Hair Transplantation Expectations after FUT

POST-OP	TRANSPLANTED AREA	DONOR AREA
Day 1 After Surgery	Patients are instructed to rest indoors and continue wearing their head bandage.	Possible soreness, tightness or numbness possible but most patients report no pain at this point.
Days 2	Head bandage is removed. Short transplanted hairs, dried blood and redness are visible. Patients may rinse hair according to instructions.	Soreness in the donor area begins to disappear. Some numbness may continue. Start applying anti-biotic ointment to the suture line.
Days 3-6	Scabbing/crusting becomes visible. Possible swelling may move across the nose and around the eyes.	Continue applying anti-biotic ointment to the suture line.
Day 7	Swelling usually has subsided. Redness has mostly resolved.	Most numbness will normally resolve. Continue applying anti-biotic ointment to the suture line.
Day 10	The grafts are permanently adhered in place within the scalp. Remaining scabs can be gently washed off. Patients may return to normal shampooing, brushing and combing.	Patient may stop applying Antibiotic ointment to the suture area.
Days 11-14	The transplanted hairs will begin to temporarily fall out.	Sutures will be removed.
Week 3	The transplanted hairs will continue to fall out. Patient may get a haircut.	Scar will continue to heal and strengthen.
End of Month 1	Most Transplanted hair shafts have fallen out and the patient will look similar to their before photos. Patients may dye their hair if they wish.	Patient may start strenuous activity/weight lifting.
3 months	About 30% of the transplanted hairs are growing.	Any residual numbness in the donor area has generally resolved.
6 months	About 60% of transplanted hairs are growing.	The donor area regains most of its strength.
12-15 months	The final result of the hair transplant can be seen and patients are scheduled for a follow-up. If necessary, a second FUT session can be considered at this point.	The donor area regains most of its laxity.

“You are the first doctor that I've met who is more concerned about the patient's well being in the long term. And for that, I am thankful”
~ Michael T.

Dr. Armani is great. My hair transplant went just as he said it would and a year later at age 62 I now have a new hairline and no one has ever suspected that I had a transplant. He is an artist and a perfectionist. Before going to him, I had met with 3 other doctors, but only Dr. Armani created the comfort level that allowed me to go through with the procedure. Truly one of the best self help decisions I've ever made. I used to look in the mirror and dread my ever increasing scalp. Now I look in the mirror and can't believe my perfectly age appropriate hairline. Thanks Dr. Armani!

“My experience was outstanding! From the moment I met Dr. Armani, I was comfortable. He explained the procedure, answered questions and made his recommendations. During the procedure he was informative, gentle, professional, and demonstrated his concern for me and my well-being. He called me several times after the procedure to make sure all was well AND he provided me with his personal telephone number if I needed to call him. The result of my procedure was/is quite remarkable. My hair salon professional has remarked at how natural the result is and commented that he would not even know I had this procedure done had I not told him. My experience with Dr. Armani was probably one of the best doctor/patient experiences I have yet to have. Thank you Dr. Armani!”
~ Dr. Alfred P.

Dr. Armani and his team performed hair restoration for me in February 2015. I am very pleased with the results. Additionally, Dr. Armani is very easy to talk to and extremely patient and careful. I would recommend him to anyone considering hair restoration. Thanks.
