Hi All,
It's been 14 months since my last and final repair procedure with Dr. Wong. We were able to harvest an additional 1614 grafts, bringing me to a grand total of 6788 grafts over three surgeries. This, in my opinion, is somewhat of a miracle, considering the depleted condition of my donor area, due to the many ancient punch grafts going back to the late 1970s through the late 1980s.

The attached pictures detail my last procedure which focused on the punch grafted nape area, the corners of the hairline (particularly the part side) and the crown.

I've updated My Weblog which details my history. Please visit it often with family and friends. Thanks.
UNC

rtc,
Yes Sir, it really has been put to rest. I know some have seen my situation as kind of like being hooked on the process, but that's never been the case. The one thing hanging over my head (no pun of course) was the donor area repair. The additional in the crown and corners of the hairline were a true bonus. I'm loving it. A "swirly" and beer would be great. I still feel bad about backing out of that first gig.

Spex,
Back atcha' my friend. You've been a great help and inspiration to all of us.

Jim

Jim,

Thanks for posting. Keep taking your Proscar! The nape hair result turned out excellent as well as the crown and temple work. It's been a long journey and I'm very happy for you but please don't let me find you coming through my doors again unless it's just to say hello. You look great!

So this is it huh? How am I supposed to break this to the family?

It's all there for me now from the Elvis Temples all the way down to the rejuvenated nape. I couldn't be happier and you and your magnificent staff has made that possible for me. You're a great surgeon and I'm a lucky guy.
Jim

uncjim, I can't even believe how Dr. Wong repaired you!! You look great with awesome density in the front! Time to sculpt the front up a bit with some "Crew" product in the round container: )
