heathpeyton1 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Please see both of these photos. One of these is from before and the other is after. This was 7 days after my surgery and I slowly rubbed my head and felt these scabs become very loose and ended up rubbing most of them off. I didn’t really pick and use my nail to scratch them off but rubbed them softly and they slowly came off. Obviously I shouldn’t have done this, but does anyone think I may have ruined my internal grafts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Mike1J Posted January 30, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted January 30, 2023 I've done pretty much the same during my first FUE, I gently pulled off pieces of scab without realizing it, thinking I am just itching. I paniced and worried, but looking back now it was for nothing, it turned out ok To me based on the photos I'd say you shouldn't worry, and just be careful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Rafael Manelli Posted January 30, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted January 30, 2023 Scabs are just dead skin. No blood = no worries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseyman Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 based on what my doctor told me, you should be fine after 1 week from the operation day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
