I have undergone FUE with 2900 grafts just one month back. Everything went alright and hairs shed all within 3-4 weeks. So far all looking good. But my donor area just started very itchy now from last week. And I do like to scratch when it feels very itchy and sometime very strong that can't resist. Is it normal to have donor very itchy after FUE in 4th week? and should I respond or not?

Answer: If you are having issues after surgery, especially with "itchy scalp" you should contact your doctor.
Photos cannot assess if you would be a "good" candidate for surgery. Usually this involves seeing a doctor in person so you can discuss your goals and understand what can be expected after an examination.
It can take 6 to 12 months after surgery to see results. If you are concerned it is best to contact your doctor. It would be very rare if you have hair growth in 2 weeks.
