Regular Member mochi Posted December 3, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted December 3, 2008 8 days post op... scar feels bumpy... however I'm sure its due to swelling that will subside. How long generally does it take for that to happen? Also I had a trichowhatever closure done... only bad thing right now is that the hair near covering my scar seems to jut out making it seem like I have something pushing it up.

Bill - Seemiller Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 mochi, The hair transplant donor scar "bumps" could be the swelling as you suggest, remaining scabs, ingrown hairs, or the standard ridge that comes with a trichophytic closure technique. As the scar heals, any ridging should dissipate and become smooth like the rest of your scalp. Swelling should most likely subside within the first 10 days. If swelling persists beyond that, be sure to speak with your hair restoration physician. Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
