8 days after FUE and continuing to wash as per doctors instructions. Today I noticed the scabbing had turned white and is flaking off. Just wondering if this is ok, I'd imagine the actual root is far longer and bigger than the dot but wanted to be certain.

Answer: Thats normal Generally the grafts are placed with a little skin still out of the incision site. This little bit of skin begins to wash off around 8 days after the surgery. If you want to get rid of them, the shampoo 6 times in a row and each time let the shampoo sit for a minute before you rinse your hair. Use the balls of your fingers to gently massage off that dead skin. Unless you get bleeding which you should not after 8 days, even if you lose the hair the follicle remains under the skin. Most of the transplanted hair will fall out over the next month, and that is normal as well. I dont see anything out of the ordinary on your pictures. Enjoy the new hair!

Answer: 1 week after surgery At 8 days, your graft area is looking good. Continue with daily washes and the rest of the crusting will come off
