Eyebrow transplant done three days ago. How long before the scabs come off? Can I start washing the brows?

Asked By:Mary72

I'm very concerned. First I was not given any post-op instructions of how to care for the brows. It's the third night and most of the swelling has gone down. The pic I have of what was drawn in looks nothing like what I have.  I wasn't told any of this.
