I Had A Hair Transplant 3 Weeks Ago And Look Like Hell.

I had a hair transplant 3 weeks ago and the scabs are still present. I can not take off my hat. As an executive of a large company, I took off the first 2 weeks, and had to go to work with a baseball hat on. Having a hair transplant was a terrible decision. Whey don’t you guys tell people like me what to expect? I think you can tell that I am angry as hell.

I am certain that we did not do your hair transplant as our patients are devoid of any major scabs after about a week if washed twice a day. More importantly we make every effort to educate our patients of what to expect.

In fact, my wife (Mrs. Rassman) had a hair transplant in the frontal hairline just a few weeks ago, and the transplant was barely detectable by the first day after surgery. The key to keeping a hair transplant less noticeable is to have a washing program that keeps the scabs off. Most of our patients leave the operating room without much evidence of the surgery because we wash the scalp very thoroughly before leaving the operating room. We have the patient usually come back the next day and we wash their hair ourselves and instruct the patient in the washing process. The old adage that cleanliness is close to godliness, applies here in the post operative care of a hair transplant. Your doctor should have explained this to you.
