Hair Transplant Recovery – What Does It Involve?
Hair Transplant Recovery – What Does It Involve? : Hair transplants are a surgical procedure, which means there will be wounds you will have to heal from after the procedure. But unlike techniques of the past, Follicular Unit Extraction leaves you with minimal trauma because it’s precision does not require strip harvesting your scalp.

Hair Transplant Recovery – The invasiveness of the procedure is key.

The invasiveness depend on the type of the hair transplant method used. It is either a follicular unit strip surgery (FUSS) or Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). The less the skin is disturbed during hair transplant, the better your wounds and faster your recovery.

Both FUE and FUSS could have similar recipient area recovery course depending on the technique of slit preparation used. Both would entail a 1-2 week period of scabbing, a variable period of redness. Ingrown hair or folliculitis formation may herald the onset of growth typically at the 4month mark
