Bleeding in days post-op

[HappyinSW]

I had minimal bleeding at recipient sites in the first couple days post-op. Does this mean those grafts fell out?

I don't think so. I remember having some minimal bleeding the day after. I just used my spray bottle to keep the area clean and I had no adverse effects. I just looked at your blog and it looks like you've healed nicely. Good luck and grow well!

Almost surely not. I was told that you would know if a graft fell out. At about 8-9 days I was massaging one particular scab and it came with a hair and black bulb at the end. Even then I'm not sure the graft went bad as it is the surrounding yellow tissue that generates the hair.

 

Recently I also had a pimple in different area and it pushed out a hair with the bulb and some dried out yellow tissue. Even with that I'm not sure if that was the graft or not considering that just happened about 5 months out.
