Regular Member TonyB Posted April 1, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted April 1, 2014 Is it safe to go in the sun before a transplant if you use a high spf on your scalp and/or wear a cap or should it be avoided? Any advice welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Rootz Posted April 1, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted April 1, 2014 Yes, and it is actually advisable to get a nice tan (if possible) in the areas where there will be transplanted hairs. This will reduce the visible redness post op in the recipient area. Just don't get burned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Eman Posted April 2, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted April 2, 2014 I agree with Rootz. I got as much sun as possible to avoid the look of too much redness. It worked, but the redness remained for a good period to time for me. My initial HT thread: done and done!! Check it out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
