I'm getting 2,200 grafts in January and can only take off 4 days of work. I have a descent amount of coverage when I push my hair foward. I'm Trying to keep this as low key as possible. Does any one know how soon I begin to use hair fibers to help me camoflauge the procedure with out harming the grafts? I have been told by my doctors rep after 4 days. Thanks

jleb,

 

In these matters, I prefer to err on the side of caution. Personally I would wait a minimum of one week before applying concealers to the recipient area. By that time the scabs should have fallen.

With Toppik and/or Nanogen you can get away with applying them sooner than with dermmatch. But like Newhair and Plunge said, let your scabs fall off first.
