14 days after hair transplant. The head is still swollen, is this common? (photos)

It is best to contact your surgeon for post surgery issues and care since all doctors have slightly different instructions.

Hello, Thank you for your question. Swelling is expectable after Hair Transplant, and especially when the hairline was restored, But normally patients look good and almost all the swelling should be gone within 7-10 days post op. Based on the photo, your transplanted part looks as it should be looking by 2 weeks post op

In your submitted photos the transplanted scalp appears to be fine. But persistent swelling and headache could suggest the possibility of infection. Have you experienced fevers, chills, or sweating while sleeping? Infection after scalp surgery is not common, but it can and does occur. I would inform your transplant surgeon about this and have him/her examine your scalp to rule out infection.
