Hi,

I am in 5th week post op.Got 2300 grafts through FUE in front of head to restore hairline..

Started minoxidil 5% foam 20 days before.My recipient area has become very dry and from 2-3 days scalp is peeling off.Is it normal or there is some problem. Please suggest

I am attaching pic also.Please have a look

My scalp was extremely dry and peeled...Dr Rahal told me its almost like your scalp has a bad sunburn...normal for some, but others probably never experience it...your picture is pretty bad so I cant really see it but if it looks like dandruff, probably normal.

This is actually fairly common post-hair transplant surgery. Have you discussed shampoo/scalp treatments options with your clinic? If not, I recommend giving them a call. By doing this, you can receive proper treatment and also ensure you're following their specific post-operative instructions properly.
