The ideal diet after hair implants or hair transplants
After undergoing the FUE method of hair transplantation, you need to take care of your health so that the hair grows properly. Eating healthy foods rich in protein, minerals and vitamins will strengthen hair follicles and accelerate hair growth. Your diet should include wheat bread, broccoli, grains and tofu. The implanted hair contains keratin, which is a type of protein and you can get this in tablets or lotions. The lack of proteins in the hair can cause the slow growth of the hair or the rapid loss of this after a hair implant. Eat these protein-rich foods a day and you will notice the difference.
Vitamins are very essential for the complete and rapid growth of hair. Take vitamin B6 capsules daily after going through a hair transplant to help hair growth. Vitamins will help make the skin, nails and hair stronger, as well as accelerated hair growth. Make the most of iron in your diet also after the hair implant, since the cells in the blood require iron in order to transport oxygen throughout the body, especially the scalp. Iron helps speed recovery after the intervention.
The intake of fluids, such as water, will greatly help the oxygenation and elimination of toxins in the body.
