Swelling the Scalp Before Inserting Grafts?

1. I have heard that another hair transplant firm injects something into your scalp that swells your scalp before inserting the grafts?
2. I also want to get eyelid surgery. Should the eyes or hair come first? How much time should elapse before the second surgery? It would be nice to heal from both at the same time.

1. I do not inject anything into the recipient area to swell the scalp. The doctors who do these injections think that by stretching the scalp with saline, the grafts can be put closer together. I do not believe that this is the case.
2. It might be better to do the hair transplant before the eye surgery, because if swelling occurs after a hair transplant and the eyes were freshly done, that could cause more discomfort. I’d give it about 2 weeks after your hair transplant before you undergo the eyelid procedure.
