It’s always better to know what to expect and what planning to make before having the hair transplant treatment. Read on to discover everything you need to know about proper pre-treatment care.

  1. It is crucial to let your hair transplant surgeon know about your health problems and the regular use of medications. We highly recommend filling the consultation form with all necessary details included. A big red flag if a hair transplant clinic accepts you without seeing your medical history.
  2. It would be best to take a break from blood thinners such as aspirin, which you start to have daily three days before the hair transplant procedure.
  3. It would be best to stop smoking for a while as smokers have a slower blood flow to the scalp. This advice will affect the long term result of your hair transplant in Turkey or the UK.
  4. A local anaesthetic will be used in the hair transplant procedure. You should limit alcohol intake 1-2 days before, as interaction with these medications is dangerous.
  5. It is also necessary to visit the hair transplant clinic with a washed and clean scalp. It is highly recommended natural shampoos rather than the ones containing strong chemicals, such as sulphates etc. 
  6. It is also highly suggested to wear more comfy clothes such as shirt-style on the day of the procedure as it is crucial to avoid contact with the hair transplant area.
  7. The hair transplant operation takes 5-6 hours on average. The duration of the hair transplant procedure varies according to the number of grafts to be transplanted. We recommend that you download your favourite shows on Netflix if your clinic does not offer this service.
  8. According to experts, it is also necessary to have a light diet 1-2 days before the treatment. You should not consume too much tea, coffee, or coke on the day of your operation.
