How long after FUE is it safe to shave the head short? Is there danger of pulling out grafts.
Many thanks for your time.
I clip the patient’s hair short on the day an FUE is performed and you can keep it that way. Shaving the head can be safe at about 1 week. Be careful not to cut the new skin in the donor area, though.
