Hi Bill...the pic is back up...

Its pretty hard to look close but I don't think so. Its just a pink strip... I never really wondered if my scalp was tight. I only found out about the scalp stretching through this forum this week...

thanks for checking it out. I only too out 200 graft nd focused more on the revision. I have been trying really careful to not stretch it. However, 2 weeks ago (7 weeks after the op) I was sleeping on an inclined pillow and slipped down when I fell asleep which had caused my head to tilt. Not sure if this has caused the stretching? Before the op I had a pretty bad scar. Not sure what size but maybe 5mm or more. (I not quite comfortable with sharing the doc's name at this stage yet...) How long do you think I need to wait before going for another revision?

so I've managed to take a photo of the left hand side. You can see this pink strip which appears to have no hair and is shiny/smooth?? (the hair you see over the scar is from the hair around the bottom and top crossing over)

Hello all, I had a scar revision with trich closure 2 months ago. Right now I see a definite pink strip about 8 to 10mm wide with no hair growing on it. Is this the actual scar? Will hair grow on this and if so how long before it does? I've been trying to take some photos but it pretty hard to focus on the back of your head and move your hair around at the same time

Hello All, I've been using a gentle shampoo like johnsons baby shampoo after my hair transplant. When can I start to use something like Revita? thanks J

thank you for the reassurance....I am on my trip now and feel like I can chill a bit more I am leaving the heavy luggage to the Porters!

alright I get the drift...laser are not worth it...whatever the price. funny thing is I keep hearing laser treatment for everything. even solving erection problems...heard it on the radio the other day. oh and smoking too

ok so its 5 week since my hair transplant and I have been super careful with lifting anything heavy, any form of exercise or placing my chin to chest. I had a donor scar revision...hence the extra concern. However today I had my laptop in my backpack and decided to go shopping. I ended up with a handful of bags and started to feel a slight sensation on the left side of my head. I may be paranoid but I started to get worried. You know how when you think you are feeling something and it starts manifesting. My question is how careful should I be now...at five weeks? Would be good to know as I am traveling next weeks and may have to deal with luggage. darn it really testing my patience...

Has anyone used a laser comb from neolight (you can get it at folica)...seems pretty cheap at 195? Is there a standard to making laser comb? There seems to be quite a few out there. Guess if it doesn't work...it would make a good bike or disco lights...

Thank you everyone for your insight...I really appreciate this. I have mentally memorized all the advice. The doctor is leaving the non dissolve sutures in for a few weeks and I am not lifting heavy anything for the next month! One other question, when is safe to start using Mederma after the operation?
