Skin redness - almost 3 months in?


Recommended Posts

Saw the clinic today and while it is not critical I was advised to massage the scalp more thoroughly, as well as increasing the number of washes

Personally, it doesn't seem so bad and I had trouble understanding if this is much of a concern. Initially I was thinking that I am experiencing faster recovery than usual due to a younger age but now not sure what's the verdict

Attaching imagery just in case

What's your experience in regards to redness?

It looks pretty normal, barely noticable. You have light skin so redness can last a while, I wouldn't be worried about it

Hey, man. Thanks so much for the comment. Not sure if it's the quality, as I was in the uni and rushed the pic a bit. It's not the red spots which I'm talking about but the clinic specialist said the area in general is red.

Scalp redness is normal where  grafts are placed, there is neo-vascularity and redness is part of it also with inflammation. Usually artificial light and camera makes it look worse than in natural light but I don't see anything to worry about in this photo and people heal also at different rates.  It will continue to fade but seems barely noticeable in this photos.

 

Heal well.

I also don't think there's anything to be concerned about, and I would just take this as a bonus tip from the doctor about how to even better care for your scalp. You seem to be healing perfectly fine and right on track!
