When you see this, you do not need to panic or think that hair transplantation did not work. This is a natural process. A few months after the operation, new hair will begin to grow from the roots placed 1.5cm below the skin.

*What about itching after hair transplant? It is very important that your transplanted area stays clean and hygienic after hair transplantation. If itching occurs on the scalp, inform your doctor and ask him to recommend a medicine.

* Can I use hair gel or hair spray or hair dye after hair transplant? Substances such as hair gel, spray or hair dye should never be applied to the transplanted area.
