Experience,
Most likely you have had your FUE procedure within the last few weeks. Occasionally after surgery some of the recipient site can become inflamed and if worse still, infected. My initial recommendations for patients with only a few red and tender areas on the scalp would be to make sure you are shampooing the scalp daily and preferably with an antibacterial shampoo. Also, apply topical antibiotic ointment to the worst offending areas at least twice a day for about a week. Avoid picking or scratching the areas.
Still, after having said this, it is best to follow up with your hair transplant surgeon in the office or on the phone to update them on your progress. If necessary, they may also want to put you on some oral antibiotics.
If you take care of this in a timely manner, there should really be no ill effects on the final FUE result.
Thanks for your insight, here are some more details:
It has been 3 months and 20 days. In the front:
It feels like I hitter my head when I touch it. But I did not hit my head. It is just 1cm. Not red, not visible, just a small bump.
It is below some hairs.
-
I have some bumps on my head on the area where the grafts are implanted.
One bump is not visible, but you can feel it and when you press it, it hurts a bit.
There are also some visible smaller bumps with a red color.
What should I do? Can it harm the progress?
-
Should I worry about negative effects of having the flu or being sick after 1,5 month after FUE operation? I am not taking medicines yet for this flu, because I want to wait a few days to see if it passes.
I saw this on the internet:
"Since the follicle is a very sensitive it does respond to imbalances in the body. Most hair loss causes by disease or illness is temporary and resolves itself after the body has returned to a healthy condition.
High fever, severe infection, severe flu
Sometimes one to three months after a high fever, severe infection or flu, a person may experience hair loss, this is usually temporary and corrects itself."
-
Is it okay to wash my hair once per 2 days now?
-
Anybody knows how they should look like?
-
I am now 1 month after my FUE. But I notice that I am finding different types of hair in my hand after I wash my hair.
A just straight hair
B hair with a hook/angle on the end
C hair with 'something' at the end, like a root or something.
Did you also have different types?
I am afraid that type C are just misplaced grafts who were just laying all the time on my head instead of being correctly implanted.
And what about B?
How they should look like normally?
-
How often do you wash your hair? Every day?
I am now a month after my FUE, I should wash my hair every day or every other day?
I heard shampooing every day can be bad?
-
Today when I was jogging (with a hat) I felt a very sharp pain on top of my head (recipient area). A little bit pressure or it felt like bleeding, it was a strange feeling, but I didn't see blood. Just pain. I could just do what I want, but still an unpleasant feeling, right now, hours later I also feel it a little.
Is it normal?
-
Experience,
Looks like normal "graft crusting." It could be some scalp dryness and irritation as well. Have you discussed this with your clinic?
Thanks for your reply. But its day 20 so there should be no crust anymore?
On another picture later that day it was gone by the way
I also emailed the first photo to the clinic and I received a 1 line response "massage more" back, I guess an assistent and not the actual doctor just emailed that.
-
I don't know exactly what it is. In the past I had some dandruff. But is this dandruff or dry skin or something else? And can it affect my results? (day 20)
-
Hi there,
I am now on day 18. Should I specially massage my scalp? To move the skin a little bit around with my fingertips?
Is it important? And should I do this during the washing or multiple times per day?
-
I am on day 10 and I still have some scabs.
I found this cream:
20g ointment contains 1.4 g Calendula officinalis 18,6g TM and white petrolatum.
Is it good to use this?
Is any calendula cream ok?

Its now 8 days after my operation and I have some blood crust on my head.
Closeup front:
What do you think? Is it a normal amount of crust/scabs?
What is the maximum number of days that it can stay on my head without negative effects?
-
If I don't put on the heating its around 7 degrees celsius in my house. (44.6 fahrenheit)
Is this bad for the new grafts? I am in the 4th day after the operation.
And I prefer not to dry my hair after shampooing, so does that make it worse?
-
2 days after the operation the clinic washed my hair
If I remember it correct this is what I am supposed to do:
First I put bepanthol only on top of my head (not donor)
By only touching it with top of my fingers. No moving.
Wait 30 minutes.
Put the shampoo on top of my head (not donor)
Slowly moving fingers from back to front.
Put some water from a bottle.
And let the water slowly on my head to make the shampoo go away.
No waiting.
Now I use directly the rifocin ampoule and put it on some paper, and slowly touching the back of my head.
Is this correct? Should I change something? Suggestions? Makes sense?
-
I can't see your photo but a scabby scalp with lots of dried blood is a fairly accurate description of what you can expect to see after 1 day.
Thanks for the reply.
Maybe this link works: http://img42.com/lFkGx
The assistent of the doctor told me to come 2 days after the operation for washing. (tomorrow)
I had a FUE with 3000, and they gave me some medicines, but they did not say anything about putting some water on it on the day after the operation. So I didn't touch it at all.
(Yesterday I had the transplantation)
-
I made a hair transplantation of 3000 grafts yesterday and my washing at the clinic is tomorrow.
It looks scary, what do you think? All the dried blood? Is it normal after 1 day?
Thanks!

Hi guys,
I am a 25 year old guy. In dec 2012 i had an fue hairtransplant in Sweden with 2000 grafts that gone wrong. That HT cost me about 6000 Euros. Dr. Geza Madar in Malmo Sweden did my hair transplant with very poor result as you can see in the pictures below. He didn't want too speak too me after my OP and he haven't give me any money back or nothing at all.
Now i still am bald and i don't feel good at all about my current situation. I hope you can help me too decide wich genuine low-price surgeon is the best in Turkey. A surgeon that you have heard about who have shown some good results.
Today i only have Dr. Demirsoy on my list. Please add some more interesting namnes.
Best regards
FUE-2014
Donorarea;
Scalparea;
I am shocked by this story. The clinic offers totally no solution?
Maybe I can help you out putting some pressure on them, can i send you a message?
Answer to your other question:
Depending on the clinic they can deny you because of age or other reasons
