Hello, I've searched all over the internet and I'm starting to lose hope that I'll ever find anybody who shares my problem. When I was young, maybe a year before I got into high school, I developed a cyst that had to be cut out from the back of my head. Unfortunately this left a bad car that I could only hide by growing my hair out long, which, felt ridiculous for me because I personally always had my hair cut short and I look like a mop with long hair. Anyway, once I got into college I decided enough was enough and cut my hair allowing the whole world to see my scar. At first it was nothing, I ignored the comments because usually people got used to it after seeing it for so long and stopped asking. But in truth I felt ashamed of my scar and began to increasingly wear hats to cover it up. A friend introduced me to hair transplant surgery, which I knew as being for balding men, and decided maybe that would be my ticket.
On the 8th of this month I went to Bosley in New York City and had surgery with Anthony P. DiBiase, who everybody I've asked at Bosley says has been in the field for a long time which I believe. Anyway, before anybody rants about how bad Bosley is I chose it because it's all I could afford and didn't know about its apparently bad reputation until after the fact. I did a strip, my donor scar stitches/sutures were removed on the 15th. The back of my head (as of the 17th), the graph area, is still covered in scabs and crust because I was VERY hesitant to touch it at all and I admit I did an extremely poor job of washing. My question is what should I do? Should I begin trying to remove the scabs now or let them fall off naturally? It normal to not see any hairs at this point? Please, I'm beginning to lose my mind over this because if this surgery fails it just means I have yet another damn scar on my head. I'm 21 years old male and haven't smoked or drank at all since the surgery or for a month before if that helps anyhow.
