    Hi Optimist Thanks. I hope the growth will continue for a while. Yes, I did have redness for a good couple of months and I had a very itchy scalp I used Aloe Vera for that and that did help. I had taken 2 1/2 off work so when I did go back to the office I simply told everyone I had decided to shave all my hair off for a change.

    Link to Month 3 post operation. Hair Restoration Social Network - Hair Loss and Transplant Photos Signs of new hair at the 3 month mark. The pimples/redness is a combination of Minoxidil reaction as well as the new hair follicles coming through. I stopped minoxidil last month already and don't plan to use it again.

    I started with the foam a month after the op. Tried it for a month but then I have now stopped it.

    Hi it took me more than a month before the redness healed in the Donor area. I used Aloe Vera gel before going to bed and that definitely took away the burning sensation and gave me a good nights sleep.

    Hi 1966 I used Regaine 5% foam for a full month and my head exploded with pimples!!. I tried to bear it for a while hoping it would go away. But finally now given up as not worth the pain and discomfort. To be honest don't know why I started it in the first place as logic would suggest that if you've had a HT so by default if you have got new hair growing then they should grow permanently and you shouldn't need to use medication like Minoxidil. So I think I will stay clear and just let things happen.

    Link to Week 9 post op pics Hair Restoration Social Network - Hair Loss and Transplant Photos Although I have now completed the 3rd month post op I just had not had time to post Week 9 photos. So here they are in the above link. These are taken just over 2 months post the HT. The redness on the scalp is due to the reaction from Minoxidil. I have now stopped taking this as it is causing major irritation. Some growth has definitely started. Still early days.

    Link to Week 6 post op Pics. Hair Restoration Social Network - Hair Loss and Transplant Photos I have had considerable amount of shedding the past 2 weeks but not all hair from the recipient area has fallen out yet. Shedding is still taking place so it's possible I may lose most of the transplanted hair. I started getting a lot of dandruff so I immediately started using a very mild non soap shampoo. Sebamed anti dandruff. This has shown great results after a weeks usage. There is still redness in the donor area but it is gradually getting covered by the growth of new hair. Scalp is also itchy but I apply Aloe Vera which seems to help. Thats all the update for now.
