What is the best solution to drying hair after a FUE hair transplant?

FK8
Hello, I am 2 weeks after FUE hair transplantation and I would like to ask how should I dry my hair after shower? What is the best way? I would like to mention I have still some scabs and pieces of skin on recipient area. In the first two weeks I have let hair dry naturally without any towel or hairdryer. I would like to ask what should I do next? Should I dry hair after shower still naturally or gently with towel or some paper tissue or with hairdryer? Thank you very much for your answers.
