At 6 days, it is almost certainly an infection. There are some crusts that are partially removed, and they could create a point for the introduction of bacteria. This is why I am obsessed with washing the hair immediately after the surgery. I want my patients to continue doing so every day. My goal is to keep the crusts off. […]

An FUE is treated just like a regular hair transplant with regard to the recipient area. Both the recipient area and the donor area have wounds that require daily washing with soap and water. The key is to wash off the crusts before they appear. Within 3 days of surgery, you can resume full activities, including […]
I am sure your surgeon has photos of you immediately after the surgery, so go back and see him/her and compare these photos to what you have now. Maybe you just washed better and took off the crusts from the area shown by the arrow, and it won’t show in the immediate post-operative photos.
You do indeed have terrible crusting resulting from poor post-operatieve washing techniques. An FUE is treated just like a regular hair transplant with regard to the recipient area, but the donor area has open wounds which require daily washing with soap and water. An FUE is treated just like a regular hair transplant with regard […]
Your post operative care is terrible with crusts that should have been washed off immediately after the surgery. Now you will have to shampoo it often and wait until the crusts come off on their own. Use gentle finger massage and do not pick the crusts off as they run the risk of losing the […]
This man is an actor who went for an audition the day after FUE. He combed his hair forward to cover the frontal FUE grafts. The back of his head was already healing and his hair style was created to bland it with the short hair in the back of his head. He landed the […]
This patient is one week after surgery and did not aggressively wash his hair so that crusts form around each graft. Crusting comes about because of leakage of serum from the recipient site. This can be washed off as it occurs with a good washing technique that we deploy for all of our patients?. It […]
The pictures below were taken three days after an African American had 1,000 FUE grafts in the frontal hairline. Please note the very small FUE wounds are barely detectable as are the grafts. He had no swelling and he had no crusts because we washed them off after the surgery.
The first photo set is a woman who had her hairline lowered the day before these pictures was taken. Please note that the washing was so complete and the recipient sites so samll, that the recipient sites could barely be seen so I labeled the frontal view where a faint outline of the recipient sites show […]
I just had anFUE hair transplant 4 days ago in Thailand by a good surgeon who is a ABHR member also, they advised me to spray the recipient area hourly for 3 days while I was awake, but for some reason I missed that part and for the first 24 hours after surgery I didn’t […]
The patient in the top view is 4 days after ~1850 graft FUE procedure. Clearly the transplants are barely detectable at this time. Even immediately after the surgery, there was no pink color to his scalp even just one day after the surgery because his skin was ruddy in color. The second patient (C) is 18 […]
I have been asked lately to show more pictures after the surgery so that prospective patients can understand what they may look like. Each patient is different because of hair and skin color. The lower the contrast, the less detectable it is, the grater the contrast the more detectable the ‘beard look’ of new hair […]
The pictures below reflect a very beautiful top model who had a hairline transplant in the past that she did not like. The previous hair transplant surgeon did not understand the differences between male hairlines and female hairlines, nor the need to put very fine hairs in the leading edge of the hairline. This surgery […]
