Does phone LED light negatively affect recipient area healing following FUE hair transplant?

Asked By:omarion07 in Dublin, IE

I had an FUE procedure this week and I'm on day 3 now. Sometimes I use the phone LED light to examine if the grafts on recipient area are ok and there's no bleeding occuring. Upon doing that I feel a slight burning sensation. Is it just a coincidence and it's just in my head or does flashing LED light on recipient area does actually have a negative impact on recipient area and graft health.
