Chest skin irritation and color change after FUE - 2 weeks post-op. (Photo)

January 14, 2018
Asked By:p_swiss in Switzerland, CH

I did hair transplant two weeks ago, chest hair was used for FUE (~ 1000 grafts). Though the chest scars were healing during the first week, since a few days ago it started itching. I applied some corticosteroid creams (called my doctor and he said it's ok). Now since two days ago I see that part of my skin around the red spots has turned blue/yellow-ish. Can the yellowish skin be an infection? Can the red spots intensity be due to new hair growing? How long should the scars take to heal? Thanks!
