After the FUE hair transplant operation, a bandage will be placed on the donor area and a hair band around the forehead to prevent swelling and potential slight swellings around the eyes and on your face.
Small crusts in the operated area and small red dots on the donor area will appear immediately from the intervention, but will heal completely in maximum 15 days.
Patients may experience swelling or/and mild pain during the first few days after the operation. These symptoms are very normal and can be alleviated by ice packs, hair care and lotions or certain painkillers recommended by the doctor.
Swelling around the face and mainly around the eyes can occur in rare cases during the first days after surgery. In this case, the application of ice to swollen areas is the best and most effective solution.
The swelling will disappear in about 5 days maximum and no medication is mandatory.
Patients are recommended to sleep in a semi-sitting position in order to avoid damaging friction.
