Bill, so far so good. I will note how different we all are in some regards. I mean, I'd never go out with the scar that visible. Good for you that you are that self-confident.

Also, it seems that you have suffered 0 shockloss. Am I correct?

Thanks for the comments guys!

Bushy,

Yeah, I don't mind showing my battle scar . I figured my hair state of being this short, however will be temporary as the whole point of having an HT is to grow it...at least a little bit right?

Regarding shockloss...if you look at the pictures of my other surgeries you will see that it's typical for me to start getting shockloss around 5 to 6 weeks and be really bad by about 8 weeks. History has shown for me that I typically start to grow new hairs by about 10-12 weeks and normally look pretty good by about 6 months. Will that be my pattern this time? I have no idea. Of course, I'm hoping for zero shockloss! But who knows!

Bill

1 month update:

Nothing new to report. Still some pinkness and some itchiness. Donor area feels much better over the last couple weeks...still some tenderness...a little bit of numbness, but significantly less. I have been working out at the gym, but doing mostly light weights. I only finally started to lift a little heavier the other day, but still not doing bench press free weights. Doing hammer strength and focus exercises to stay in shape

your scar looks great now. it was scaaaaaaary the first few days, even though I knew it will improve. I guess just the visual of it seemed scary.

Thanks John,

Yes, the scar is improving each week. There has been some shockloss around the scar, which of course makes it look worse than it really is. I guess the real test will be to see what the scar looks like in a year or so. I have been able to start feeling some hairs starting to grow through the scar....I think anyway. That's a good sign.

Bill

7 week update:

Still some pinkness and some itchiness. Been applying Aloe on my head every night...feels great. This surgery has yielded the LEAST amount of shockloss comparing to my others...I'd say there has been some in the mid scalp area, but it's minimal when looking at my 7 week pictures from the last 2 surgeries. I can't wait to see what happens in the next several months.
