Hair washing technique after hair transplant

I  give the patient a surgical sponge that has no soap in it. The patient then wets his recipient area with softly running water. Any good shampoo can be used with the sponge.  Put shampoo into a small bowl of water and then using the sponge, make a lot of suds so that it fills with shampoo. Then with a rolling motion (back to front, not rubbing), press the sponge on the recipient sites so the soap from inside the sponge squirts on the grafts as you press on the sponge holding a mild pressure on the grafts. A back to front rolling motion is best.  This process is repeated until all of the crusts are off provided that it is started the day after the surgery. If there are some persistent scabs, use a Q-tip dipped into the bowl.  Roll the a-tip over the scab until it comes off.  The cotton in the Q-tip will pull off the scabs as you roll in over the scab.  If you wait too long, the crusting (scabbing) gets fixed to the scalp and then there is a new problem, how to get off the crusts that have been there for a few days as these grafts are then fixed to the scalp. If you pull them off at this point in time, the grafts will come out.  Read this article: https://newhair.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/mp-2006-graft-anchoring.pdf
