no im not on any form of medication/products although i know i should be. there are so many myths surrounding propecia or minoxidil-- such as once i start i can never stop or else it wont be effective? -- that i dont know where to begin

L'Anonyme, Thanks for the recomendation. Ill keep these doctors in mind if/when corrections are needed. Hairbank, im not sure how many grafts per square cm i got, but u can be sure thats one of the first things i am gonna ask when i go back to get the stitches removed. as for the length, i cut it short for the HT, which after reading some of these posts turned out to be a good idea. thanks for ur sound advice, and ill do my best to keep patient although its very very hard.

I had an FUT. You said that it looks similar to yours... how did urs end up coming out? You have any b4 and after pics i can check out?

After consulting with several different doctors, i found a private practice in Manhattan by Dr. Law and felt most comfortable with him.

hey all... i had just found this site but wish i had months ago. I am 24 and have been losing hair for about 2-3 years now. After having mulitple consultations with several doctors, i finally got my first HT 4 days ago, but after reading a lot of these posts im kinda secoind guessing it a little. I was a Norwood 2? so I guess my hairloss wasnt overwhelming, aside from overall thinning on top, i had the 'widows peak'. I had approx 800 grafts put in, exclusively on the hairline and peak corners. I could have done more but my doc wanted to achieve maximum density, especially in the hairline. I have great donor hair, so that wasnt a prob. I am not ignorant, knowing that with my young age, a second surgery is inevitable, once the rest of the hair goes. Any advice for me?? should i have gotten more grafts, or was it good to save the precious donor hair for the future?? Will I experience a lot of shock loss?? Gotta say that I am unsure with my decision
