I had the MOHs surgery on my head on june 7th, as I had BCC on my
cowlick... they had to cut out a pretty good size piece, about 2"
diameter, and ended up doing the flap surgery for closure... The scar
is pretty decent size... kinda looks like a lightening bolt..

The doctor said usually the hair folicles go into shock due to this
trama, but usually start growing again in a month or 2... Was thinking
about using a generic "rogaine" to see if that helps to stimulate the
process more and faster...

Anyone have the same kinda of surgery on their head??? Was just
wondering how it turned out...

Seems to me if the doctor felt that Rogaine would help he or she would
have suggested it.
Call him/her or give it the time suggested.
