Hi!

Need some advice from the excellent group of HT experts and veterans here. I am a nw6 who is 2 months post op from a HT in Europe, 3000 fue. Now I see little pimples(acne,zit, what ever you call it over there) in my head, about 10 of then. Is this good, ingrown hairs maybe? Should you "pop" them or just let them be?

And I also wonder If I should eat MSN, cause It make my existing hair on the sides blossom to much( I have it cut extremely short, shaved). I would like the new hairs to come in quick, but I dont want my sides to grow to much, cause that makes my baldness stand out more.

best regards from Europe

Soccer thug,

These "pimples" are normal. Popping them is ok as long as you do not pick or scratch at them (this can possibly dislodge the graft).

As far as the "MSN": I am assuming that you mean MSM. Yes, there seems to be enough evidence to support that MSM supplementation will enable the hair follicules to grow in faster and maybe even healthier, though I have not seen any hard research to prove this is so. If you are worried about the sides growing in faster than the top, my only advice would be to schedule a "trim up" appointment between actual hair cuts to keep the back sides under control. I do this every two weeks for the same reason and to knock the "scruff" off the back of the neck.

Hope this helps, and happy growing!

Thank You for the reply. Just another quick question:Is the "pimples" a sign that my hair is about to get going? A sign that is just a matter of weeks then should the new hair be all over my head? Please say it is so.

I will try to post photos when a friend more skilled with computers can help me. My doc gave me a CD with before pictures and soon I will take new ones.

best regards

Soccerthug,

It is easy to post pictures on the forum. All you have to do (after you have uploaded the pictures to a file on your hard drive) is go to the "New" tab at the top of your page. Under this tab, slect "Photo Album." Select which forum you would like to see your pictures appear under, and give an introduction (just like a regular post). After that, just upload the pictures from your hard drive.

If you have any more questions on how this is done, feel free to "Private Message" me. This reaches me by email.
