Hello, I am about 10 weeks post-op HT and have noticed several pimples in the transplanted area. I know this is common from reading the information, but I was wondering if this is a sign of impending growth of the transplanted hairs? Thanks

Hairlost,
IMHO, yes indeed those little "pimples" are a sign of new emerging growth. On average, the transplanted follicles rest for approximately 3 months and then they begin entering the (anagen) growth phase. Some patients come along a little sooner, some a little later.
If there was swelling and inflamation, oozing, etc., that would more of a sign of infection.
But it sounds like in your case, it is a good sign! Just wait and see what happens in the coming months, WOW!
Beast wishes to you in your new growth and keep us in the loop friend."Gillenator"
