Hi, could you tell me if the redness on my scalp is normal and the pimple I have as well, and do I need to be concerned ?

Answer: Redness and Pimple Thank you Jack for contacting LA Hair Institute. I understand your concern but what you’re experiencing is very normal. The redness you see is normal and should begin to decrease. Getting pimples is common, almost everyone gets them. The pimples are due to new hairs growing through the skin or old hairs being expelled. Typically these kinds of pimples can be mistaken with a true infection but most of them will go away within 3-4 days. If they continue, you can apply a warm, moist washcloth for 10-15 minutes twice a day. If more pimples appear and they are swollen, tender and hot to the touch please contact a doctor as they might be infected. Should you have additional questions or concerns regarding the FUE hair transplant, I’m happy to offer you a free consultation. Thank you again for contacting me.

Answer: Redness after hair transplant Redness like this is common after your procedure. Pimples are also common. The pimple should resolve on it's own. The redness represents inflammation which is normal after your procedure. Please follow up with your surgeon at the scheduled time, but everything looks good for your stage of recovery.

Answer: Redness in scalp Assuming that you don't have an infection because your doctor cleared this diagnosis, then your hair and skin color often produces sensitive skin. To find out if this is the cause, you can scratch your forehead with your fingernail by pressing it into your forehead and moving it about 2 inches. IF the scratch area stays red for more than a few minutes, you have Histamine positive response and may be able to treat your red recipient area with topical steroids.
