My Temples Are Still Red and Cobblestoned 2 Weeks After My Transplant

I am now two weeks post op from my forth HT. I have had great results the last three times with the same doctor. This time he did some temple work. It is now day 15 and both my temples are still red and I have a slight cobblestoning look. I know that cobblestoning in it’s true form was mainly due to large grafts, grafts too large for the incisions ect. I also understand that a this is what really sets aside a good transplant doctor from another. Is it normal for me to still have reddness and some slight elevation in the temple area after 2 weeks. I was told that while the graft area still should be red now the skin should have smoothed out to an even level by now and I should have no traces of elevation in the transplanted area. If this is true does this mean that I’m going to have a permanently detectable transplant in the temple area?

thanks

Cobblestoning, in my experience, does not occur in follicular unit transplantation. In some patients redness does last weeks or even months, but with those who have had prior transplants, the history of redness from previous transplants should tell you what you need to know. I am unwilling to give you treatment recommendations without examining you. Check with your doctor about your concerns as your recent experience seems different.
