This is a partial view of the donor scar and the recipient area after having about a 3200 graft transplant with Dr Feller. I'm not going to make a comment; i'm curious on what you guys have to say. Those larger scabs are from an infection that had pus under the skin that was drained with shampooing with GraftCyte. I was concerned about losing the grafts there, but I do see hairs poking through the scabs. Tomorrow I have to see Dr Feller to remove the staples. Did anyone have a sore scalp after their procedure where no grafts were placed? Right above my donor scar up to the crown area is sore, and some hair shed after the 2nd day. Still some sheds, but not as much, but the scalp in that area is still sore. Anyone experience this? By the way, I was not totally bald in that whole area. A lot was shaved, and grafts were placed in that area as well as reconstructing my hairline. Here are the pic links:

John,

Congratulations for selecting a first-rate hair restoration physician for your hair transplant surgery.

Without preoperative photos it will be impossible to predict the density of your surgery, but assuming you had no pre-existing hair, 3200 grafts in the frontal half should certainly give you a good cosmetic improvement.

I hope you'll take some time to post some pre-operative photos and that you will keep us posted on your progress.

Thank you also for creating a hair loss weblog.

Best wishes,

Bill

You mean high on the sides? It doesnt matter; I won't lose the hair there anyway. It's just not in the genes.

That scar does seem a little high, but the doc knows what he doing. With 3200 and your pre existing hair its gonna look great. Do you have numbers to share?
