Regular Member bkkbaldeyebrows Posted May 9, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) I have been told that because the multiple hair graft extract by FUE, and seperate into single hair to transplant into eyebrow with small slit, It will be very very little or even no scabbing and crusting. IF IT IS LESS SCABBING OR CRUSTING, IS IT A GOOD SIGN OF SUCCESS OR BAD SIGN OF FAILURE? Edited May 9, 2013 by bkkbaldeyebrows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Janna Posted May 9, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 9, 2013 It's true that when they dissect the grafts into singles and if they trim the grafts, there will be very little tissue attached. You should, however, have a tiny bit of scabbing/crust. Do you have any pictures?

Regular Member bkkbaldeyebrows Posted May 9, 2013 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) sry im on travel, i cant post a photo. Im about 5 days post op very little scab. Right away post op on eyebrow was little blood, look clean , and swelling on the eyebrow gone in two days. little itchy on eyebrow and blueblack around my eyes until today. Does scabbing affect the success in transplant? all i have mention was a good sign or not? is it possible to see the fat around hair root after seperating by eyes or it should be in microscope only?

Senior Member Janna Posted May 9, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 9, 2013 You can't judge a success or failure of a procedure by just the scabs. If you had normal blood scabbing, you're probably fine. It'll be a matter of waiting for the hairs to grow at this point. Heal and grow well.

Senior Member gillenator Posted May 10, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 10, 2013 I agree. It's the regrowth and matured appearance result that ultimately determines whether or not the procedure was successful. And you as the patient can only make that determination if your goals were met to your satisfaction. If you do experience some scabbing/crusting, it will manifest in the next several days if it has not by now. If you do not experience it in any significant way, that's fine. It's not a problem. The blackening around your eyes will also subside in the next 7-10 days. By then, you should look healed and normal. It is always possible that you may experience some mild thinning of the eyebrows before the regrowth happens.

Senior Member HairKlepto Posted May 10, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 10, 2013 Looks like you took the plunge with the eyebrows. Did you use leg hair for this? Do you go with Umar or someone else? I'd be curious to know how it works out in regards to trimming the hair, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
