What Is in My Kit
Your kit covers infection, swelling, pain, wound care and regrowth. Each item has one job, and your doctor’s plan tells you when to use it.
| Item | What it does | When |
|---|---|---|
| Antibiotic | Helps prevent infection while the skin heals. | Early healing |
| Anti-swelling medicine | Reduces swelling on the forehead and around the eyes. | Early healing |
| Pain reliever | Only if you feel pain. Most patients need none after day 5. | Early healing, as needed |
| Antibacterial spray | Keeps the grafts moist and clean, and eases itching. | Until the bottle is finished |
| Moisturising lotion | Eases dryness and tightness in the donor area. | When the donor area feels dry |
| Antibacterial cream | Only if pimples appear. | As needed |
| Ice gel pack | Limits swelling. On the temples, never on the grafts. | Early healing |
| Hair supplement | Supports regrowth. | During regrowth, after the first week |
| Anti-hair-loss shampoo and hair serum | Gentle daily care for the new hair. | After the final wash |
No brand names or doses here: your exact medicines and timings are in your personal plan. Ask about my kit.

We recommend one hair supplement during regrowth, starting after the first week. Ask your doctor before adding anything else, including biotin.
Later, if your doctor recommends them
- PRP and mesotherapy, from month 1
- Treatments that protect your existing hair, discussed at your check-ups
Flying With Your Kit
Carry your kit in your hand luggage, in its original boxes. Medically needed liquids over 100 ml are usually allowed at airport security if you declare them; ask us for a clinic letter before you fly.

Do not start, stop or change any medicine on your own. If something in your kit does not agree with you, such as a rash or an upset stomach, message us and we adjust your plan.
Usually normal
- Mild stomach upset if taken on an empty stomach
- Feeling tired in the first days
- Mild itching in the donor area
Take medicines after meals unless your plan says otherwise.
Message us the same day

In an emergency, call local emergency services first, then let us know.
Long-term hair loss treatment
Some patients use a medicine to protect their own hair after surgery. It is a personal decision with your doctor, discussed at your check-ups.
Quick Answers
Short answers to the medicine questions patients ask most.

Your kit has an antibiotic, an anti-swelling medicine, a pain reliever if needed, an antibacterial spray, a lotion and a hair supplement. Your doses and dates are in the plan your doctor gives you.

Yes. Carry them in your hand luggage, in their original boxes. Declare liquids over 100 ml at security and ask us for a clinic letter.
