Frequently asked questions

Yes, many patients can return to work on the same day after an FUE hair transplant. However, it's advisable to avoid strenuous activities and follow any specific post-operative care instructions provided by your surgeon to ensure optimal healing.
After your FUE hair transplant, it's advisable to wait at least 6 to 12 months before considering additional treatments. This allows for proper healing and assessment of results. Always consult with your surgeon for personalised recommendations based on your individual recovery progress.
After a FUE hair transplant, it's advisable to sleep with your head elevated for the first few nights to minimise swelling and protect the grafts. Avoid sleeping on your stomach or side to prevent disturbing the newly transplanted hair follicles during the initial healing phase.
After an FUE hair transplant, it’s advisable to avoid flying for at least 7 days to minimise the risk of swelling and ensure proper healing. Travelling long distances can also increase fatigue, so plan for adequate rest before and after your trip.
