Hello everyone, 
I am about 2 weeks post HT, for past couple of days I noticed more itching and excess pimples in donor area, seems like folliculitis, I was wondering any specific shampoo or cream that helps with that?291F7084-732B-48E4-A36C-4B54FBAEF834.thumb.jpeg.a6c9fbc3ff43cc1a1481925554280f98.jpegF8F48E03-B01C-4763-BE2D-EACF855931C2.thumb.jpeg.9dde06640419274138c134698e606e88.jpeg

Pimples are certainly expected at this point and typically not an issue.  Let them heal on their own.  Still..you may want to contact your surgeon for advice if you're still concerned.
