For those who have undergone hair transplantation procedure, there are precautions they should follow, especially during the first few weeks when the scabs are formed, causing itchy skin. In addition, some patients may also notice the formation of pimples on the scalp. Usually, they appear after the hair falling out. The main cause is clogged pores consisting of sebum and dead skin cells that get stuck in the hair follicles beneath.
Medically, it has confirmed that pimples after hair transplantation are normal. They will disappear naturally if we know how to control and deal with it properly. Most of the pimples occurred are inflammatory acne or whiteheads caused by sebum clogging. In fact, the scalp acne pops up on everyone’s scalp, not only patients who have got hair transplantation.
To combat the pimples properly, the patients should regularly wash their hair with the shampoo provided by the clinic to control the function of sebaceous glands. Whenever you feel itchy, please be patient and try not to scratch the itchy area to avoid inflammation.
When the new hair begins to grow, such acne problem will gradually disappear. However, there may be some patients who experience severe acne problem. It is strongly recommended to go see your doctor in order to figure out the root cause and prevent the inflammation from affecting the transplanted hair grafts.
Again, the acne is a common condition. It doesn’t matter whether you have undergone the hair transplantation or not. The only important thing is to always keep your scalp clean.
