8 Days Post FUE - Scabbing

[Bigmac]

Some may look like this.

@Bigmac thank you, that helps me be a bit less fearful of applying some real pressure hearing this from others in the forum. Perhaps I've been overly gentle out of fear of dislodging grafts

 

[Bigmac]

At day 4 your grafts are secure. It is understandable to be cautious but now you can apply more pressure without any worries. Never pick a dry scab off, You could soak in the bath too if you like to take a bath.
Your scalp looks fine by the way with the lingering scabs.

Thanks, that's reassuring to hear. Time to get these off I guess!

It's odd how good it can be to discuss things on hear that you typically can't talk about with others so thanks for the tips and feedback

 

[Bigmac]

No problem. Anything else just ask away.

They came straight off under a normal shower with some pressure, it feels good to be free of them now, thanks for the advice and help getting me through the scabby stage

 

[Bigmac]

Good to hear they came off easily. Now you may get more itching and pimples, all normal parts of the recovery process.

Been following as literally at the same stage as James to the day. BM. How long does the redness last on the scalp after fue

 

[Bigmac]

Redness can last for months on some people. There is no given time frame, each person heals differently.
