Thx guys, so first off, I did all the traveling pre-op, and this is also what I recommend to you, after the procedure it is hard to sleep for the first few nights, besides, it is better to keep the conditions relatively sterile, due to open wounds on the head, which can be difficult while traveling.
It's been 2 weeks post-op, so I would like to share some pictures with you, so you can help me evaluate the progress.
The redness is still very visible, but from what I've read it's normal for people with fair skin. Donor looks much better.
Shading hasn't started yet, but I know it's ahead of me, so I'm enjoying this "honeymoon"phase.
