rjnebbo,

I took the liberty of fixing the link to your blog in your above post. I've also added a link to your blog in your forum signature so that way, any time you post, members and guests visiting can find your blog.

Congratulations on your surgery with the high esteemed Dr. Siporin. Your postoperative photos look nice and clean. Given the amount of native hair you have remaining, I expect 1800 grafts will give you a cosmetically pleasing result.

I hope you'll keep us posted on your progress.

Best wishes and Happy New Year,

Bill

Thanks Bill!

One thing I would like to mention, that I did not expect, was the amount of swelling that happens. The Dr. mentioned it me but I blew it off. My forehead and at the side of eyes, eyebrows, (and where your sideburns would be) got real puffy and swollen for me so I put ice on each side of my eyes and forehead and kept them in place with a 6" wide ACE elastic bandage to keep compression on the area, this helped alot, however over night it would come back. So what I recc is to put the ACE bandage on over night (without ice) to keep compression on the area. I am using the Grafcyte product kit and it seems to work really well. I am also taking Whey protein mix with a whole slue of other supplements, NO VIT E! like MSM, L-Arginine, L-Glutamine, Pancreatin, Papain, Bromelain... oh heck here is the list:

Pre Op 2wk prior & Post Op Supplements
Vitamin A 3,500 iu
Vitamin C 325mg
Vitamin D3 200iu
Vitamin K1 30mcg
Thiamin 12.5mg
Riboflavin 7.5mg
Niacin 30mg
Vitamin B6 7.5mg
Folate 200mg
Vitamin B12 25mcg
Biotin 150mcg
Pantothenic acid 25mg
Calcium 50mg
Iodine 75mcg
Magnesium 75mg
Zinc 27.5mg
Selenium 100mcg
Copper 1mg
Manganese 2.5mg
Chromium 75mcg
Molybdenium 50mcg
Boron 1mg
Vanadium 25mcg
Choline 37.5mg
Inositol 12.5mg
Citrus Bioflavonoids 50mg

Post Op, everything above and add these:
Quercetin 500mg
Rutin 50mg
Bromelain 250mg
Papain 150mg
Pancreatin 8x USP 50mg MIN
Equivalent to 400 mg pancreatin USP
With the following minimum enzyme activity:

Protease 10,000usp
Amylase 10,000usp
L-Arginine hydrochloride 1,400mg
L-Glutamine USP 500mg

rjnebbo,

It looks like you are healing well.
The implanted area looks clean and the doctor gave you a nice hair line.

You results are going to be really good!
Good luck!

Looking great so far, you can expect nice results. I am at 4 months after my second HT with Dr Siporin and all is well, I am looking forward to the 6 months mark.
