Oily Scalp After HT? (photo)

July 3, 2013
Asked By:Lansor

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.
