Preparing for a Hair Transplant: Essential Pre-Procedure Checklist
If you're planning for a hair transplant, preparation is key to achieving optimal results. To make your experience as seamless as possible, we provide hotel accommodations and transportation services to ensure you’re comfortable and ready.
1. Follow Your Surgeon’s Pre-Surgery Instructions
Your hair transplant specialist will provide specific instructions tailored to your needs. These guidelines may include medication adjustments, dietary recommendations, and other preparations. Follow these closely to prepare your body for surgery.
2. Avoid Blood Thinners and Certain Medications
Avoid blood thinners, including aspirin, ibuprofen, and certain supplements, as they can increase bleeding during surgery. Ask your surgeon about any specific medication restrictions well in advance.
What to Avoid: Blood thinners, aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, Vitamin E
3. Stop Smoking and Alcohol Consumption Before Surgery
Smoking and alcohol can reduce blood flow, which is essential for healing. We recommend avoiding both for at least a week before and after your hair transplant to ensure the best possible outcome.
What to Avoid: Smoking, alcohol
4. Trim Your Hair if Instructed by Your Surgeon
Depending on your procedure, your surgeon may recommend trimming the hair in the donor area. Follow their guidance to ensure the transplant area is ready for surgery.
5. Rest and Relax Before the Procedure
Getting enough rest is essential for a successful surgery and recovery. A well-rested body manages stress better and promotes quicker healing. Try to get a good night’s sleep for several days leading up to your FUE hair transplant.
What to Do: Prioritize sleep and relaxation
6. Prepare Your Scalp with Gentle Care
Wash your hair with a mild shampoo the day before surgery and avoid any styling products. A clean, product-free scalp helps create ideal conditions for a successful transplant.
What to Do: Use mild shampoo, avoid hair products
7. Wear Comfortable Clothing on the Day of Surgery
Loose, comfortable clothing is best, as it won’t disrupt your scalp post-surgery. Choose a button-down or zip-up shirt to avoid pulling anything over your head.
What to Do: Wear easy-to-remove clothing
8. Take Advantage of Our Transportation Service
