Day 4 Still feeling great. Still very very little scabbing. I was expecting so much more. I am continuing spraying frequently with Dr. Cooley's graft spray and I think that moisture is what is keeping away the scabbing and flaking. I cannot express enough…

Day 3 Not a ton of change. Today was my first "cup" shower which felt great. I also learned that right out of the shower is not a good time to take photos as you can see- the temporary effect of the moisture makes everything look all oogy. Five minutes…

Donor Scar on Day 2 UNBELIEVABLE donor scar in my opinion. It is so clean and is already healing quickly. Not sure if it is the Acell, the surgical technique, or just me but whatever it is, I am happy.

8 Month Update Here I am at 8 months post-op... Bear in mind that the transplanted hair still has a lot more growing until it catches up with the native hair in length. I wear my hair about 6" long in the front; so far, the transplanted hair is only about 3" long…
