How Long Does Hair Transplant Recovery Really Take?

Hair transplant recovery is one of the most frequently searched topics among international patients planning a procedure in Turkey. Understanding the healing timeline helps patients know what to expect after FUE or DHI techniques. Most patients experience mild redness and scabbing during the first 7–10 days, with a return to daily life typically within 3–5 days.

The shedding phase, known as "shock loss," occurs around weeks 2–6 and is a completely normal part of the process. New hair growth begins at month 3, continues improving at month 6, and final results usually appear between 9–12 months.

At Medsun Esthetic, each patient receives a personalized recovery plan, including scalp care instructions, washing techniques, and follow-up guidance. With Turkey's advanced medical tourism environment, patients enjoy both a safe healing process and the unique advantage of recovering in a relaxing holiday atmosphere. This makes Turkey one of the best countries for hair transplant recovery and long-term satisfaction.
