Stitch marks after FUT


Recommended Posts

Hi!

 

I had a FUT 14 days ago.

My sutures were removed after 10 days.

 

The dots where the stitches were made on each side of the suture line are still very red and obvious.

 

After my first FUT I used vaseline on the donor area and had no problem.

This time I used polysporin ointment (mix of antibiotics and Vitamin E). Could this be because I had a reaction to Vitamin E ?

 

Are these kind of marks something I should be expecting after 2 weeks or is this something that will scar like this? :confused:

 

Thanks for your help!!!

it should not be an issue as you heal...they should eventually just disappear.

 

Congrats on your recent procedure...;)
