Day 21 : Three weeks after Hair Transplant

Three weeks have passed since the operation. I'm feeling a bit nervous because I constantly worry that my original hair is not going to grow back properly. I am also still wearing hats in public, but my friends have told me that it just looks like I've had a bad hair cut. The FUE area hasn't healed quite as quickly as I had expected, and the growth back looks a bit patchy. However, it's still very early days (hard to believe) and I promised myself I would reserve judgement for at least six months.

Still a bit painful on the back of my head when I'm lying down on a pillow. And also there is still numbness in both the donor and recipient areas. I sent these photos to the clinic and the manager told me that everything looks like it's on track. And other good news- I'm allowed to start swimming in week 4. I've already started exercise at the gym, but nothing too strenuous.
