I’m at about 6 weeks post op, and since about 2.5-3weeks post op I’ve been using aloe Vera on my scalp every night in the shower. But like an idiot, I didn’t check the ingredients list until today: 92% aloe Vera, and among the other ingredients is clearly labelled ‘ALCOHOL’, along with various other glycols.
I haven’t noticed anything really abnormal; I’d say about 70-80% of the transplanted hair has shed. my recipient area is still slightly red but I’m not sure if that’s due to the alcohol or not. Ironically, every part of my scalp except my recipient area is flaking.
Im worried, could I have done any damage?
