As far as returning to work, I just wore a ballcap and took some precautions the week after I had it done. I had no swelling and very little redness. What redness I did have had dissipated in about 4 days.
Also, my physician did not shave the recipient area. I had only the hairline and forelock done so there wasn't much to shave anyway! I left the crown and top of my head alone for now to see what medications can do for me. I have to say that so far they have done very well.
I won't say publicly who my physician was because I am pretty sure HairLossTalk.com has rules against that but if you want to see more of my pictures I can send them via IM.
We're cool with it SD. It's when we get a nublet poster singing the praises of a relatively unknown doctor that we begin to get a little antsy. Since you've been around, it shouldn't be an issue for you to give a name drop or two.
