The recovery period of a hair transplantation procedure is quite less. Immediately after the hair transplantation procedure, the patient has to perform certain rituals of cleaning his donor and spraying his recipient area with saline water for the next seven days. After the seventh day, He will have his first head wash. He can come to the hair transplantation clinic to get his daily donor cleaning done or he can choose to do it at home. It is very simple, and it does not require a lot of effort. It is very important that the donor cleaning is done daily.

After the hair transplantation procedure, the patient is expected to clean his donor with be to dine scrub daily in the morning and then wash it off with saline water. In the evenings it is not necessary for the patient to wash the donor with betadine scrub. In the evenings wash the patient must wash donor area with the saline water.

Fucidin cream is provided that has to be applied after washing and drying the donor area both times in the evening as well as in the morning.

The recipient area does not take a lot of maintenance. The transplant patient must ...
... be careful not to bump his recipient area or scratch the recipient area in any manner. Hence, it is advised strictly that the patient do not touch the area and sleep in positions where the recipient area does not touch the pillow. The patient must also be careful while getting in and out of the car or similar doors.

The recipient area requires to be sprayed by saline water every two hours during the day. It is not required for the patient to spread the recipient area with saline water when he is sleeping. Often there is a misconception that the spraying is also supposed to be done at night and hence it causes discomfort to the patient. When sleeping the patient is resting and therefore no saline water spraying is required. However, during the day this procedure must be followed strictly. This procedure helps in keeping the scabs soft and prevents them from going brittle. It is helpful during the head wash session, and the scabs come off easily without much effort.

An array of caps is also given to the patient. A new cap is given for each day until the 7th day. The patient must wear a fresh cap after washing his donor every morning. The caps are surgical caps and are loose and do not tighten on the recipient area. The use of these caps prevents pollutants and dust particles from settling on the recipient area.

The washing of the donor area, the use of a new cap everyday to cover the scalp, the spraying off the recipient area every two hours during the day etc are measures taken to prevent any form of infection or pollution on the scalp after transplantation.

The patient could also have facial edoema or swelling on the forehead two to three days after the transplantation procedure is completed. It is nothing to worry about and the patient does not have to visit the hair transplantation clinic for the purpose of reducing the edoema. The swelling is due to the fluid that has been injected along with the anaesthetic on the scalp. The gravitational pull causes the fluid to flow towards the eye sockets down the forehead and therefore it looks like there is a swelling. There are simple exercises that can help reduce the swelling. For example, the patient can place stump on his glabella which is the centre point of the two eyebrows and slide his fingers across the eyebrows pushing the fluid downward towards the cheekbones. The fluid flows towards the cheekbones and dissolves into the face. It is nothing to worry about.
