It is best to contact your doctor about post operative care and instructions since each doctor has a different regimen. You may be seeing extra tissue that has raised up after a shower.
Thank you for sending images. It appears that your hair transplant is fairly recent?It is not uncommon to have some crusting where the grafts are for several weeks after a hair transplant. In addition, following hair shock about 2-3 months after the transplant, one can develop small pimples where the new hair comes in. It is important to continue close follow up with your surgeon during this recovery which really takes a full year to see the final results. I would recommend contacting your surgeon for a follow up and examination.
Thank you for providing photos. There might be some crusting after washing which isn't uncommon. Refrain from picking at the scabs, you might dislodge the grafts. Make sure to follow all post operative instructions provided by your surgeon to achieve the best results.
Scabs look whitish after washing , it is normal ..You may start to wash your transplant area at second day of surgery with care and massage the transplant area gently so the scabs will fall off... After two weeks of hair transplantation it is acceptable to wash hairs as normal /preoperative period of surgery. All scabs should be cleaned with pressured (not gentle) massage to transplant area after 2 weeks .Dont forget that you may wash your head with normal pressure and if you need you can use a wet towel with soap for massage the scabby area, it Works very well to remove scabs .Patient may feel free to loosen any scabs on his/her head by massaging and that will not damage the grafts after 2 weeks .
The white dots you are seeing is water logged graft edges from the shower and as you know that when your hair gets dry the white dots go away
If you have diffuse hair loss, you may not be the best candidate for surgery. You must also consider that normal hair density is about 200 hairs in a square centimeter for an average non-balding person who has about 100,000 hairs.
These hairs have taken on a J shape which means that the grafts were kinked when then were placed by the surgical team. There is always a question if these grafts will grow out as normally as those without the kink.
The cost of hair transplant or any cosmetic surgery varies widely between doctors or clinics. The method of harvesting and technique will also play a factor. It is best to start by seeing a doctor for a consultation.
