3 Months After First Procedure

This is a 3 month photo. Since my first surgery Dr. Umar has had me on an extended period of antibiotics as a result of me experiencing abnormal extended bouts of inflammtion and infection.

Dr. Umar advised me to visit my local dermatalogist so that he could examine me. I did so and he confirmed that I had been experiencing inflammtion and areas of infection. He prescribed me Bactroban cream, and I consulted Dr. Umar to report the local dermatologist's findings. Dr. Umar approved the usage of the Bactroban cream, and it eventually cleared the infection.

Dr. Umar told me not to worry, and that at only 3 months since my procedure, it was way to early to access the results. Dr. Umar advised me to continue to apply minoxidil, and give it more time. He once again reminded me that the area was heavily scarred due to 2 prior scalp reductions and this could affect the yield.
