I have just done a FUT hair transplant almost two weeks ago, the surgery seems to be successful in almost every aspect. The only thing that is bothering me now is that I still feel tightness on the donor area. The doctor told me he took 7.5 cm by 1.5 cm scalp from my head and got 1200 grafts. Is it considered to be a large area? I felt the tension force from the scar especially when I drive a car and try to turn around my neck to clear the blind spot, or when I nod deeply. My question is that if this discomfort permanent or will disappear shortly?
Thanks.
Mike
According to Dr. William H. Lindsey answer, his donor strip is 1.6 to 1.7 cm wide, not inch. So are you sure it is 1.6 to 1.7 inch?
