My frontal to middle transplanted scalp is getting very oily after day 8 FUE with 3000+ grafts. I could see tens or more very small drops of oil on my newly transplanted area. I am washing once daily as suggested by my doc. Is this bad, ok or great? Should I wash more frequently to remove the excessive oil?. I am not going out and having 2 weeks off resting home so this is not sweat.

If you are a normal caucasian male, then your FUE had lots of missed grafts.In other words, the doctor missed the 2 hair follicle and only got one.Some clinics may call this hair multiplication or cloning (taking partial grafts)Call it what you may, but your 3000 graft FUE will give you less...
Thank you for posting your question. If you are considering hair restoration, FUE is a great choice. You will have the flexibility of sporting a short haircut and style. Just keep in mind proper haircare routine, such as minoxidil, finasteride, prp and organic products for shampoos and such.
After a private consultation, any hair surgeon will advice you to keep on with some medicine for a year and then it would be good to consider a hair transplant surgery. As far as I can see 3500-4000 grafts is enough for your head.
