Why get a hair transplant?
Hair transplants are beneficial for people who have experienced hair loss that is not restorable. This means that your hair follicles will no longer produce hair. If you are experiencing this, it’s recommended you seek a professional before considering a hair transplant in Delhi to determine if your scalp can withstand a hair transplant at all.
Benefits/reasons to get a hair transplant in the winter
Getting a hair transplant is a large commitment and takes a considerable amount of time. The best time of year to get a hair transplant is really any season that isn’t too hot, and you will be indoors frequently. As it turns out, for most people, winter is that optimal time of year!
Winter is (obviously) the coldest season of the four seasons making it ideal for hair transplants as the body doesn’t produce excessive amounts of sweat. Let’s break that down.
-
Sweat leads to clogged pores
-
Clogged pores lead to build-up
-
Build up makes it hard for hair growth to come through
-
If hair growth can’t occur, you get a clogged hair follicle
-
Clogged hair follicles are painful and lead to infection
-
The result is damaged hair follicles
When you get a hair transplant, you need healthy hair follicles in order to withstand the transplant. Winter allows the follicles to remain sweat-free and heal properly without worry of sweat or sun damage!
Hair transplant post-care tips
Regardless of the time of year, there are several tips you should follow in order to guarantee a healthy
recovery!
-
Refrain from physical activity: Your surgeon will more than likely advise you to avoid any kind of strenuous or physical activity. The reason being, your body is recovering (it may seem minor, but to the body, no surgery is minor). You need to allow your body the time to heal.
-
Don’t sweat: Sweating can increase your chance of inflammation and infection
-
Avoid washing hair: Until 48 hours have passed! Once 48 hours have passed, you’re free to resume your hair care routine. Just be sure to scrub gently and use simple shampoos and conditioners.
-
Keep your head elevated: For the first 7 days post-transplant. This helps reduce the likelihood of swelling and inflammation along the scalp.
-
Do not dye your hair for at least 4 weeks after your transplant. Hair dye chemicals are harsh on the scalp and can damage the follicles.
Now that you have a better understanding of how to take care of your hair after a transplant, it’s time to consult a doctor about it! Consider getting the transplant done during a cooler season like winter as this minimizes the risk of infection and inflammation. Enjoy your new head of hair!
