Senior Member arfy Posted June 10, 2002 Senior Member Share Posted June 10, 2002 It might be a "pit", as your description sounds like a description for pitting. You probably need to have someone look at it, to say what it is for sure. Pits can happen sometimes when the grafts are not seated correctly, or if the recipient sites are too big. They are usually associated with Minigrafts, and should not occur with true FU grafts. It's possible that they will "fill in" and level off, although that is wishful thinking. If it is actually truly pitted, they will probably always stay pitted. I would contact your doctor, and ask him what is causing this. There may be a way to correct it. Also, hopefully it is not noticeable to anyone but you. If it is only two grafts, I suspect that may be true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
