Hi! My name is View 😊 I'm planning to have a minor scalp transplant in Korea and fly back to Thailand the same day. However, I'm worried about swelling and aftercare during the trip. Has anyone had a similar experience? What are some tips for managing swelling in the first few days after the procedure?
I'd also like to know what products I should bring. Do different people use different products? What kind of moisturizing products or cooling gels are good for travel? And once I get home, how should I continue caring for my skin to reduce swelling quickly? I'm not sure if I'll be able to handle the swelling well on the plane 😅 Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Sister, do you have any plans to keep your head dry? I'm worried that if I fly from Korea back to Thailand that same day, the plane might irritate my surgical wound 😅
Hi! I've had a long flight after treatment too, and the most helpful thing is bringing a reusable cold compress or even just buying an ice pack from the convenience store there—simple but really helpful on the plane! Don't forget to drink plenty of water and, if possible, elevate your head when sitting; trust me, it makes a difference 😊
Hi Beau! Wow, the trip the day after the procedure was really challenging, huh? 😅 I'm curious, during the flight to Thailand, did the clinic give you any special instructions about positions or activities to avoid? I'm also planning a similar procedure, but I'm still unsure how to stay comfortable on the plane.
