removing scabs.

  • Keep the grafts moist for the first 4-5 days after the surgery.

  • Follow a healthy diet.

  • Wear a hat for around two weeks after the procedure to protect the hair grafts from environmental factors.

Don'ts

  • Never rub the hair with a towel made from fabric. Instead, let it dry naturally.

  • Avoid scratching or rubbing the scalp.

  • Avoid wearing beanie hats.

  • Do not rub the implanted grafts when showering or grooming.

  • Don't engage in any intense physical activity within the first 14 days after a hair transplant, as the hair follicles may not have healed.

  • Don't have any other kind of surgery or treatment on the scalp for at least three months after the hair transplant.

  • Don't expose the hair to direct sunlight for at least two weeks after the hair transplant.

  • Sleep in an appropriate sleeping pattern, as suggested by the hair transplant surgeon.
