Senior Member Nw7HPE Posted March 30, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted March 30, 2022 I have small bumps in my donor area still 10 weeks after FUE and they do not seem to be going away . They are present in the scalp donor and the beard donor . They come and go but never fully subside . Is this normal ? what is the best course of action in terms of treating them ?

Senior Member 1978matt Posted March 30, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted March 30, 2022 Probably ingrown hairs. FUE is not perfect as it done relatively blindly with regards to what might be going on below the surface of the scalp. For example, follicles hidden in a resting phase may be unwhittingly damaged or blocked by scar tissue. I had maybe a handful in the donor area which imerged like small acne spots. These went away after a while. I still maybe get one randomly occuring every 3 months or so. 4,312 FUT grafts (7,676 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - August 2013 1,145 FUE grafts (3,152 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - August 2018 763 FUE grafts (2,094 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - January 2020 Proscar 1.25mg every 3rd day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted March 31, 2022 Administrators Share Posted March 31, 2022 Most likely ingrown hairs, if theres a lot I would suggest talking to your surgeon so they can prescribe you medication.
