Discolored Recipient Area Months After Hair Transplant – Hair Loss Information by Dr. William Rassman

It has been 3 months since my hair restoration surgery of 1600 grafts in my hairline. I am experiencing a prolonged purplish discoloration in certain areas of my recipient site. I can even visualize the line that was drawn for my new hairline although none of the new hairs have grown in. I am a Fitzpatrick type 4 skin type. It seems like the discoloration IS fading but slowly. Is this normal? Will it continue to fade? What can I do to speed up the process? I greatly appreciate your input and expertise. Thank you

Discoloration rarely lasts months as you report, but as you report it is fading and I would expect it to do so. Ask your hair transplant doctor about it. Good luck.
