Please could you take a look at the attached pictures, Im 1 month today post op, 2000 FUE, is this normal? if it is can you tell me what it is please, it looks really bumpy and feels raised almost like its scar tissue and its very shiny in the light. I'm getting concerned that this might be cobble-stoning? will this fade or is it permanent? and has anyone seen this before?
