Regular Member Flash10 Posted September 9, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted September 9, 2020 Hey guys, Couple questions for the guys who have had an FUE - My clinic gave me shampoo to use post-op - just curious when it will be safe to return to my normal shampoo - I used Regenpure prior to the transplant. Also, I find when I am talking and laughing with family and friends, after a couple hours the top of my head (recipient area) begins to hurt - is this normal? I am currently just shy of the 2 week mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted September 9, 2020 Administrators Share Posted September 9, 2020 Once your grafts shed, you can resume your normal shampoo routine. It’s normal for some pain in the recipient, nerves are healing, you can expect these sensitivities to subside in a few weeks. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Regular Member Flash10 Posted September 9, 2020 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 9, 2020 Thanks Melvin - good to hear this is normal. Also, any idea when I would be able to start buzzing the sides and back of my head (essentially the donor).. this is usually what i have done to make the top look more dense and full - will definitely be sticking with this during the ugly duckling phase, but just want to know when it will be safe to get a fade.. Thanks man, really appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted September 9, 2020 Administrators Share Posted September 9, 2020 I would wait another two weeks before buzzing the sides again.
