Can I Wear a Hat Post-Op. Will It Affect My Hair Transplant?

Can I wear a hat post-op? My job requires me to wear a hat for the whole day. thank you.

— B.

You can wear a hat as long as it is clean and not too tight fitting and does not touch the grafted area for the first few days. If you have had temple reconstruction, you must be a little more careful that the hat doesn’t push to hard on the sides. Most baseball like hats are fine. No knit caps or anything that may attach to the grafts for the first week.
