Hi, I have had 2 hair transplants via strip method. (2500 grafts) My skin is uneven at the donor area, looks like a bump. It does not appear all along the complete line of scar, few parts of the scar line is normal with rest of my head (as shown in current picture). I was given contractubex gel to be applied. The redness has subside (see current picture) but the skin still feels uneven & bumpy. Do I have to bother? M considering FUE for 3rd time. Did I make mistake by going with strip method?

Answer: The donor area scarring from your strip surgery may show up as bumps and redness. If you are considering
For women who will never keep their hairs buzz cut short (like men) FUE may NOT be the best option. FUE involves shaving your scalp for the surgery. FUT does not require a hair cut or a shave.
Sleeping with a hair concealer should not have any issues with hair loss or hair transplant surgery. If you are concerned it is a good idea to check with your doctor.
Yes, you can.Just make sure you do it after the first week or two, when small incisions are healed and all scabbing is gone. Here is a link that spells out everything else you should expect after a hair transplant and what you are supposed to do about them.
