Hair Transplants

Hair transplants may be minimally invasive, but they cause a unique type of swelling and inflammation around the scalp, forehead, and eyes due to the concentration of small incisions. The procedure requires transplanting thousands of tiny grafts, which temporarily disrupts lymphatic flow around the scalp and face. This can cause puffiness or tension that lingers for several days post-surgery.

Our recovery approach uses facial and scalp lymphatic drainage to reduce swelling safely without disturbing grafts. We use ultra-light, directional movements that encourage circulation while protecting delicate follicles. As recovery continues, red light therapy may be added to promote blood flow and support follicle strength. These techniques not only speed visible recovery but also enhance comfort and confidence during the healing process.

Benefits include:

  • Safe, non-invasive, and soothing to the scalp
  • Faster reduction of forehead and eye swelling
  • Supports graft survival through improved blood flow
  • Enhances overall comfort and appearance
