Is it normal to be this red after hair transplantation almost 4-weeks post-op? (Photo)

Asked By:Sister Sweet in New York, NY

I had hair transplanted to my eyebrows almost 4 weeks ago. Nearly all the grafted hair has fallen off by now, but my skin underneath is still very red (see picture). Is this permanent? If not, when will the redness go away? Thanks for the help!
