Swelling re-occurring 11 days after FUE. Is that normal?

April 10, 2018
Asked By:scotaz in Scottsdale, AZ

Fue for frontal area was done 11 days ago. Had the normal swelling of the forehead 2-4 days after. Today on day 11 the swelling re-occurred. This time it is: more concentrated in the area above and between my eyebrows, smaller. I’ve been having sharp pain a few hours a day mostly in the back of my head behind my ears but also the whole head in general.
