Hi guys! Im 2.5 month post HT and im frustrated. It looks terrible, I was promise density but its not dense at all. Before the HT i could have normal hair style without any body thinking im getting bold. Now I have to hide the area, the styling in the morning takes way more time than before and the results are way worse. What is youre opinion? Will I need more HT to get a "normal" look? Im starting to regret I ever did HT.....

Give us more details about your work. Doctor, graft count, hair count, etc. But your question seems really naive--don't you know that at 2.5 months you won't see any results yet? You probably look worse b/c you experienced some temporary shock loss of the native hairs in the transplanted area. It's WAY too early for you to be concerned about growth.

well It was performed in Scandinavia (its were im from). Some rumors say its were Bruce Willis did his HT. I dont know how many grafts i got, all I remember is that i was suppost to get 120-130 hairs or grafts dont know the difference per cm2.

Way too early yet...give it at the very least 6 months. This is actually when you head should look the worst if you were to go by the "textbook". Do some research on this site and you'll get the idea of what to expect in the future.

Try applying some Dermmatch to it, it might really help in your case. I think it would actually make your head of hair look absolutely normal.

Yes, I yearn to bathe in blue skies
And fall apart from the world of machines
Regain my feet and my pounding heart

Yeah, I would do more research if I were you. If you don't know what a graft is o.r how many grafts you got, and believe that Bruce Willis would go to Scandinavia for a HT (LOL), you should educate yourself more about this whole process. I hope it turns out well for you, but given your state of knowledge you're vulnerable to be misled. The measurement you've given of 120-130 hairs/sq. is a meaningless unit. You should know how many grafts per sq. cm. you received and how many grafts total were transplanted. Otherwise, what did you pay for? Best of luck

At 2.5 months, MAYBE 10 to 15% of the hair has started to grow. Usually this starts at month 3 and continues for another 6 to 8 months. You may be experiencing shockloss in and around the transplanted areas, so take a breath and relax. Given the outline of hair in the transplanted region, I would say that you did not have a very large session, and should anything be amiss, you can fly over the pond to see a Doc in the US/Canada.
Again, 2.5 months is way to early to start stressing out. Relax and wait another 3 to 4 months, as that will tell a better story.
Cheers!
