Frequently Asked Questions

How long after forehead surgery can I wash my hair?

You can wash your hair 24 hours after surgery, cleaning the coronal incision daily with tepid water and Betadine shampoo.

Gently massage towards your incisions, never away from them. Keep the area clean and dry. Use a hairdryer on the cool setting to eliminate moisture around the wound.

It is fine to use hair conditioners as long as they do not contain components that irritate the scalp.
