Senior Member hsrp10 Posted June 20, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted June 20, 2014 only if your doctor recommends it, stick with the post-op instructions coconut oil is good for dry skin in the recipient area but I think best not to use it this early on go dense or go home Unbiased advice and opinions based on 25 plus years of researching and actual experience with hair loss, hair restoration via both FUT & FUE, SMP, scalp issues including scalp eczema & seborrheic dermatitis and many others HSRP10's favorite FUT surgeons: *Dr. Konior, *Dr Hasson, Dr. Rahal HSRP10's favorite FUE surgeons: *Dr. Konior, *Dr. Bisanga, Dr. Erdogan, Dr. Couto (*indicates actual experience with doctor) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member scooter Posted June 20, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted June 20, 2014 I think day 4 is still early. I waited until around days 8 -10 and it worked wonders for ridding of the crusts. 1st HT 1973 FUT's with Dr.Robert Mcclellan 6/28/2007 *unfortunately I have no info on hair count on my 1st surgery .. 2nd HT 3026 FUT's with Dr. Bernadino Arocha 1/9/2014 1's - 797 2's - 3700 3's - 246 5634 hairs http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/attachment.php?attachmentid=54945&d=1389315686 3026 FUTs 1 day HT#2 post op frontal picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Jotronic Posted June 20, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted June 20, 2014 You shouldn't use anything on your scalp at 4 days post unless it has some sort of antibiotic properties to it because at this stage the incisions are still healing. Coconut oil is medically clean and not to be used on wounds so God knows what you can get into the incisions. It is fine a week or more out to help get remaining scabs off but it is no better then vitamin E oil or any other oil for that matter. Consult your doctor for the final word on this.
