During the procedure, your therapist will use low-laser light therapy (LLLT) to stimulate hair follicles by removing blockages that cause hair loss. LLLT helps to regulate blood flow, which removes excess keratosis (a growth of keratin on the skin) and improves scalp health. This ensures the new grafts receive optimum levels of nourishment and reduces the chances of your new transplant being rejected. ### **Mesotherapy For Hair** Mesotherapy is a procedure that enhances a follicle’s life and health by injecting multivitamins directly into the scalp. This process strengthens the hair follicles and supports new grafts from the hair transplant. At Shumaila’s, we offer a complimentary consultation to assess your scalp and choose a tailored treatment plan for you. Hair transplants are designed to be permanent, but their longevity may be affected by how well you care for them after implantation. At Shumaila’s, we can help to make your hair transplant more successful by providing treatment that will enhance your scalp health. ### **How Shall I Prepare For A Hair Transplant?** At Shumaila’s clinics in London and Essex, we offer three treatments for pre and post-hair transplant care: ### **Is A Hair Transplant The Only Way To Grow Hair In Bald Patches?** A hair transplant is your last resort to grow hair back only if you have no follicle growth left due to reasons such as accidental damage or hormonal or genetic baldness. However, in thousands of cases, weak and dying follicles can be revived with the help of non-surgical hair growth treatments such as LLLT and Mesotherapy. ![image](https://www.shumailas.com/api/media/file/award-heading-logo.webp) ![image](https://www.shumailas.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Screenshot-2024-11-29-at-3.50.37-PM-1.webp) ![image](https://www.shumailas.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/IMG-20241129-WA0000-1.webp) ![image](https://www.shumailas.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Screenshot-2024-11-29-at-3.50.07-PM-1.webp) ![image](https://www.shumailas.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/IMG-20241129-WA0001-1.webp) ![image](https://www.shumailas.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Group-305-1.webp) ![image](https://www.shumailas.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Group-308.png) View More Awards ## Showing our favourite reviews from Google ![google star](https://www.shumailas.com/api/media/file/google-star.svg) ![image](https://www.shumailas.com/api/media/file/stars-rate.svg) ## How To Get Started? ![icon beec9b4578d7de03](https://www.shumailas.com/api/media/file/icon-beec9b4578d7de03.svg) Step 01 Book your FREE consultation for pre and post-hair transplant treatments by requesting a callback. ![icon 9ca3ab25da1b3b9d](https://www.shumailas.com/api/media/file/icon-9ca3ab25da1b3b9d.svg) Step 02 Visit Shumaila’s for a consultation to discuss the best pre and post-hair transplant treatment for you.

It is advisable to prepare your scalp three to six months before receiving a hair transplant. The recommended preparation time will depend on the scalp’s condition. ### How important is it to prep the scalp before a hair transplant? It is crucial to cure the problem that caused your hair to fall out, to begin with. If your scalp is not healthy enough to sustain your natural hair growth, it will be hard for grafted hair to stay and grow in that area as it is more vulnerable and delicate. ### Why is it important to get post-hair transplant maintenance treatment? Grafted hair needs more nutrition and strengthening, so post-transplant treatments aim to increase scalp health. Maintaining a healthy scalp is vital to keep your transplant result permanently. ### How long do hair transplants last? Hair transplants are designed to be permanent, but their longevity may be affected by how well you care for them after implantation. At Shumaila’s, we can help to make your hair transplant more successful by providing treatment that will enhance your scalp health. ### When can I wash my hair after a hair transplant? It’s advisable to avoid washing your hair for at least 48 hours after a transplant and then this should be done professionally. This is because, during the early stages of acceptance, you can damage your grafts if you wash them incorrectly and aggressively. Any scabs will also need technical removal. ### When can I sleep normally after a hair transplant? It is advisable to sleep on your stomach for at least a week after a hair transplant to avoid the area rubbing against your pillow. ###### Related Topics hl-hidden --- *Original source: [Shumaila's London Aesthetics and Laser Clinic](https://www.shumailas.com/pre-and-post-hair-transplant-care/)*
