I completed my fue procedure 8 days ago, this morning I woke up sleeping on my recipient area. I was wondering if I would know if I did any damage? There was no blood on the area and the scabs looked normal as far as I can tell.

Answer: Did I damage any grafts by sleeping in recipient area? 1 week post-op. By eight days postop, sleeping on the recipient site should not have any adverse effects on your grafts.

Answer: Damage If you did not see any bleeding, you did not damage the recipient area. Your post op care does not meet my standard as the crust are still there. This is my rountine: The recipient area requires daily washes as well to keep the recipient area free of crusts. I generally recommend the use of a sponge and supply my patient with a surgical sponge to fill with soapy water and press on the recipient area daily. By repeating this daily, all crusts can be washed off without any fear of losing grafts. IF any crust are present, use a Q tip and dip it into soapy water, and roll it on the crusts and that will lift them off without dislodging them, but never rub them, just roll the Q tip on the recipient crust. I like to see no evidence of any crusting in the recipient area and the crusts from the donor area gone in 7-10 days with daily washing.
