Asked By:mass2blast in Bangladesh

I had a FUE ht 25 days back from Mumbai by dr. Ritesh safariya. It all went good. I had high density and some mid density at the center area. Total of 3200 grafts. On my two sides of front hairline the density was even more. After 7 to 8 days post op i tried to remove the scabs on the sides. So I accidentally in my frontal sides pulled the scabs and it came out with lots of hairs attached to it. Now i am concerned about that area since it has no hairs in that part. See the pictures. Will hairs grow?
