Day 60 - two months on
Two months tomorrow since surgery in Istanbul. Two months of avoiding (most of) my friends. Thankfully the World Cup has given me something to do and the English summer has been the usual rubbish so I haven't missed being out in the sun...
Not a huge amount of progress to report. No noticeable regrowth - but I am getting regular explosions of pimples, which hopefully means the new hairs are trying to poke through? I am using Bactroban on the pimples as recommended by Transmed, twice a day, but it's not keeping the zits at bay.
I think one or two new hairs have appeared, but they're no more than 1mm-2mm long so I'm not getting excited yet. On my right temple, there are still a few transplants which haven't yet fallen out. Indeed, most of the pimples are on the left temple, so I'm guessing that the right side is lagging behind a bit at present. Is that common?
At present, what with the zits and slow pace of regrowth, I'm going to to be hiding under a baseball cap for another couple of months, which is a shame but tolerable if I get a new head of hair at the end of it all.
On the plus side, the donor scar is undetectable, even though my hair is not particularly long.
