Rahal Hair Transplant Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 (edited) Teddy, i’m not sure what your circumstances are but did you have a hair transplant anytime recently? It does look like it could be a mild case of folliculitis but it’s hard to tell from the pictures. Either way, folliculitis table goes away on its own overtime however, if the area looks like it’s getting worse because the infection is becoming inflamed, I suggest speaking to your surgeon assuming you’ve had surgery to see what they recommend. bwat wishes, Rahal Hair Transplant Edited February 13, 2023 by Rahal Hair Transplant Rahal Hair Transplant Institute - Answers to questions, posts or any comments from this account should not be taken or construed as medical advice.

Regular Member bear56 Posted February 14, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted February 14, 2023 a topical antibiotic powder can also be used and works more directly instead of systemic. good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
