When can I shower and wash my hair after facelift surgery?
Your surgeon will give you specific advice on how to wash and bathe after the surgery.
In general, you may gently shower and wash your hair 48 hours after a facelift surgery, taking particular care on the treated areas. You can also blow dry your hair on a cool setting. Be gentle when brushing or combing your hair so that you do not catch your comb in the suture lines. You must follow your surgeon's specific advice.
