Hello all. I actually posted these pictures on another part of the site, but since this is a photos section, I thought I would post them here. I just got an HT and am at 3 days Post OP. The pictures I will post right now are from a month before the surgery and 2 Day Post Op Pics. <BR><BR>I'd love to get some feedback from you all, especially those who have had HT before. How does the post op look?

Falceros,
First off...congratulations and I'm glad everything went well. If you want my honest opinion....judging by the pics, it's not going to be a whole lot of coverage. That's just my opinion. |

Brando,
Have you had an HT before? If so, how many grafts did you have put in? I had 1600 put in in an obviously large area. I would assume that I won't have a full thick head of hair after one surgery, but there should be a noticeable difference shouldn't there? Falc

I had 1200 grafts put it on the hairline only. You can see my pics on the Photos section of this forum. 1600 in a large area will be a noticeable difference, I just don't think it will add alot of density. My opinion was based on the pics alone, the scabs in the pics look like they're pretty far apart.

Brando,
Yes, I see what you mean. Although, as long as there is a noticeable difference, I will be happy for now. I am guessing I will go back for OP 2 in about a year, and do another 1600. My doc only does 1600 at a time max for safety, etc. I have noticed that others in here have had Mega Sessions, etc. Would you recommend that? I don't know if I would or not...I only ever had one HT and the discomfort was bad enough from 1600 removed from the back, etc...I don't think I can imagine 3000 at a time. Plus, for healing purposes in the back for a minimal scar etc, I was told it is better not to do mega sessions. What do you think?

i'm not sure what "safety" reasons your doc is talking about, but 1600 is not a large procedure. Sounds more like convenience or staff limitations. In my opinion, going for the largest strip possible in the first procedure is the best method (up to 4500 - more than that I'm concerned about survival rate), assuming you have the characteristics for it. The healing and recovery period for a 1600 FU procedure and a 3000 FU procedure will be the same, but much more to show for it. For a second procedure, you can probably obtain quite a bit more than 1600 and still get the finest of scars, if you go to a top doctor who can accomodate the larger session.

Hello everyone. I have added a photo of the top of my head on Day 9 to give you all an update. I really like that shot too, because the scabs are just about healed, but it appears that as the grafts grow in, that it will blend with my current hair nicely. At least that's what it seems. i am new to this and this is my first HT, so if anyone has feedback, please feel free to share!
Falc
