Developed alopecia aerate after FUE near donor area. Dermatologist says apply Provate S lotion at night. Advice? (photos)

April 26, 2018
Asked By:Malik Asad in Pakistan, PK

After 10 days of FUE hair transplant, i started developing small alopecia aerate (hair fall) near donor area. What should i do?. My dermatologist says after looking at my pics that I should just apply Provate S lotion at night only. Will this portion of alopecia aerate have hairs again or will it spread more?. Whats treatment in general or precautions are recommended.

Everything seems normal. Hairs will fall out months after the transplant. You will start to see results coming in the next few months. It takes 12-18 mo. for the final results.

Post FUE 10 days, concern on blind pimple formed on my transplant area and no hair is seen. Suspect there is ingrown hair in it?
Bernard Tan, MBBS, MRCSB says:

Hi! Dried cellular debris often forms a golden yellow crust after a hair transplant, this tends to drop off in a few days and the underlying hair will usually grow out normally All the best!
