I recently had FUE of 2550 grafts in 3 days (gap in between). The image attached is taken 7 days post op. I haven't washed the scalp yet. Does it look ok? Are those scabs or necrosis?

Answer: Are those scabs or necrosis? (photo) Thank you for the post. What you see seem like they are scabs. You mentioned it has been 7 days post procedure, and you have not washed the scalp yet? Every clinic has their own method of post care instructions, but usually wash is included the very next day (in a special manner without touching the grafts) so what you see is normal, considering you have not washed your scalp since your procedure. Please make sure you follow post care instructions you clinic d has provided. Thank you.

Answer: 3 Days post op Grafts contain the hair follicles that are transplanted. Your post operative care is terrible as the crusts remain caked onto your head. Be sure not to pick these off as you now have to wait until they fall off with twice daily shampooing and leaving the shampoo on your head for 5-10 minutes and gently massaging the crusts until they fall off in the next few weeks. Your doctors should have told you how to wash your hair immediately after the surgery so you would have looked like the picture in the web reference
