    Default New growth, outside recipient area post-surgery

    I'm curious if anyone else has noticed new "grow" -outside- the recipient area post-surgery. About 2 months ago I had a transplant into the crown, as my hairline is still good. However, afterwards, I started noticing darker vellus hairs inside an area inside each temple region. Now, I lost that hair when I was a teenager, and I'm positive I would've noticed this little forest between now and then. I've also been using minox all over and fin orally for about 5 years. So the only change I can think of was the surgery and the post-operative care.

    These hairs don't seem to be growing longer, but the are definitely much darker than any of the other vellus fuzz on my face.

    This is more than likely a mind trick as you'd not benefit outside the recipient area.
