I have added some pictures taken 9-9-06. That is 8 months after HT#2 which added 2,200 to midscalp and crown. Density in crown was lower than more anterior areas and designed to convert bald crown to a thinning crown. This is 13.5 months p/o HT#1 which added 2,518 to frontal third. I am now on Propecia for 14.5 months.
Should be some more improvement hopefully in the next few months. I will post 10 month pictures if there is interest.
I now have sufficient hair in the crown to make Dermatch practical (which I did not have before). With Dermatch it looks fuller. If there is interest I can post some pics with Dermatch the next time I apply the stuff (which is usually just on weekends).

The difference is amazing to look at. Were you average donor density or above, because the coverage looks real good. What were the goals when you set out on these sessions? Thanks.

Mr. Joe,

I was told that my donor area was
"good" density at my initial consultation, but was not great.
Both procedures I was told resulted in a surplus of 1 and 2 hair grafts. Thus, my conclusoin is that my donor was at best average.
My goals were to cover as much bald scalp as possible, even if density had to be thin to get some coverage in the back. I am happy with my results thus far, but hoping that there will be further improvement for the second procedure since I am only at 8 months postop on that one and my understanding is that the crown area takes the longest for final results.

Pictures removed

Why did you remove the photos? It sounds like they looked good.
