Guys

I need an answer for this question.

As I said befor I am having thin hair in the front and top, but not completely bald. Currently I use toppik and it works ok for me.

Now all my colleagues never know i use toppik, or saw me in thin hair. So I am now concerned that after I do the HT will I be able to use toppik immediatley to create the same look that my colleagues know me in.

Best regards

Hani

If you have the recipient area buzzed down (which 9/10 happens) then the toppik will be impossible to apply as there will be nothing to apply it to.

If your surgeon does not buzz down the recipient area then you can apply toppik post op and it can work just as well as pre op but i would recommend not applying anything for 10 days minimum - just to let your scalp/head heal and breathe
Obviously you will say well i will not get my surgeon to buzz me down but understand the reasons why they buzz down and try think long term not short term.

Look up my topic on down time as it might help

Also the "importance of shaving down"


All the best!
