so all the scabs are gone and you can see the tiny hairs growing in... just a little concerned about the results of the crown area.... I guess too soon to be worried...

Prepare to be worried for the next 6 months haha. Good news is that you can't really damage your grafts at this point. They are firmly set in place. It's a strange process because the grafts will grow for a month or 2 before most of them shed and fall out. Some will stay in and continue to grow but the majority will shed and not be seen again til around month 4.
I'm at month 6 and I know that that a percentage of my grafts will still be breaking through the skin in the next 3-4 months. The best advice I can give you is get a hobby, focus on work or do anything besides thinking about your head. You will still think about it but any amount of time you spend focusing on something besides hair is a win. The crown is the last area to grow in so results won't show there til months 9-12. Worst case you could do a small 2nd procedure in a year to fill in more of the crown. It looks great so far. I take 1mg finasteride every Monday, Wed and Fri. I don't take it daily to avoid possible side effects. Something you may consider.

Looking good so far. Glad to know that after two weeks, the scabs should be mostly gone. When I come back from my procedure in January, I'm trying to get a job at a hospital setting while I'm in school and was worried about the amount of time I would look like I have some sort of skin condition... don't want any hospital personnel or patients thinking I have something infectious, lol.

So far so good, just a little pain from the donor area.. other than that, I'm just waiting to see how it comes out.. People are telling me there is a difference already in a week.
what do you think?

Congrats on your transplant and hope it goes well for you. I couldn't help wondering how many grafts you actually had implanted as in my opinion the packing of grafts in your mid scalp and crown doesn't look that dense. Was you looking for more density in the hairline.

I wanted a more dense hairline, but the crown is actaullay pretty packed, just doenst show up as much because it is not as scabbed or red then the hairline.
