    So next month it'll be the big day for you! I can imagine that once it's done it'll be a feeling of relief and then you can just deal with whatever happens re the recovery. I'd be really interested with how you get on, especially at what point you feel all signs of the procedure disappear, or at least when your able to disguise it.

    Are you requiring to be shaved? If so have you taken any pre-op strategies such as shaving your head now ready for people been used to seeing you with short hair? Therefore not having there attention brought to it when you return?

    I saw Dr Bisanga in london last weekend. A long day cos we made a day out of the trip down.

    He said approx 2500 to 3000 grafts as I expected and at the cost I expected. As I say I'm ready to go and would get this done tomorrow if it weren't for the recovery period. Dr Bisanga said 2 months as I planned is quite a long time and not needed, he said most people take 2 weeks. But from the photos I've seen I think 2 weeks for me is just too risky.

    Next step is to see what time I can take off work, I'm looking towards the back end of the year. I can't really go down the honest route of telling everyone, it'd be more of a case of doing it on the hope I can hide it, but if it is noticeable then a that point I'd need to come about it or deal with it the best way I can.

    Will you be taking photos and updating re your procedure? How many grafts are you getting done?

    Cheers
    Smokemeakipper, thought if get back to you with an update! I'm 2 weeks out now and it was my first day back at work today. Nobody noticed or said a word. I've posted my pictures on a thread Dr Krishnan on this site for all to see!
