Day 21 post HT : 4882 grafts - How did you cure your folliculitis
Had a hair transplant 3 weeks back and I’m now getting mild folliculitis/pustules on the transplanted area. They’re small red bumps with white centers, slightly painful/tender to touch.
I’m around day 21 post-op.
For people here who dealt with post-transplant folliculitis:
- What actually cured it for you?
- Did topical clindamycin or fusidic acid help?
- Did you use ketoconazole shampoo/lotion?
- How long did it take to settle?
- Did it affect graft survival or final density at all?
- Any mistakes you made that worsened it?
Would appreciate real experiences from people who went through this. Getting a bit anxious about protecting the grafts.
Thanks.
