Hi everyone. I plan on having a 2000 graph procedure with Dr. Arocha to thicken up the frontal area Dr. Levett from MHR started about 7 years ago. I had 2 HT's with Dr. Levett totaling around 3000 graphs. I will post pictures. Perhaps HT technollogy has gotten better but after looking around the forum and visiting with Dr. Arocha a year ago I am no longer impressed with what I have. Sure, I would be nearly bald in the frontal portion (approx 60 cubic cm)had it not been for the first two procedures but 3000+ graphs from what I now understand shoud have been way more effective. I still have the see through effect in the light from all angles in the transplanted area. Oh well, I don't mean to say bad things about other doctors. I just wanted you to know where I am comming from so you can judge my results with Dr. Arocha. The forum is a great way to hold Doctors accountable for their good and bad work. I have heard good things about Dr. Arocha and he is recommended on this forum so I am looking forward to my experience. If this procedure goes well I will have another procedure to properly frame my face acording to his artistic suggestion. For right now I just want to fill in the frontal area. It's hard to believe 2000 graphs with this doctor will look better than the 3000 Dr. Levett did but I have faith in this guy. Thanks everyone for reading.

Its not entirely clear what was transplanted. I think that looks about right for 3000 grafts, if you were otherwise bald.

You are keeping it very short. To get the illusion of density, it layers on top of itself. Doesnt have same effect if short.
