Default 13 Day update

Six days post and the scabs are really starting to flake off now. It's amazing how clean the work is and I'm very happy to have nice, full temple points again! Not sure if I'm gonna buzz down this time. I might just let the buzzed areas catch up and trim my hair as needed and live under a hat for the next three months. Also had my first good night's rest. I felt more secure sleeping on the grafts and since I'm a side sleeper this has been tough.

Looking good, will you be happy with what you have, or you thinking of having more work done in the future?. I am thinking of getting work done on my temple points in round 2 with Dr Feller

Thanks Chris!

Irish, There are spots in the crown where it still looks thin, but I am 3 weeks shy of 12 months and from past experience I know my crown takes longer to develop. I also feel new growth in the crown still so I am quite optimistic it will continue to improve. That being said, I am absolutely done with HTs for some time now. This last operation should complete my hairline/temple/tp restoration (It's 100% HT and I have no desire to add density or lower it). Perhaps as I age I might need some touch-up work. But at this point I just want to enjoy having a nice-looking head of hair. Regarding your TPs: I can totally understand wanting to beef them up. They made a HUGE difference in framing my face. How aggressive do you want to be with them?

When i spoke with Dr feller he said i had about 5000 grafts left by strip then some fue on top, so i would'nt mind getting some more work done. One side of my tp is stronger than the other and it shows when my hair is longer. After seeing your work i have consulted with spex to go for round 2 with Dr feller at the end of the year. I'm kinda working off the numbers you have used, to be honest i never really thought the tps were that important til i seen your results and seen how big a difference they make to framing your face.

I had one side that was stronger, too. Yeah, TPs are like the secret weapon. I never even noticed we had them until mine were gone and now I am slightly obsessed with them, lol. They have a huge impact on framing the face.

Well your crown looks solid, and with 5k in the bank I'd say you can probably do something with them. This was actually my second TP procedure. The first was a 400 graft FUE, but I wanted to go much bolder this time around, plus I wanted to close off the temples and hit the forelock, so another strip was a better option for me. Let me know how your consult goes.

NHP, thanks bro. It's amazing, even though I look like a complete freak right now I feel so much more confident in my looks just seeing the outline of these TPs. Quick, funny side story: My 5 year old told everyone in her class that I bumped my head and had a boo-boo, so the teacher had them all say a prayer for me.
