Will a normal pimple on the scalp adversely impact hair grafts?

Asked By:rhal22 in Orlando, Florida

I have acne, and I plan on getting a hair transplant in the near future. If I happen to get a pimple on my scalp after surgery (just a normal pimple, not folliculitis), will that adversely impact the grafts? Thanks.
