Azad Cantona Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Hello all, Just wanted to get some feedback on how my recovery is going/looking from people that have had FUE transplant already. I had 3500 grafts done 4 weeks ago in Turkey with Longevita. Donor areas are growing much faster than the transplanted areas. I have a lot of acne on my donor areas and itching, transplanted areas don't itch but re starting to get some spots to. Any advice or feedback on my recovery so far would be appreciated. I have just purchased Regaine Monixidil 5% foam, and looking to start using that in next day or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member FoxtrotChi Posted September 20, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted September 20, 2020 Looks good. It’s going to look rough for the next 2.5 months, just prepare yourself. Other than that know you’ve done all you can do and it’ll start growing after 4 months! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Britanium Posted September 20, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted September 20, 2020 Worst phase now after surgery. It’s going to be another few months before you see any real growth. Your donor area looks like you could have had some shock loss? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted September 20, 2020 Administrators Share Posted September 20, 2020 It’s early, looks like you’re in the ugly duckling phase. Take monthly photos to track your progress, don’t expect any growth until at least 3 months. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

Azad Cantona Posted September 20, 2020 Author Share Posted September 20, 2020 Thanks for the replies all, appreciate it. The “ugly duckling” phase is affecting me a little psychologically but i am trying to remain positive and patient. I really want to use clippers on my donor areas to make hair all one length but i still have quite a bit of irritation and acne. Is it to early for me to start minoxidil? Anything else you all suggest i do during recovery period? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member ITA Posted September 20, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted September 20, 2020 yes, the donor area seems very worn, I shaved it after twenty days, but I had no irritation or pimples. For Minoxidil it is still too early in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
