"Hi Plug here, first of my thanks to Phil, Dr Bisanga and the staff, sorry wish i could remember all the names but all were freindly, professional and Phil and Chris were very re-assurring. Phil is a mine of information and assurance and Chris (Dr) just comes across as a Doc who is completely confident and absolutely knows what he is doing.

I had two areas that bothered me. The plugs on top and the open hole donor scarring at the back. It doesn't show that much in photos but the donor scarring is extensive and if shaved down is more obvious. The recipient plugs bothered me the most. If I shaved you would see a crescent area filled with pits and ridges. If I cut it short you see what you see above. if I grew it, you saw an island of pluggy grafts. So from my point of view I had nothing to lose. The plugs had to go, there will probably still be some ridges and pits left behind but i'm hoping that the removal will help to even that out a bit. I am certain that it will still look better than the plugs.

Secondly I may as well have the redistribution to the donor holes in the hope that it will partially improve that area. I know that it will not make a huge difference due the huge area to cover and the unpredictable success rate with this into scar tissue, but every little helps in my opinion, and what esle am I going to do with the excised plugs other than throw them away.

Anyway, after two days, its already beginning to heal, have slight swelling around the forehead but no pain. For the future, depending on how well this turns out, I may look into laser resufacing, fraxel, or other methods to address hyper pigmentation and any remaining pitting and ridging. But its early days yet I'll just get through this first and take it from there."


He will be returning in a few days for his suture removal and I will update then with how his healing is going.
