If you are having issues after surgery, especially with "redness" you should contact your doctor.  It may be a sign of infection.  It may also be normal.  It is best to contact your doctor for treatment options.

The redness in the recipient area post transplantation usually depends upon the type of the skin and sometimes if it comes, takes a couple of months to go away..

Ben Talei, MD · Answer

Redness in the recipient area is typically normal and it varies from patient to patient accordingly to one's skin type.This usually goes away with time. Patience is key for both the redness and regrowth phase.

Redness after any hair transplant surgery depends upon your skin type and when you have it, it can last sometimes months, but it will eventually go away so be patient
