I was a little more firm with the massage this morning and a lot of the crusts are now removed although hairs did remove along with the crusting. I am just concerned I was a little too firm, but from my understanding to remove a graph at day 14 is not easy, I saw no blood, so just for benefit of doubt wanted to run this by you guys and I will schedule a quick catch up with my surgeon to be sure as advised by you guys. Thanks for your help, much appreciated.

Answer: It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care as each doctor has their unique regimen.
It may take several weeks to see how your donor area may turn out. At this point it may be too early to tell but if you're concerned it is best to contact your doctor.
Ointment is useful in the donor area during the initial healing phase and up to about a week. You are at that point so it is unlikely to have any additional benefit.
