Day 13 scabbing is lifting but, dark spots are still evident and indentation from areas of scabbing is evident throughout. Will these indentations heal and return to normal skin or will they scar? How long will that recovery take? If they scar the hair will not grow correct? Dark spots continue to worry us.

Hello, thank you for the replies. I do not know if they used that blue methylene. He has been applying a topical antibiotic for the last four days, it’s removed a lot of the scabs but, the darker areas remain although lighter and smaller, as they dissolve the skin underneath is exposed but, is cratered deeper compared to the surrounding skin. A swab was done that confirmed gram-negative bacteria flora were present so, I’m not sure if that meant there was/is an infection. The hair seems to be growing though where there was heavy scabbing the hairs are shorter, we are hoping that the follicle has survived? I’ve attached a photo of the progress with the antibiotics cream. It’s been 4 days

Hi there, he completed the after care as specified to him. He was not to touch the recipient area until day 8, so, he washed the area x3/day by pouring water and baby soap over the area. He was on antibiotics since the day before the surgery. He developed a fever the first day post op and had it for 5 days. It’s finally gone. he has gone back to the doctor who preformed the procedure x3 times now and each time he says he doesn’t think it’s necrosis but, he’s not sure. we are going to see a dermatologist this morning.

This was post op

This was day after

Hi yes there was some complications, he lost 2pints of blood during the procedure, and they said because of his muscle mass (he is a natural heavy weight lifter) that his muscles metabolized the freeze quickly and they had to use 2L. Additionally, he has a bleeding disorder thelasemi minor which the physician knew of. I have attached the picture the day of surgery and the day after

My husband got a hair transplant last week from a local clinic. His recovery has been very difficult and the doctor says he may have necrosis. I am attaching a photo, this is day 8. There is heavy scabbing. All the picture I look at online, no one has this much scabbing, he doctor keeps saying it’s normal but, now hes saying the top layer of the dark spots is likely dead but, the follicule looks still in tact. He is so worried. Has anyone seen this much scabbing? And or these dark spots that did not turn out to be necrosis? Any recommendations?
