Hey everyone,
I am getting an 800-1000 graft touch-up next week to pack some density behind my hairline and temples. I am going the non-shaven route for the recipient area. They will only be shaving the donor zone (I have attached a few pictures (wet and dry) so you can see the exact areas being targeted).
Has anyone had a non-shaven recipient procedure before? How much swelling can I realistically expect from just 1000 grafts? How long does a donor hair to start to look 'normal'? I'm hoping I can blend it with a fade, and my existing hair up top will cover the transplanted grafts.
I am planning on staying in the country for 5 nights after the surgery. I hope that giving it those extra days to heal will let the redness drop and the scabs settle before I fly home.
Any insight or tips would be massively appreciated.
Thanks!
