Hello I have hair transplant (fue) 2 weeks ago, and the donor area keeps itching and feel like shrinking, am using vitamin "e" as I have been told to reduce the redness of the skin. One more thing, I can't feel the transplanted area, it's like Anesthetic area. How long it gonna take for that Anesthetic to go away?
