Regular Member theofani Posted May 20, 2002 Regular Member Share Posted May 20, 2002 I'm planning to have my surgery the day before I go to the beach for a week. How long should I wait before going in the water and getting my scalp wet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 22, 2002 Share Posted May 22, 2002 In my opinion (I'm not a doctor)I would wait about 2 weeks. By then the grafts are permanently in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member arfy Posted May 22, 2002 Senior Member Share Posted May 22, 2002 I'm not a doctor either, but I know you need to keep your head out of the sun after surgery, too. Not just for a few weeks (like swimming) but even longer, i believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
