I'm hoping I'm were I should be at 3 months. I'm also hoping for a lot of improvement in the next 3-9 months.

Most pics taken with no flash. 1 or 2 pics may have used flash but I cant remember which are which.

wantego,

Actually, I'd say you're ahead of the game for being just only 3 months. Things are really starting to take off for you!

Best wishes,

Bill

Thanks Bill. I never know where I should be at what point so any good news is great to hear.

wantego-

Looking right where you should be at 3 months. You have some real good growth for this early along. Damn, I wish I was at your stage.

Couple of question for you: did you where hats at all during the first couple of months? at what day did you start wearing a hat? When did you begin rubbing these stupid crusts off? Have you used rogaine at all during this period? After the 10-day of vitamin e oil, did you use anything on the recipient site? Finally, have you put anything on donor scar?

Thanks for the update!!
Eman

wantego--
I think you're looking really good for three months. I looked at your post-op pics and found them confusing. In some of them, it looks like your hair loss wasn't really too bad (NW3 or so). In others, like the shot taken on the surgery day, it looks like you are farther advanced. How would you classify yourself pre-op?
Judging from your surgeon, graft count, and recent pics, you should have an awesome result.

I agree different pictures look different because my hair was different lengths and the day of the surgery it was still slightly wet. Ironically I thought the day of the surgery my hair looked better/longer than the pictures taken months before when I was getting an appointment set up with my doctor. I'm never good with judging myself via the NW scale. I hoped that I was NW3 as well.

Looking totally fine, and, in fact, you are def ahead of the curve. Not to jinx you, but in another 3 months I'd bet you are going to be looking quite bushy!

Looking great at 3 months. Being a month ahead, I can tell you that the wait is really agonizing now! You can see growth but the hairs are too small to make a cosmetic difference yet, and you'll find yourself almost willing them to grow faster Stay away from mirrors .
