Hair Transplant Aftercare: What to Do After Your Procedure

May 06, 2025
Choosing a hair transplant might feel like a major decision, particularly in Nepal where it can be difficult to know which clinic to rely on.  At Arogin Health Care, we help you through the whole process, ensuring you’re left with not just a natural hairline, but also that confidence you’ve been looking for.

What to Expect After a Hair Transplant

You’ve had the procedure, now what? You have questions about the recovery process, and we’re here to give you the rundown.

  • Mild Pain and Swelling: Right after the transplant, you may feel some mild discomfort at the donor area. It should only last a few days, and painkillers will take care of it. There may also be some swelling on your forehead or face, but it’ll go down within a few days.

  • Temporary Shedding: One thing that often catches people off guard is that your transplanted hair will likely shed after a few weeks. But don’t panic! This is totally normal and part of the process. New hair will start growing in its place in about 3 to 4 months.

When Will You See Result of Hair Transplant?

Everyone’s hair grows differently, but here’s a general timeline to expect:

  • 4 Months: You’ll start seeing noticeable growth.

  • 6-9 Months: Your hair will thicken up and become much more visible.

  • 12 Months: This is when the full results come in: your hair will be thicker, denser, and look great.

Trust us, the boost in confidence is real! By the time you hit 12 months, you’ll look like a brand new person.

What to Avoid After Your Hair Transplant

Follow a few guidelines to make your recovery smooth. Here’s what to avoid:

  • No swimming for at least 14 days.

  • Avoid alcohol for the first 7 days.

  • Stay away from dusty areas for two weeks.

  • No sun exposure to your scalp for long periods.

  • Don’t touch or scratch the transplanted area.

  • Avoid intense exercise for at least a week.

I know it seems like a lot, but trust me these steps are necessary to help you heal properly and get the best results.

Caring After the Hair Transplant

Post-transplant care is crucial for ensuring your hair grows back healthy and strong. Here’s how to take care of it:

  • First Week: Use the special cleaning solution we provide to clean your scalp. This will help you stay hygienic and promote healing.

  • After 7 Days: You can start gently washing your hair with a mild shampoo, just don’t scrub too hard!

  • Haircuts: You can start trimming your hair after about 3 months, but be careful with tight combing or harsh styling during the first few weeks.
