Mohs surgery skin graft is black, should I see my surgeon right away? (Photo)

Jon2017
I had surgery 12 days ago, and the dressing came off 5 days ago. After 5 days I'm starting to think that the graft isn't ok. My surgeon told me to come see him in a month after taking the dressing off. Should I wait another 3 weeks or try to see him ASAP. Will a graft like this still heal? Can it be re-opperated on if it is not ok?
