Advice needed please - 3 weeks post FUE

[Azad Cantona]

Hello all,

I have just registered to this amazing forum and so grateful to the person who created it!
 

i have some questions if someone can kindly help me? 
 

i am almost 3 weeks post fue and my donor area has a lot of pimples and itching, is this common? Is there anything i can use/take to help with itching and reduce pimples? 
 

i usually have the back and sides shaved to a zero with a clipper. When can i start using a clipper again on the donor areas? 
 

when can i start playing football/soccer again? 
 

is it ok to shampoo my hair everyday? 
 

when can i start massaging good oils on my head and can it be done daily? 
 

Thanks everyone, i hope someone answers and helps.

Hi

welcome to the forum! Would you be able to post some pics and give some details on your FUE? How many grafts etc? 
Your grafts are well and truly anchored now! Playing football should be fine.
Baby oil is good to relieve itching!

Thanks for your reply John. I will post some pictures later when i get in from work. I had my FUE on 24th August in Istanbul with Longevita. I had a total of 3500 grafts done. 

Is there anything i can use to reduce and get rid of pimples? 

Your thoughts on when Its safe to use a clipper on the donor area? Obviously I am in no rush right now due to itching and pimples.

I would wait another week. Around a month is usual before using clippers on the donor area.

Pimples are a sign of ingrown hairs, if they start to bother you a lot. Be sure to contact your surgeon, they can prescribe a topical ointment.
