After a hair transplant surgery, it is important to take care of the newly implanted hair follicles and avoid any activities that may damage or dislodge them.
Sleeping in a normal position may put pressure on the scalp and potentially harm the hair grafts, so it is generally recommended to sleep in an elevated position for the first few days following the procedure. This can be achieved by using a few pillows to prop up your head and neck while you sleep.
Your hair transplant surgeon may also provide specific instructions based on the type of procedure you underwent and the number of grafts transplanted. It is important to follow these instructions carefully to ensure the best possible outcome and minimize any potential complications.
In general, most people can resume sleeping in a normal position within a week to 10 days after the procedure, once the hair follicles have had time to properly heal and take root in the scalp. However, it is always best to follow the advice of your hair transplant surgeon to ensure a successful recovery.
