Answer: Swelling It is not uncommon to feel a raised area where the FUT incision was made. When the incision is closed its sometimes good to close the wound and have the edges raised. As the area heals and flattens out the scar will be a fine line. It's called everting the wound edges. If you don't do this on a tight closure, the scar sometimes becomes too wide and it heals.
