The following response to a question from the Hair Restoration Social Community and Discussion Forums, was written by forum member “Gillenator”.

I had a [tag]hair transplant[/tag] done about 6 days ago. Most of the swelling in the recipient are has gone away. However, there is a lot of swelling above the scar still. Is it too early to be getting alarmed about this? What is a reasonable amount of time for this swelling to persist? Any advice would be appreciated.

The swelling and inflammation certainly can be acute especially in the first week following the procedure. Most [tag]hair restoration[/tag] clinics will recommend icing the area for 10 minutes on and off. Yet once you get a week or more post-op, the ice packs are not as effective as they are in the first 3-5 days.

Did your hair transplant surgeon provide you any medication or a script for an anti-inflammatory?

The next week or so should bring some relief and try to not do any strenuous activity which could increase pressure to the area and inflame it.

Wish you much relief in the days to come.

  • I recently had hair transplant surgery in Turkey with a company called FlyHealth. The swelling lasted a couple of days; I didn't have any scars though. You should wait at least a week before you get concerned. If the swelling persists, contact your doctor. Keeping your head in an elevated position always helps, also icing the swelling area keeps it to a minimum. Hope that answers your question.
