  1. looks about on track I am a week from 3 months and almost the same id say
  2. when the scabs form and rip out the grafts, does blood come as well? I had a lot of river and valley grafts and im pretty worried because it seemed like there were really large spaces in between
  3. What’s the reason for that? My doc says ur fine after a few weeks
  4. I really really hope so. I just don't understand how you can cause extreme pain to an area, tingling and everything without causing some damage. In reality, the tech has no idea what it is like to go through a 10 hour surgery, literally protect that area with your life for a month, be insanely gentle, and then have someone else take the liberty of hurting that area. No matter what, your mind is going to remember the pain of surgery, and undoubtedly be disturbed to the point of thinking all the money time and care was for nothing. Not to mention the waiting time after, it is a complete lack of regard for patient well being, even if it doesn't do any damage. What I'm struggling with still is that I know some people who have scarring alopecia have poor graft growth. Would the formation of new scar tissue not hinder growth? As in, any harm to the skin forms some level of rough exterior, and so wouldn't this essentially hinder growth, even if just minimally.
  5. Here’s my thinking though: the scar tissue from the grafts is still healing so therefore if your are rough with it, aka vigerous scrubbing, you can therefore create more scar tissue and thus hinder growth?
  6. Thank you for replying doctor. It occured about 5.5-6weeks after the procedure. I just wanted to see how the concealer worked, but then she proceeded to rub it off very, but no sking broken
  7. Tried to make the thread before didnt get any meaningful answers. Went to my clinic's office and paitent rep put concealer on the area and proceeded to wipe it off intensely to the point it was red and hurt really bad. Could this damage the skin since there is scar tissue. Makes sense that it would, someone change my mind.
  8. Looking for a doctor to answer here. Would vigerous rubbing, to the point of a tingling sensation and obvious discomfort, but not skin breakage affect hair grafts 6 weeks post op? Had someone apply toppic just to see what its like and they rubbed it off quite hard with alcohol wipes afterwards. I felt some pain and tingling and increased redness of that region, and am wondering if this could potentially damage my grafts? Thanks really worried
  9. buzzed my head so can't comb over it. Will try the concealer trick, but thinking u guys may be right in thinking it to not be all that noticable.
  10. Okay I am in need of serious assistance. I have an upcoming interview in a week and there's still obvious redness around my hairline having only had the procedure not even 6 weeks ago. Anyone have any experience with how to conceal something like that in a professional setting? Anyone have any personal experience with this? I know its not a huge deal but I just wanna see if there's any extra measures I can take
  11. only from UVB which is far lesser of UVA in terms of capacity to damage and ratio. That's why i'm concerned and looking for some anecdotal evidence of people who have walked in moderate levels of sun, say daylight for a few hours most days as is usual (but not in scorching weather) and still got great results. I really dont understand why a vet or two cant just chime in on the subject? please
  12. note the first sentence of the above message is meant for spaceman. the rest is for Harry
  13. just checked ur result, amazing so far! Okay yeah i do not think ive really damaged my grafts if that is allowed. Harry u said you went with konior? Im curious to see what he says since his website is super strict about sunlight. the article he wrote on it is kinda what got me tripping about it in the first place, so if you could maybe reach out and let everyone know in regards to the amount you walked around?
  14. damnn okay that does help. and how far along are you now
