An FUE is treated just likea regular hair transplant with regard to the recipient area, but the donor areahas open wounds which require daily washing with soap and water. Within 3 daysof surgery, you can resume full activities, heavy exercises if you wish. Therecipient area requires daily washes as well to keep the recipient area free ofcrusts. I generally recommend the use of a sponge and supply my patient with asurgical sponge to fill with soapy water and press on the recipient area daily.By repeating this daily, all crusts can be washed off without any fear oflosing grafts. IF any crust are present, use a Q tip and dip it into soapywater, and roll it on the crusts and that will lift them off without dislodgingthem, but never rub them, just roll the Q tip on the recipient crust. I like tosee no evidence of any crusting in the recipient area and the crusts from thedonor area gone in 7-10 days with daily washing. To keep the area moist, use a good conditioner after each wash.
