Can I buzz the recipient area of my transplant 2 weeks after procedure?

Hello, I am day 13 of ~1400 FUE. I have no remaining crusts or scabs. Transplanted hair actually seems to be growing which makes things more noticeable. Is it safe at this point to gently buzz the recipient area? Thank you in advance.
