Hair transplant surgery involves thousands of tiny incisions (little cuts ). The blood around these little wounds needs to thicken/clot and dry over to form a scab, like any cut. Tir na nOg Clinic therefore recommends you do not cover the treated area at all during this initial phase. In order to dry out, the wounds need fresh air exposure. Without it, not only will healing be delayed, but some of the hairs may come loose.
The clinic does not endorse the use of steroids or preventative antibiotics - some clinics upsell/prescribe these and other products such as expensive shampoos and treatments positioned as after-care. In their extensive experience, the team at Tir na nOg Clinic see no benefit in such products and instead encourage taking the simplest and fastest route to recovery.
Dr Kevin McDonald at Tir na nOg Clinic sees patients back in the clinic after one week, where he will remove the scabs and inject PRP (platelet-rich plasma ) treatment. The team call this treatment follicle fertiliser!
Patients return for reviews at six and 12 months. Regrowth of the hair typically starts around four months post-surgery, with full regrowth by 12 months. In the interim, patients have unlimited access to Dr Kevin McDonald and the team. All follow-up care is included in the package the clinic provides, with no hidden costs. The team want all patients to feel comfortable and informed so they can enjoy their new lease of life.
