Do things look normal? Should I worry? I am a member on a hair transplant forum, and I've been receiving some pretty mean and condescending feedback, saying that it's basically a fail transplant and that I will need correctional surgery further down the line.

I can't help but worry, and expect the worst You have my thanks!
