Looks great! At what density was the hair transplanted at?

Julius: Sorry, I didn't ask for that figure when I was in Vancouver so I'm not sure.

I got a question for you a few of you guys in this thread.

hair_me_out, jmg544 and sparse - you guys all had your HT hairline rounded to lower the recession in your temples

aaron1234 - did not, he just had the HT hairline go straight back into the natural hairs

I think all 4 of your HTs look great so far. I'm just confused if it's better to fill in the temples or not. How big do you think is the risk the your hairline receeds behind it?

Megatron: That's a really good question. I'm not really sure how risky it is but I'm sure Dr. Hasson accessed that risk by analyzing the hair to see what shape it's in. I have to assume he wouldn't have done it if he thought it was likely to recede away.

But I can't say this with 100% certainty, since I didn't ask him specifically about this. Did any of you other guys talk to him about it? Perhaps Jotronic could chime in with some insight.

Megatron,

Filling in the temples and simply strengthening them are two entirely different things. Filling the temples restores the temple closure that is found on women and juvenile men. Dr. Hasson simply brought the temples forward so that the profile of the patient is balanced. This is a far too often overlooked necessity for some patients in my opinion.

The hairlines for hair_me_out, jmg544 and sparse are still mature and age appropriate and not lowered too much but because the sides of the hairline had receded so much they needed to be addressed to match the placement of the new hairline. Had the hairline been higher then the temples would not have been brought forward as much.

I hope this makes sense.

I've looked through the blogs on Dr. Hasson's homepage. A lot of very impressive results there. No doubt he's definitely one of the top docs out there.

I'm still unsure about the temple strengthening / lowering / bringing forward or whatever you want to call it. Bottom line, it looks fantastic, but I wonder if there's a risk as these guys age that the hair will recede behind it. This would not only create an unnatural look, but once you commit to the temples than I guess you've got to chase them all the way back, hence creating a greater demand on limited donor hairs.

This is a decision I'm going to have to make for myself in only 2 short days and I'm still on the fence about it.

HMO,

Your hair is looking great for only 3 months! You're going to have an impressive hairline, thats for sure. Do you ever get questions from random people about your donor scar? Fortunately, I haven't yet...
