I'd like a second opinion: do the scabs on my scalp look normal 12 days after FUE? (Photos)

Asked By:normanandrade in North Bay, Ontario, Canada

My surgeon said I can wash my head vigorously under the hot shower head to get the scabs off. I got most of them off. It looks like alot of hair came off stuck on the scabs and my hair looks really thin. Is it normal to look like this ? Am I over reacting? Keep in mind I did this 12 days after surgery which I'm told the grafts are anchord in.
