Hi, I bumped my head yesterday on the corner of the laundry door. I am 6 weeks post op and have been extremely careful of my grafts up until this point. You can see that where I bumped my head there is a distinct reddish pink line. There was no bleeding or visible loss of hair, does feel swollen when I rub my finger over it. In your professional opinions given the information provided do you think I would have damaged any of the grafts?

Answer: If you are having issues after surgery or you have injured your scalp it is best to contact your surgeon.
Thank you for your question. You are experiencing great regrowth for the 5 month post-op mark, and should continue to experience regrowth up until the 12 month post-op mark. I suggest that you keep your board certified facial plastic surgeon up-to-date as to your recovery.Best wishes,
It all depends on the density you have and the hair loss. You need to consult with a hair restoration professional in order to plan your hair restoration journey.
