Post op shower routine


Recommended Posts

What's the general consensus on when you can return to your normal shower routine after a HT? Is it usually 1 week or 1 month?

 

Also, is it better to shower once/day or once every other day when you return to your normal shower routine? Once a day seems better to clean the grafts, but afraid it might dry out the grafts.

I agree that 7-10 day post-op you can return to your normal shower routine. By that time all the scabs should have fallen off and there is not much you can do to harm anything at that point. Once a day is plenty. If you are concerned about the drying effect of over washing you might eant to consider a sulfate free shampoo.
