Redness in recipient area after 10 weeks - FUE (1800 grafts)? (Photo)

June 13, 2017
Asked By:MikkelML in Denmark, AU

Dear Dr's Is it normal that there is still someone redness in the recipent area 10 weeks after FUE? The redness became less by time but when will the redness be gone in the recipent area? I have VERY light skin (Im from Denmark) and my doctor gave me an oral antibiotic cure (3000mg a day for a week) Now he says that there is NO infection (I have had a blood test) Do I need a second opinion? Or should I trust that it will fade away in time? Can you recommend a cream against redness?
