    Question

    Hey Dale,

    Where did you read about spraying saline solution on the recipient area? I was just curious. It doesn't make sense since saline can actually act as a drying agent. Either way it won't hurt your growth, but I was curious about where you got this information.

    Thanks!

    Hey Spencer
    In my search for a remedy to keep my head a bit moist from scabbing too much, I found this web page that suggested the Saline solution idea.
    hairtransplantcosts. com/hairmaintenance.html
    I didnt know it acted as a drying agent,but I will admit it does soothe my head when I spritz it on.I dont overdo it, at first I was considering every few hours,now i just spritz a few times a day when I feel itchyness.

    Heres another site that promotes Saline solution to the recipient area, as well as that graftcyte stuff which appears very expensive.

    Again, I was just curious. If you think it's helping you then stick with it. It's not going to effect your growth either way.

    How are you feeling by the way?

    Good to hear that you're doing well Dale.

    I wouldn't "scrub" the scabs off if I were you. Hang in there, before you know it you'll be back to your normal life.
