5 THINGS THAT SLOW YOUR HEALING PROCESS
Having a hair transplant is the best choice a person with a hair problem can make. Hair transplantation is the answer to many hair problems seen in men and women, such as hair loss, male or female pattern baldness, hair loss or hair loss due to accidents or infections. Hair transplant procedures are known for their high success rates and natural results. Given the fact that post-operative guidelines are strictly followed and proper care is taken, almost all people can achieve the desired natural looking and authentic feeling results. It is very important to take care of the transplanted hair for a while after the operation starts. In order for the hair transplantation to be successful and to make the most of the treatment process, the appropriate care routine and the instructions of the applying surgeon must be followed.
WHAT SHOULD BE DONE AFTER HAIR TRANSPLANT?
After hair transplantation, whether it is eyebrow transplantation , facial hair transplantation or full scalp transplantation, there are some activities and environments that should be avoided as they can be harmful to healing. These are not special activities, but can be carried out in a daily routine.
We have summarized 5 activities that slow or disrupt the healing process after hair transplantation:
STRENUOUS ACTIVITIES
Saç ekiminden sonra ağır egzersizler veya yorucu aktiviteler , ilk iyileşme aşaması için iyi değildir. Yaptığınız faaliyetlere dikkat etmek çok önemlidir, çünkü kan basıncınız ve kalp atış hızınız şişlik riski geçene kadar dinlenme hızında olmalıdır. İşlemden sonra en az bir ay yorucu aktivitelerden veya egzersizden kaçınılması önerilir. Yavaş yürümek veya minimum eforla yapılan aktiviteler daha iyi bir seçim olabilir.
TÜTÜN TÜKETİMİ
Good blood flow is essential for hair growth; This will play a big role in the success of the hair transplant. Tobacco consumption, especially cigarettes, adversely affects the blood flow in the human body. Quitting smoking and other tobacco consumption methods is a wise choice that will not only help you in hair transplantation, but also help you live a healthy life moving forward and perhaps the transformation you are looking for in hair transplantation. Nicotine and other chemicals, which are produced when a person smokes tobacco and often lead to a decrease in the elasticity of blood vessels, block the blood flow required for hair transplants to show results. This may cause the hair transplant to fail .
ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION
Similar to alcohol tobacco, it can interfere with blood flow in the body. Alcohol is as harmful as smoking because alcohol is present in the blood and prevents the necessary nutrients from being delivered to the body part that needs these nutrients for hair growth. Patients should avoid consuming alcohol for several weeks to achieve great results.
NOT CLEANING THE TREATED AREA
Great attention should be paid to the cleaning of the treated area. If the application area is not washed properly, it is not possible to get rid of the scabs. The scabs block the path of newly growing hairs, resulting in improper growth. As Longevita, we provide our patients with the necessary hair products for better recovery and results after the procedure. Although the frequency varies from patient to patient, surgeons generally recommend washing the hair at least once a day for two weeks. During washing, you can gently touch the hair grafts using only your fingertips. Avoid catching the grafts with your nails. You should wash your transplanted area only by tapping slowly and gently, strong rubbing will damage the transplanted grafts.
JUMPING MASSAGE
Start to massage the transplanted area one week after the treatment. Massage will help you get rid of scabs. If this is not the result, please report the situation to the caregiver and continue to gently massage until the clots are gone. This may vary depending on the procedure such as FUT hair transplant .
Each patient is unique, so there may be a different set of guidelines for all individuals and must be followed strictly and carefully for best results. Undoubtedly, hair transplantation is a very important part of the treatment, but aftercare is equally important. The success and result of hair transplantation depends on postoperative care.
