Nose graft, should it scab? (photo)

June 28, 2014
Asked By:Savannah898 in Saint Petersburg, FL

I am two weeks post op after a skin graft on my nose following surgical excision of a bcc. The graft is starting to scab and I'm wondering if this is normal? The external foam that was sutured on was removed a week ago. I'm using an antibacterial cream twice a day as directed but haven't commence massage yet.
