Crust and graft, Day 2-3...

[Kobra2b]

Hello I performed an FUE transplant on Tuesday, 700 UF We are Thursday, that is D2, my first shampoo in the recipient area is scheduled for tomorrow. I already see a worrying pile of crusts (see photo): how to manage it so that it disappears on the first, light shampoos? If it persists, risk of losing the underlying grafts that suffocate? FYI I had scabs at 3-4 weeks during a previous transplant, associated with altered regrowth in the areas in question... PS: Is it normal to have an aggregate like this? On the majority of forums and pubs I see very clean and individualized scabs... Is it related to a technical error? For my part, I scrupulously respect the post-op recommendations.

Who did your surgery? 700 grafts is a small surgery. Looking at your picture I don`t see many grafts at all. Do you have more pictures from your surgery day?

Hello Big Mac
Does 1 crust = 1 graft??
In this case I counted around 150 crusts...

Dr said me that they putted 2-3 grafts per slot (except in the frontal area), to get more density.


Perhaps I'm sure didn't have 700 slots...

You will have one scab per graft. the scabs can and do crust in a pattern that’s looks joined together. I see you have what appears to be blood as though the area was bleeding. How did this heal?
