I've done FFS - worries.

[Snöfrost]

So I did FFS 23rd September and I am now at home. But when I got home I noticed that my scalp was totally numb. It was nothing I noticed at the hospital and they didn't tell me. Also below my lower lip, is also numb. All they said to me during the consultation is that I will get swollen and some post-op pain.

How long did it for you until the numbness is gone?

Have you told them and asked them ?

The numbness might take some time if its nerves reconnecting...

I don't have the opportunity to ask when it's weekend. I will ask tomorrow, but I was thinking to ask here with peoples personal experience too.

Hi Snofrost,
It took about a year to regain most of the feeling after my scalp advancement in 2007, and I still have some areas in my scalp that have only regained about 90% of the feeling.  I had FFS for my lower face on Sept 8th, so my lower lip is very numb also. Take care, and I hope you have a speedy recovery!!!
