Hey everyone, I have a question regarding post-op redness. I had 2545 grafts put into my hairline and temples. The recipient area is red and inflamed still even though it`s been 6 months. It itches and I get a burning sensation every day which is preventing me from sleeping. I asked my doctor for her opinion without any real answer except I have to refrain from scratching and let it heal over more time. It`s difficult to resist the urge to scratch when it drives me insane and I have no control over it when I do sleep. I`ve woke up on several occasions with blood on my scalp and pillow from scratching while sleeping. It only happens in the recipient area and not in the donor area which is fine so it seems my skin is having some sort of bad reaction to the hair grafts. I have tried all kinds of creams without success. What should I do? It is very troublesome for me.
