Moments To Months After A Hair Transplant Surgery

·         Patient Selection

The surgery procedure can start from the moment a person decides to have the hair restoration surgery, and chosen to be a candidate. Usually, patients are evaluated at large by their medical history and general health, any infectious and allergic tendencies, hair loss evaluation, nowadays  surgeons conduct scalp biopsy tests to ensure that the patients gets the prominent hair growth they have invested for the swanky hair transplant price.

·         What To Expect

Patients usually aim or expect to have a “head full of hair”, which is many times broken down to the factual factors of donor density, donor and recipient dominance and scalp laxity to allow a potential of not more than a sheer coverage of their baldness, with a close cropped hairstyle. If patients understand and are okay with this, they happen to build realistic expectation, which is very important.Hair Transplant Before and After Images create a scene much to manipulate the realistic expectation in vulnerable patients. Sometimes surgeons abet and even use this kind of manipulation for greater leads. Basing or expecting a result from looking at the before and after images should be avoided by patients, and use the images to rather get an idea of the result.

·         Preparing For Surgery

There are sundry technicalities of preparing for the surgery than what the usual pre-operative instructions page in the clinic’s website indicate. Things become more personal in the process.

Stuff like, alternation of certain drugs, such as blood thinners, even protein supplements, or prostate disorder drugs might cause interference in the possibility of getting the surgery. Some surgeons even workout the surgery without refraining on important drugs. For the purpose, mention each and every drug you take, and the purposes, on Real Self, or other social forums. Or, if you do not have internet connectivity, then personally consult a general practitioner alone with a number of hair restoration surgeons simultaneously, never base your decisions on consulting with one surgeon.

·         On The Day Of The Surgery

Have light breakfast, but don’t have coffee or tea or any caffeinated drink, including Coke, or emulsified fruit juice (the carton fruit juice). Wear a button down shirt and flat comfortable shoes.

Sometimes patients feel nauseated at the sight of the hospital on the day of a surgery, while they have been perfectly alright through the consultation and evaluation process. It normal to feel that way, and if you like to bolt, you can, you might have to pay a nominal cancellation fee, but don’t force yourself into this life changing procedure if you are suddenly not feeling like it.

·         During Surgery

You are bound to feel a pinch at the back of the scalp, which presumably the only pain you suffer. The surgeons use fine needles; sometimes even drill needles that cause nothing more than a pinching even ticklish sensation. Don’t panic.

Stories about the anaesthesia wearing out in the middle of the surgery are many times true. But even then, these cases are rear and are typically happen with amateur and unrecognized clinics. Once you have given it the effort to choose a well recognized surgeon, and then take the effort on trusting him/her at the operating table or chair, for this matter.

·         Immediately After Surgery

You will feel dizzy and heavy, and some patients feel nauseated. These are normal symptoms of the surgical trauma there’s nothing to worry or panic about. Your forehead will be covered with a bandana like white bandage, while the top of the head will remain open which you can cover with a clean silk scarf or baseball hat that won’t stick to the scalp and the surgical wounds or damage the new hair grafts.

·         The Night OF Surgery

The first consecutive nights after the surgery are going to be much discomforting, as you have to sit up all the time and not tilt or lie your head down. You must even sleep with your head up, probably with the support of pillows for back rest. It might be unbearably or bearably painful as the anaesthetics wear off. The feeling may be much like someone pulled your hairs too hard. Pain relievers and antibiotics are prescribed for use if necessary.

·         Showering After The Surgery

Since you can’t tilt your head and not use shower on your head, you should use the cup your palms or a bathing mug, to pour cold or lukewarm water over your head. This may be carried on for days or up till a week as the surgeon recommends.

·         First Hair Growth

The first emergence of hair growth can be expected to emerge at the end of 3weeks it may take more time, for up to more than a month.

·         Shock Loss

Every patient dreads this thing since Wayne Rooney hair transplant before and after, since not everyone is capable of paying the £30,000 hair transplant price. The code word is to not panic, and lay all the stress upon the surety of hair growth in the times before the surgery. Shock loss usually is a temporary thing, as the hair follicles are traumatized or shocked with the unnatural replacement and shed off. But this doesn’t cause inflammation to the dermal papillae which makes hair regrowth after shock loss a plausible situation. Topical hair loss medications prove much helpful in the regrwoth of hair post shock loss.
