Very nice, Bill.
Dr. Cooley performed your surgery, correct?
If your scar looks this good now, imagine a few months down the road!

Hi Brando,

Thanks for the comments! Actually, Dr. Katz from Washington Crossing, PA performed the surgery. I can't tell how the top will look as of yet, since obviously I'm only 4.5 weeks out and just like most people, it looks like I didn't get surgery on top.

But yes, he did an awesome job on the back. I can barely see the scar even when I pull up the hair, but it is obviously there...not white yet...still a little red. I will get my wife to take some pics of the actual scar either later tonight or over the next couple days!

All responses welcome! Support is always appreciated...we all need to stick together =)

Bill

side shot of scar....

What do you all think? I'm pretty happy with the way it's healing. Looks like Doc Katz did a great job on the scarring in my opinion...but I don't have much to compare it to.

Opinions or thoughts?

I'll keep you all posted too over the next couple months.

Bill,
your scar looks excellent for only 4 1/2 weeks out!

Scar looks great! Very subtle. Looks like you can still get away with a very short haircut. Hope your recipient area comes out just as well!

Thanks all! I appreciate the comments. By the way, I'm awful at math...I'm 6 weeks out, not 4.5 weeks out. I guess I was thinking 4 weeks and then half a month....oops! either way, for 6 weeks out, still looks good I think! Thanks all! Any other comments are welcome!

NIce scar and healing--- once the redness goes away you will not be able to tell. It takes 12 months or so for the redness to go completely away-- a thin faint white line.
