Rahal Hair Transplant Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Alberts, I was about to ask how long ago you had your hair transplant procedure however, I see that Melvin already answered that question below. That being said, since you are 3 months post-op, even if the scalp massage didn't feel good, you don't have anything to be concerned about regarding your transplanted hair. Truthfully, the new transplanted hair follicles are deeply rooted and already by day 7, you would have to get them surgically removed to get rid of them. Your hair transplant is definitely safe. But I recommend getting a new massage therapist :-).

Senior Member JohnCasper Posted March 10, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted March 10, 2022 I'm curious to know if the anesthesia had completely worn off by the 3rd month? Some folks have that numbing feeling for many months and longer (including me). Glad you had a good massage experience.

The local wears off .....the numbing feeling you may experience after the fact has nothing to do with it. This is typically caused by the doctor going in too deep and inadvertently cutting nerve endings. Eventually they reconnect and the numbing feeling goes away. The original post is interesting for another reason. We know blood supply to the head can actually have a positive effect on transplants. I am wondering if ongoing massages to the scalp could actually have any impact. Patient Consultant for Dr. Arocha at Arocha Hair Restoration.
