To achieve the desired results in hair transplantation, in addition to the expertise of the doctor and the hair transplant technique, another crucial step that cannot be overlooked is the "post-transplant care." This is especially true during the "first 7 days – a critical period for hair care after transplantation." This period is vital to ensure that the newly transplanted hair does not fall out prematurely. Since the hair grafts have just been relocated, the hair follicles are still not fully anchored and strong in the scalp. Any impact on the transplanted area during this time may cause inflammation of the hair roots, leading to the risk of hair loss.
On the first day after hair transplantation, the newly transplanted hair will appear as short stubs, and there may be mild swelling, or possibly no symptoms at all, depending on the individual. A follow-up by the doctor will begin immediately on this day. The patient will need to come to the clinic for a hair wash and receive guidance on how to clean the hair properly. They will also be given a set of products from Namnin to take home for self-care. After undergoing the NEAT hair transplant technique, self-care is not complicated, but extra attention to specific matters is necessary, such as:
- Do not scratch, pick, or do anything that may disturb the newly transplanted hair.
- For the first 2-3 days, it is recommended to sleep with the head elevated to reduce swelling and avoid sleeping positions that could cause the transplanted hair to fall out (e.g., if the hair transplant is on the forehead, sleep on your back and avoid sleeping on your side).
- Wear a button-up shirt instead of pulling anything over your head during the first 3-5 days after the transplant.
- Avoid exposure to heat sources such as hairdryers, hot water, saunas, hot yoga, or direct sunlight.
- Refrain from heavy activities or intense exercise that may disturb the hair follicles.
In addition to these recommendations, the product set provided by Namnin will help make the cleaning and care of your newly transplanted hair easier, more convenient, and safer. The set includes:
BALLVIC Transform Shampoo
A spray shampoo specially designed for post-hair transplant care. It is highly gentle, moisturizes the scalp, strengthens hair follicles, and improves the adhesion rate of transplanted hair. Use it once a day by spraying it evenly over the scalp, focusing on the transplanted area. Leave it for 2-3 minutes, then rinse with water (avoid using warm water). It can be used immediately after the hair transplant.
BALLVIC Transform Solution
A spray that reduces inflammation, relieves itching, and reduces swelling instantly. It helps prevent scabbing during the first 3-5 days, moisturizes the scalp, nourishes the hair, and enhances the retention rate of transplanted hair. Spray it evenly over the scalp, focusing on the transplanted areas. It can be applied every 2-3 hours without the need to rinse.
Elixir Hair Serum
This serum nourishes both the hair and scalp. Spray it directly onto the scalp, focusing on the transplanted areas, 1-2 times a day. Start using it approximately 7 days after the transplant.
If the patient follows the doctor's recommendations, after 7 days post-hair transplant, the hair roots will become stronger and begin to anchor into the scalp. This process will continue as the hair follicles firmly embed themselves from 14 days onwards.
In addition to the post-hair transplant care that Namnin prioritizes, those who undergo the NEAT hair transplant technique at Namnin will experience a remarkable journey from the first day to one full year after the procedure.
Starting with consultations, treatment planning, and the actual hair transplant process, patients will be involved at every step, including designing the most suitable hairline for their facial features. On the day of the transplant, patients will have the opportunity to witness Dr. Nin perform the procedure firsthand, with the option to engage in conversations or enjoy a movie or music throughout the transplant session.
Most importantly, Dr. Nin will personally provide guidance, advice, and follow-up care for up to one year after the hair transplant. You can be confident that every stage of waiting for the new hair growth will be supported by Namnin, ensuring that you experience the full results of your hair transplant alongside us.
