Black Hairy Tongue After Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation: An Unrecognized Cutaneous Presentation of Graft-Versus-Host Disease

A user experienced significant swelling after a hair and beard transplant, possibly due to an allergic reaction or improper post-surgery care. Despite dissatisfaction with the clinic's handling of grafts and customer service, the user appreciates the clinic's skill in achieving natural hairline density.
