Reducing itchiness

Scabs usually fall off automatically within 7-14 days, although it can depend on factors such as incision size at the recipient spots, the density of hair grafts, number of grafts placed etc. Each incision leads to scars and the development of scabs. These small scabs, similar to any other scabs, can cause itchy sensations. You will only feel like picking at the scab or scratching the thatch to reduce the itchiness. It is important to avoid doing so, as the newly placed grafts could be damaged otherwise. SHIFT Hair Transplant medical team recommend washing the scalp gently, to let the scabs automatically come off and sometimes removing them by a special way since it is important for the new grafts to breath after the 10th-day operation, and scabs might be an obstacle for new hair follicles to take enough oxygen. Hair Transplant Scabs Cleaning

Securing the grafts

It can be beneficial to do scabbing initially, as it manages to hold the grafts in the proper spot. By the end of the 10^th day, there is no need to do scabbing anymore. Keep in mind that scabs promote a moist, warm environment that leads to the growth of bacteria. This can give rise to an inflammatory response, and hinder growth. It is sensible for you to wash the scabs off at this point. SHIFT Hair Transplant in Turkey gives a special spray packed with enzymes that make scabs and crusts dissolve. This makes the scalp look cosmetically better, and also promotes proper and safe healing. Scabs Cleaning after Hair Transplant
