Hello everyone.

The full story:

I started losing my hair shortly before turning 18, and i felt really weird/alien about it.

Tried different meds, with little result.

I was thinning all over, although my front was much weaker than my crown. Thus i went on meds again (propecia and rogaine for the crown) and i received a 1600 transplant for the front last november by a danish clinic.

The results were okayish, but there was no doubt that i would need a much larger subsequent procedure, and i finally decided upon dr. devroye of belgium.

The dr. and his staff was very likeable and i knew that i had made a good choice right away.

The plan was to lower and densify both hairline, temple and sideburn area as well as densifying the front and the middle.

Nothing was planted in the crown area, due to lack of grafts but also because the meds have helped tremendously and i think that within 6 months i have gotten full visual density back.

Mike,

Congratulations for selecting a world class surgeon to perform your hair transplant. Though the images are a little blurry (even the larger ones), the work looks ultra refined.

I expect you'll have a very nice result in several months.

Keep us postes and heal and grow well

Bill

Thx Bill, and sorry for the blur - it seems that 5 mega pixels is overrated :-P

If all hairs are going to grow, this is going to be a great result. This hairline is perfect.

The downside. I really hope you won't face much hairloss in the future. Than you would wish, you would have done a slightly more mature hairline.

But again, this is really looking good.

Still, dr. devroye did a good job of covering behind the areas, so that in case of future recession loss will not look unnatural.

That being said, i should probably expect a 3rd procedure in 5-10 years, which i am saving for.

I feel great by the way - minimal agony in the donor area and i have no swelling at all.

It is much easier sleeping than it was on my first op..

oh hey there adam, thanks for dropping by

And you are right, its harder to relate to older people because you cant really identify yourself with them. I must have spent alot of time searching the web for results of patients<25 years old.

I am definitely excited as we speak, and i cant wait for month 3..

Hey there eman, welcome to my thread.

I look forward to your 3-4 month pics, as your hairloss reminded me alot of my own.

I especially like how you had the sideburns fixed, as i believe that theyre crucial in framing the face. Hence i had the same thing made.
