The day of follicular unit hair transplant surgery

You will be able to go home the day of follicular unit hair transplant surgery, but you may still feel drowsy from the sedation. In general, no bandages or dressings are required.

Most patients have only mild discomfort that can be controlled with a prescription for stronger pain medication. It is not uncommon to experience some minor temporary swelling in the forehead area.
