Urgent! Indents on my head. Have I damaged any grafts? (Photo)

October 11, 2015
Asked By:fazwoking in United Kingdom, GB

I had a FUE Transplant done 8 days ago, whilst in the shower yesterday I lightly massaged the transplanted area. Majority of the scabs rubbed off however I am worried that I have damaged or removed some of the grafts. As you can see in attached pictures, there seems to be indents on my head, with redness and blood. Have I damaged this area and how to I treat this moving forward? Please help
