Oops, I appear to have made a mistake. He got 6,700 in one session (I confused it with my 7,600 total). I guess it was a small session, after all.

Hi Bushy

How do you get away with shaving the top of your head and leaving the sides long? I'e had 2 smaller procedures of 1417 & 1476 as I needed to avoid shockloss and cannot shave my head to have grafts placed. Mt results are great but obviously a 3000 HT would be nice too

The pictures you see are just after surgery. I took a week off, staying home mostly and not going out without a hat. After having my staples removed on day 15, I went straight to my hair stylist. She tapered the sides down using a #4 on the sides, #3 and #2 toward the top. The overall look was acceptable, and I used some Dermmatch to help conceal the scar. Not a perfect fix, but ok for a day or so. I'm back under my hat now. Played tennis today! (Tomorrow was supposed to be my first day of allowable exercise per Dr. Hasson's post-op guidlines, but I cheated a bit.) Go figure, I hit the ball better than I had in months. Maybe the exrtra grafts helped balance things out.

Good luck with your growth!

Bushy,

Congrats, I looked at your pre and post OP pictures and it seems like Dr Hasson has done great job. I am very curious as to how your hair will look in few more weeks. Please keep us posted.

Anyway, right now I am also looking to get HT done and was wondering how much does H&W charges per FUs. Any pointers will be greatly appreciated

Thanks
Kevin

Hi, Kevin. Thanks for the compliments. I plan to post some more pictures in a week or so, after most or all of the new hairs have fallen out.

As for H&W FU prices, I suggest you give H&W a call and speak with Joe or Doug. They can discuss that subject more accurately than I.

Good luck with your research!

I've updated my blog with month 1, 2 and 3 pics. I suffered a ton of shock loss, but seem to be recovering now in month 3. I can feel the fun beginning!

Here is a comparison pic for a quick view:

Hi

iNDEED.. CONGRATS BUSH!!!It's a shame H & W requires you to shave the Recepiant area.. Many people like myself just can't do that due to having a profession which requires a "normal" look.. He results are truly amazing. I don't think I could get over 2500 grafts from my donor area due to laxity ( 1476 on my @nd left me feeling very tight)

CHEERS

Cheers
