Can I Pick Offf These Crusts 6 Days Post-Op?
No! If you pick off these crusts, you will also remove the grafts. I wrote a paper on this, and because this is a problem, I always advise the patient to wash immediately the day after surgery so crusts don’t form. I have developed a special washing technique for this.
