Dust exposure after FUE Beard Transplant. Should I be concerned?

Question

One day after my FUE Beard Transplant, I went outside during the night and there was a dust wave and the air was dusty. I covered the transplanted area with my scarf. Should I be concered? Would this have any affect on the growth of the transplanted grafts?

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

Dust exposure in a normal sense should be fine.  If you have issue or concerns it is best to follow up with your doctor.

If you cover it, I doubt there will be a problem. What you should look for, is dust in the graft recipient area and that would be an irritant

The follicles are under the skin and the dust will not harm the follicles. However it is best to keep away from any environment that May cause an infection in general. If you see any sign of infection then co tact your doctor to do a follow up visit.
