Reading list: How long should I follow a hair transplant recovery diet?
A dedicated hair transplant recovery diet should be followed strictly for at least 3 months after surgery. Here’s the timeline:
0–2 weeks: Focus on healing and reducing inflammation. Consume easily digestible foods, plenty of fluids, and protein-rich meals.
2–4 weeks: Continue high-protein foods and vitamins. Hair may shed naturally—this is normal.
3–6 months: Follicles stabilize and new hair begins to grow. Continue nutrient-rich meals to strengthen growth.
6–12 months: Hair thickens, and a balanced diet supports ongoing growth.
Even after the first year, maintaining a healthy, balanced diet enhances hair quality and prevents future hair loss.
