Post-Op Itching Driving Me Insane

[GalaxyShell]

Hi guys, 10 days post-FUE and my scalp itches like crazy. How do I resist scratching? Will aloe vera help or ruin grafts?

You can use a saline spray! DO NOT SCRATCH. Grafts are still settling until day 14.

Totally normal, ! Just don’t scratch since grafts are mostly secure but not worth the risk. Aloe vera might help, but check with your clinic first (only pure, no additives). Try saline spray, cold compress, or antihistamines if it’s really bad. Hang in there!

Itching is pretty common around day 10! Try not to scratch to avoid disturbing your grafts.
