Senior Member HairEnthusiast101 Posted May 9, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted May 9, 2022 How long after would it be safe to get another surgery like liposuction or other forms of plastic surgery after HT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Fue3361 Posted May 11, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted May 11, 2022 Good question. I personally would want 6 months, which I fee like is a good time point where most of the grafts have sprouted. I hate the idea of putting my body through heavy stress with unborn hairs still lingering haha! But the real answer is probably much sooner than that. 1 Check out my journey here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member pkipling Posted May 12, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted May 12, 2022 I don't know if there's a general rule for this, so it's something I would suggest running by both your hair transplant surgeon and the surgeon of the future procedure to get their input. There could be various specific circumstances at play here that they would both consider. There's no literature to my knowledge to support that you would have to wait an extended period of time, though I can't imagine you'd need to wait more than three months. However, as mentioned above, for your own peace of mind, it might be beneficial to wait until a significant amount of your results have appeared. Surgery can be stressful enough as it is, so if you can wait until you're mostly on the other side of the HT before diving into another one, I think that'd be best. That's what I would do anyway. 1 I am a patient advocate for Dr. Parsa Mohebi in Los Angeles, CA. My views/opinions are my own and don't necessarily reflect the opinions of Dr. Mohebi and his staff.

No thank you for response I was thinking about 6-8 months due to stress or going under anesthesia. I can easily wait a year too I just didn’t know if it was safe a year after. How long before HT could I do something like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
