When can I shower and wash my hair after surgery?
You should be able to take a shower 48 hours after your neck lift operation.
You will need to wash the wound carefully and ensure it heals well. This may involve application of an antibiotic ointment after your shower.
It is also important that you dry your incisions having washed and bathed them. If you need to use a hairdryer to dry your hair, it must be kept on a cool setting.
You should also take care when brushing your hair around your ears and suture sites.
