8 days FUT post op. Does this normal? I am terrified that something went terribly wrong. (Photo)

Question

I went to see my doctor regarding my concerns and was assured my eyebrows are healing normally. But based on photos I’ve seen of others brows they look far more normal/healed than mines. I am terrified that something went terribly wrong and I can’t tell if the scabs fell off or if my skin has been altered or scarred. Any advice will be helpful.

What about it feels incorrect to you? Based on the single picture it's hard to tell anything specific, needs more pictures to tell anything.

How mant days post op are you? This looks pretty normal. Scabs tend to fall off by the 7th to 10th day. Some patients actually tend to loose the hair and some people keep the hair. If you happen to loose the hair not to worry. The bulb is still in tact. The hairs go into a dormant stage and that is what takes about 4 to 6 months to see any regrowth. Keep in mind that I tell all my patients you can get growth any where from the 4th to 15th month.

Your surgeon is the bst one to reassure you about the status of your eyebrow transplants at this point in time. The photos are hard to interpret
