Asked By:adamhymas in Malton

Hi I am wondering if my donor area and recipient area should look like this after 2 weeks? I have had 2000 FUE grafts. I can see that the front and back have started to go a little red. All of the scabbing has nearly come off and I now washing normally in the shower. I just dont want to cause any growth issues for my new hair. Also how long is it untill I can return to heavy lifting in a gym? Thank you
